Read all instructions before using this Humidifier.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR PERSONAL INJURY, ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS:
ALWAYS be sure the plug fits tightly into the outlet. When plugs fit loosely into outlets, they may slip partially out of the outlet and create a poor connection. This may cause outlets to overheat and create a potential fire hazard. Outlets in this condition should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
shock hazard ALWAYS unplug the power cord when servicing, cleaning or moving the Humidifier. DO NOT use the ON/OFF switch as the sole means of disconnecting power. NEVER leave children unattended when the Humidifier is on or plugged in. ALWAYS turn off and unplug the Humidifier when not in use.
shock hazard BE CERTAIN that the power source for the Humidifier is 120V AC. DO NOT plug the Humidifier into 240V or other power source.
The Blue Plug^™ on your Lasko Humidifier is a safety feature. It contains a non-replaceable safety device (fuse) that should not be removed or tampered with. To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury, DO NOT attempt to remove, replace, repair or tamper with the originally supplied plug. If the Humidifier has stopped functioning, it may be due to the safety device incorporated in this plug.
shock hazard THIS HUMIDIFIER HAS A POLARIZED PLUG (one blade is wider than the other). This plug is designed to fit into the outlet only one way. Match the wide blade to wide slot in outlet and FULLY INSERT. DO NOT attempt to bypass or defeat this safety feature. If the plug does not fit in the outlet, consult a qualified electrician. The outlet may need to be replaced.
