humidity control on the recommended

ty is at a relatively high level. To test the
unit under this condition, turn Humidity

been tested, set Humidity Control to
medium or desired level.

If humidity level in home is sufficient, the
humidifier will only operate with Humidity
Control set on maximum.

level is at the normal requirements for that

conditions. The table below shows recom-
mended indoor humidity levels. The figure

ty percentages which correspond to the
