Care and Cleaning

CAUTION: ALWAYS TURN OFF THE POWER SWITCH AND DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD FROM THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET BEFORE CLEANING.

Humidifiers provide comfort by adding moisture to dry indoor air. For maximized benefit from your Vicks® Humidifier, follow instructions carefully. Please note that this is an electric appliance and requires careful attention when in use.

Tap water may contain pollutants and minerals (scale) that can deposit on the inner surfaces of the Humidifier. Such scale can accelerate the growth of microorganisms and can impair the performance.

Daily Maintenance

2. Remove Tank & Motor Housing and empty Base. Be careful to place Motor Housing upside down to prevent damage to Pick-Up Tube.

3. Rinse Base and Tank, wipe clean, and dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
