Location instructions
WARNING: For your own safety, do
not use humidifier if any parts are
damaged or missing.
Step 1 :
Place humidifier on a flat level surface in
an area of your house where humidity is
needed most, or in an area which would
likely result in moist air being circulated
throughout the house, such as near a
cold air return.
Placing the unit level is very important if
the humidifier is located on carpeting.
NOTE: The humidifier contains water
bottles. The weight of the bottles in the
front of the cabinet may cause the front
casters to sink deeper into the carpet. If
this happens, the water level will be
higher towards the front of the humidifier,
and lower towards the back. The water
level float (located at the rear of the
cabinet) may not sense the water so the
flashing "F" will be displayed and the unit
will not energize. If this happens, the unit
will need to be leveled in order for the
humidifier to be energized. To level the
humidifier when located on carpet, place
the included caster pads under the front
two casters of the humidifier only.
NOTE: Due to release of cool, moist air
from humidifier, it is best to direct air
away from home thermostat and hot air
registers. It is best to position humidifier
next to an inside wall. Hot air registers
and cold air from outside walls can affect
the efficiencies of the controls. Unit
should not be placed where warm air
from a hot air register blows directly on
unit.
Moist air (humidity) produced will
disperse into the whole house, but area
closest to the unit will have the highest
humidity. If the unit is positioned close to
a window, condensation may form on the
window pane. If this is not appropriate
the unit should be repositioned in another
location.
Step 2:
The humidifier should be positioned
with the back (cord exit side), at least
5 centimeters away from the wall.
Air needs to enter through the louvers in
the rear panel in order for the humidifier
to operate at peak efficiency.

Operating Tips for Best Performance
1. Position the humidifier at least 2 inches
(5 cm) from any wall and away from
any heat registers.
2. Do not restrict airflow from entering or
exiting the humidifier.
3. Use only EPA registered bacteriostat to
retard bacteria growth that may cause
odors and may be harmful to your
health.
4. Perform regular cleaning as instructed
in "Cleaning and Maintenance" section
of this manual.
5. Replace the evaporative wicking filters
at least once per humidification
season or more depending on water
conditions in your area.
