WEEKLY CLEANING

We recommend cleaning the humidifier once a week, more often if you have hard water or notice a build up of impurities or detect unpleasant odors.

NOTE: THE USE OF OTHER WATER TREATMENT PRODUCTS MAY DAMAGE THE FILTER OR HUMIDIFIER.

Cleaning involves two steps SCALE REMOVAL and DISINFECTING. Be sure to perform these in the proper order to avoid harmful chemical interactions.

•First, turn off and unplug the humidifier.

•Remove the Water Tank and Motor Housing.

•Remove the Natural Cool Moisture™ filter from the Base.

•Discard any residual water from the Base.

•Clean all outside surfaces with a dry, soft cloth. DO NOT USE WATER. THIS MAY DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER OR CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.

NOTE: Remove filter before cleaning

Failure to remove the filter during cleaning will destroy the filter

STEP ONE:

SCALE REMOVAL

DISHWASHER-SAFE BASE

1.Fill the Base with either:

•one cup (8 ozs, 250 ml) of undiluted white vinegar

OR

•Honeywell® humidifier cleaner, part no. HAC-101, following bottle instructions

2.Let solution stand for 20 minutes

3.With the vinegar or Honeywell® humidifier cleaner in the Base, clean all interior surfaces with a soft cloth or brush to help remove scales.

4.Rinse the Base thoroughly with water to remove scale and cleaning solution.

STEP TWO:

DISINFECTING

WATER TANK

1.Fill the water tank with:

•1 teaspoon of household bleach

•1 gallon (4 L) of water.

Pour some of this solution into the Base.

2.Let solution stand for 20 minutes.

3.Rinse with water until the odor of bleach is gone.

Dishwasher Cleaning: Your base can be cleaned in your dishwasher. If you choose to use your dishwasher, it's important to follow these instructions:

•Place base ONLY IN TOP RACK of your dishwasher.

•Dishwasher MUST only be operated on COOL CYCLE - NO HEAT. (Note: Using your heat cycle can result in damage to your base).
