Heating Element

All traces of Clean-Away®on both the element and the tray must be thoroughly rinsed off before disinfecting. Inspect the heating element (see Figure 8) for scale buildup. If present, please see "Special Maintenance - Heating Element" for further cleaning instructions.

DO NOT ALLOW WATER TO ENTER THE AIR OUTLET GRILL OR ANY OTHER OPENINGS.

5. Disinfect the water tank and tray using a solution of one teaspoon of chlorine bleach in 1 gallon of water. Let solution soak for 20 minutes, swishing every few minutes

to wet all surfaces. Empty the tank and tray; rinse

thoroughly until bleach smell is gone. Replace the tray in the base (Figure 7), then replace the misting chamber in the unit, making sure that the latch has been locked in position. Fill the tank with fresh water and replace it into the unit.

6. Resume normal use.

SPECIAL MAINTENANCE HEATING ELEMENT

Should the output drop or the "EMPTY" light illuminate with water remaining in the tank, it will be necessary to remove scale buildup on the heating element. Remove the misting chamber by rotating the latch and lift it from the unit’s base. Place the misting chamber on its side. The heating element will now be visible (Figure 8). Using a non-metallic brush, scrape away the scale buildup on the element. Follow steps 3-6 to complete cleaning.

Note: The above special maintenance is required due to water hardness.
