How Your Humidifier - Kenmore 2.0 & 3.5 gallon warm mist humidifier 997.151230 Owner's Manual

HOW YOUR HUMIDIFIER WORKS
Water flows from the tank(s) into the humidifier base.
The water is then absorbed up the absorption sleeve where it
is heated, purified and converted into warm mist. The warm
mist then rises up through the mist chamber, dispensing
comfortable, soothing, invisible moisture into the air. During
this process, unwanted minerals are trapped within the
absorption sleeve material.
PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Locate an appropriate, level, flat surface near an electrical
outlet for placement of your humidifier. Be sure to place your
humidifier on a water-resistant surface, since water can cause
damage to furniture. Position the humidifier so the power cord
does not become a tripping hazard. To ensure proper
ventilation, be sure to keep the humidifier at least 6 inches
from a wall or any other object.

Mist Chamber Locking Device i
Remove the tank(s) from the base by grasping top handle.
Rotate the mist chamber locking device to unlock the mist
chamber (see illustration above). Lift the mist chamber off the
base. Locate the absorption sleeve attached to the heating
element on the underside of mist chamber. Be sure the sleeve
is tightly attached to the heating element. Loosely attached
absorption sleeves may produce less humidity and cause
malfunctions.

absorption sleeve.
Refer to pages 8-9 for proper absorption sleeve attachment.
Replace the mist chamber. Turn locking device to secure mist
chamber to the base. Replace tank(s).
