Important Safeguards

READ BEFORE USING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
1) This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit only one
way into a polarized 120-volt AC, 15-amp outlet. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. If an
extension cord must be used, it should also accept the wide blade plug
and meet this electrical rating.
2) Do not place the cord under rugs, in traffic areas, or near heat sources.
3) Do not use the humidifier if the cord is damaged.
4) Always unplug the power cord before filling, cleaning, servicing, or
when the unit is not in use to prevent possible electrical shock.
5) Do not place the humidifier near loose drapes, combustible materials, or
heat-producing objects.
6) This humidifier is UL listed with Bemis by Essick Air brand evaporative
wicks in place. To maintain your UL safety listing, see your service
center for all repairs. Use only Bemis by Essick Air brand replacement
wicks and chemicals. To order parts, wicks and chemicals
call 1-800-547-3888.
7) Regular cleaning is required. Refer to the CARE AND MAINTENANCE
section in this manual.
