General Safety Instructions - Kenmore Sears Evaporative table top Humidifier 42.14121 (3 gallon) Owner's Manual

iNTRODUCTiON
Congratulations on your choice of the Kenmore Model
42.14121 Evaporative Humidifier. This humidifier
produces COOL, moist air. Before using your humidifier,
take a few moments to understand and appreciate
the benefits of maintaining your home at a proper
humidity level.
Air that is too dry is not only uncomfortable, but it
can also deprive your skin, house plants and
furnishings of valuable moisture. Dry air in your home
can cause the build-up of static electric charges.
This humidifier is designed to pull dry air through the
Evaporative Filter Pad system, a quiet fan then
disperses INVISIBLE MOISTURE-BALANCED AIR into
your house. Minerals and bacteria from the water are
trapped inside the FILTER Pad so that they do not
"mist" into the room and create white dust
accumulation on room surfaces.
Your Kenmore Humidifier comes fully assembled and
ready for immediate use.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electrical shock and injury to persons, including the
following:
1. Read all instructions before using
this humidifier.

This product is equipped with a polarized
alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power outlet only one way. This is a SAFETY
FEATURE. If you are unable to insert the plug fully
into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact an electrician to
replace the obsolete outlet. DO NOT do
anything that will defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug.
This humidifier may not work properly on an uneven
surface. Always place this humidifier on a firm, flat
surface. SEARS cannot accept responsibility for
damage to property caused by water spillage.
