Humidifier Operations

Your new Sears humidifier is designed to satisfy home humidity requirements

through the principle of evaporation of water into the air.

After water is added to the bottles, the fil-

ters begin to soak up the water and

become totally saturated in approxi- mately 30 minutes. Air is drawn in from the rear of the humidifier, then passes through the filters by means of two circu- lation fans. As air passes through the fil- ters, moisture is absorbed into the air and then released through the top of the humidifier. This moist air is released in the

form of vapor. No water droplets will enter the home. All evaporation into the air takes place in the humidifier, which means that the residue left by evaporating water is not passed into the home, but remains in the filter.

CAUTION: Use only 42-14900 EPA Registered Bacteriostat available from SEARS Retail store. Under no

circumstances should you use water

treatment products designed for Roto belt or Ultrasonic humidifiers.

CAUTION: .Keep your humidifier

clean. While humidifiers do not cause colds, some studies suggest that dirty humidifiers can cause cold-like symptoms in some people. To reduce the risk of this, we recommend you clean your humidifier weekly with Humidifier Cleaner 42-14713 and use Bacteriostat 42-14900. These are available at your local Sears store.

Assembly

Your new Sears Kenmore humidifier is

completely assembled for you to use. Remove the packaging material from inside your humidifier and follow the

instructions of this owner's manual for

proper usage. The packaging material is located under the fan assembly. Remove the packaging material and discard.

Location Instructions

WARNING: For your own safety, do not use humidifier if any parts are damaged or missing.

Step I

Place humidifier on a fiat level _urface in area of house where most humidity is needed, or one which would likely result in moist air being circulated throughout the house such as near a cold air return. P.lacing the unit level is very important if the humidifier is located on carpeting. NOTE: The 13 gallon humidifier contains water bottles, the weight of the bottles in the front of the cabinet may sink the cast- ers deeper in the carpet. This will keep the wate_evel forward in the cabinet. The water level float (located at the rear of the

Icabinet) may not sense the water and the fill light will be on and the unit will not energize, if this happens, the unit will need to be leveled in order for the humidi- fier to be energized.

NOTE: It may be necessary to purchase leveling coasters from your local hardware store. The coasters should be positioned under the front two casters of the humidifier.

Moist air (humidity) produced will disperse into the whole house, but area closest to unit will have the highest humidity. If the unit is positioned close to a window, con- densation may form on the window pane.

If this is not appropriate the unit should be repositioned in another location.
