Step 3. Water Fill
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, do not pour or spill water into control or motor area. If controls get wet, let them dry completely and have unit checked by qualified service personnel before plugging in.
After the humidifier is positioned where it will be operating, you are ready to fill the humidifier. The bottle tilts out and away from the base. Take care not to bump or damage fill valve assembly on the bottom of the bottle.
Invert the bottle. Press the valve stem button into the bottle and turn clockwise to lock in open position. Place bottle under the faucet. Fill the bottle, being careful not to allow any debris to get in the valve seating. Once the bottle is full, press the valve stem button and turn counter clockwise to release and close.
CAUTION: Use only EPA Registered Bacteriostat . Under no circumstances should you use water treatment products designed for Rotobelt or Ultrasonic humidifiers.
Place the water bottle back into the humidifier base. When positioned properly, the plunger will open and the water will flow into the base. The base will hold the entire contents of the water bottle. Once the bottle is empty, remove it and repeat the filling process. The humidifier is now filled to capacity. For less frequent filling let the humidifier exhaust both the water from the bottle and the base before filling.
Cleaning and Maintenance
WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock, always unplug humidifier before cleaning or servicing. If humidifier is not unplugged, fan could start after housing is removed.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, fire or damage to humidifier, use only cleaners specifically recommended for humidifiers. Never use flammable, combustible or poisonous materials to clean your humidifier. To reduce the risk of scalds and damage to humidifier, never put hot water in humidifier.
CAUTION: Local water purity varies from area to area and under certain conditions water impurities and airborne bacteria may promote the growth of microorganisms in the reservoir of the humidifier. To retard bacteria growth that may cause odors and be harmful to your health, use only recommended replacement filters. Also use EPA registered Bacteriostat.
