Step 3
Bi-Weekly Maintenance
Removing Scale
1.Fill the humidifier base with water and add one
2.Clean all interior surfaces with a soft brush. Dampen a soft cloth with white vinegar and wipe out the base to remove scale.
3.Rinse thoroughly with clean warm water to remove scale and cleaning solution.
Disinfecting Base
1.Pour 1/2 gallon of water and 1/2 teaspoon chlorine bleach into the base. Let solution stay for 20 minutes, carefully swishing every few minutes. Wet all surfaces normally exposed to water.
2.Empty base after 20 minutes. Rinse with water until bleach smell is gone. Allow unit to dry out completely.
NOTE: The water bottle should be cleaned in the same manner as the base. Rinse thoroughly with clean water after all steps are complete.
End of Season Maintenance
1.Follow
2.Remove filter.
3.Let humidifier dry completely before storing.
4.Store in cool, dry location.
5.Install a new filter in clean
humidifier before next season begins.
NOTE:
Positioning the Unit
The humidifier should be positioned with the back (cord exit side) and sides, at least 2 inches away from the wall. Air needs to enter through all of the louvers in the housing assembly in order for the humidifier to operate at peak efficiency.
NOTE: Be sure humidistat (located approximately 4 inches outside humidifier body on power cord) is free from obstruction and away from any hot air register.
NOTE: Due to release of cool, moist air from humidifier, it is best to direct air away from thermostat and hot air registers and to position humidifiers next to an inside wall. Unit should not be placed where cold air from outside walls or warm air from a hot air register blows directly on it.
Step 2. Electrical Hook-Up
Locate nearest 120V A.C. wall socket in the location desired, preferably on inside wall. With the humidifier in the desired location, route the electrical cord safely so no one will trip or knock over the humidifier.
Plug in the electrical cord.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, only plug humidifier into a 120V A.C. outlet. Do not use extension cords.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this humidifier has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
