CLEANING
D A I L Y
We recommend cleaning the vaporizer daily by wiping all surfaces dry using a paper towel or soft sponge. It is normal for mineral deposits to collect at the bottom of the Base. Deposits may appear as black flecks and should be rinsed out after every use.

The vaporizer should also be cleaned once a week, according to the instruc- tions listed below.
Cleaning involves two steps SCALE REMOVAL and DISINFECTING. Be sure to perform these in the proper order to avoid harmful chemical interactions.
•Unplug the vaporizer. Wait at least 10 minutes for the unit to cool.
•Remove the Steam Assembly and set aside.
•Discard any remaining water from the Base.
•Clean all outside surfaces with a dry, soft cloth. DO NOT USE WATER. THIS MAY DAMAGE THE VAPORIZER OR CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.
