Your Aprilaire humidifieris controlled by a Manual Humidifier Control (see Figure C). The Manual Humidifier Control is installed either in the cold air return duct or on an interior wall of the home. With the Manual HumidifierControl, it is important to anticipate a drop in outdoor temperature and reduce the setting accordingly to avoid excessive condensation, just as with the Digital HumidifierControl installed in Manual Mode (see page 5).

To determine the indoor RH, slowly turn the knob clockwise and counterclockwise and listen for 2 clicks. The indoor RH is within the range of the 2 clicks.
