EVAPORATIVE
DIGITAL RECIRCULATING HUMIDIFIER
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Congratulations on your purchase of the evaporative High
Performance Digital Recirculating Humidifier. Featuring
the unique use of pump driven water circulation, this unit
provides exclusive features that no other humidifiers offer.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
and FEA
Your Recirculating Humidifier is an EVAPORATIVE TYPE
HUMIDIFIER. This means that the air being drawn through the
moistened filter naturally evaporates the water and disperses
INVISIBLE MOISTURE into the air. This type of humidifier DOES
NOT PRODUCE MIST, WATER DROPLETS, STEAM OR EXCESSIVE
CONDENSATION associated with other types of humidifiers.
EXCESSIVE HUMIDITY CAN OFTEN LEAD TO UNANTICIPATED
PROBLEMS. Air containing water droplets or mist can create a good
habitat for the growth of mold and mildew.
Misting units often oversaturate the air, while the Lasko
Recirculating Humidifier reaches a maximum humidity output level
without oversaturating the air. With a properly operating Evaporative
Humidifier, the evaporation rate increases naturally when the air is dry.
When the humidity in your home is high, moisture output automati-
cally decreases to help prevent damaging condensation.
The Watershow Viewing Window provides a visible way for you to
know that your Recirculating Humidifier is operating. As air passes
through the filter, the humidity in the room will increase, and the
water level in the Unit will begin to decrease.
Unlike misting humidifiers, the Evaporative Filter in your
Recirculating Humidifier also traps unwanted minerals that reside
in normal tap water. This filtering also assures there is NO WHITE
DUST dispersed into the air.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, especially where children are
present, basic precautions should always be followed in order
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons.
Including the following:
1. To prevent possible electrical shock, always turn the unit
off and unplug before filling, servicing or moving.
2. Always place Humidifier on a stable, flat, level surface. Locate
Power Cord so the Humidifier or other objects are not resting on
it. Keep the Cord away from room traffic.
DO NOT pour water into Grill. DO NOT spill water on Control Panel.
Water should only be poured into the Unit using the Jug.

3. Do not place Humidifier near a heat source such as stoves,
radiators or heaters.
4. This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one prong is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this
plug is designed to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If plug
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
defeat this safety feature.
TURES
5. Never tilt or attempt to move the Humidifier while it is operating.
6. Always direct air flow away from walls or furniture. Excessive
moisture may cause damage.
7. Humidifiers require regular cleaning to maintain proper operat-
ing conditions. Refer to CLEANING section for proper cleaning
procedures.
NOTE: A few droplets of water may be present in your humidifier
as a result of our quality testing prior to packaging and shipment.

assembling.
