IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS HUMIDIFIER

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the fol- lowing:

1.Always place this humidifier on a firm, flat and level surface. This humidifier may not work properly on an uneven surface.

2.CAUTION: To reduce the risk of burns, place this humidifier in an area where it is not accessible to children.

3.Do not place the humidifier near any heat sources such as stoves, radiators, and heaters.

4.Before using the humidifier, check the power cord for any signs of damage. If the cord is found to be damaged, DO NOT USE and return the humidifier to the manufacturer under the warranty agreement for repair.

5.This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of shock, this plug is intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature.

6.To disconnect the humidifier, first turn controls to the OFF position, then grip the plug and pull it from the wall outlet. Never pull by the cord.

7.A loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and a distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.

8.The humidifier should always be unplugged and emptied when not in operation or while being serviced or cleaned.

9.Never tilt or attempt to move the humidifier while it is operating or filled with water. UNPLUG the humidifier before moving.

10.This humidifier requires regular cleaning. Refer to the CLEANING instructions provided. Never clean the humidifier in any manner other than as instructed in this manual.

11.When a humidifier is used in a closed room or small rooms, check periodically for prop- er ventilation, as excessive humidity can cause condensation stains on walls.

12.Do not direct moisture flow directly at individuals, walls or furniture.

13.Turn the humidifier OFF if you notice moisture on the inside of your windows. For proper humidity reading use a hygrometer, which is available in many hardware and depart- ment stores.

14.DO NOT touch the steam vapor. Steam can cause burns.

15.DO NOT BLOCK THE MIST GRILLE. THIS WILL DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER.

With its innovative features and cutting-edge technology, the DWM-250 has become a popular choice for those seeking relief from the heat while minimizing energy consumption and environmental impact.

One of the main features of the Duracraft DWM-250 is its ability to cool efficiently through the process of evaporative cooling. This technology works by drawing warm air through moist pads, allowing the water to evaporate and in turn, cool the air that is circulated into the room. This method not only reduces the temperature but also adds moisture to the air, making it an ideal solution for dry climates.

The DWM-250 is equipped with a powerful fan that delivers a robust airflow capacity of up to 2500 cubic feet per minute (CFM). This ensures that it can effectively cool larger spaces, making it suitable for living rooms, offices, and outdoor areas. Additionally, the unit features adjustable air outlets that allow users to customize the air distribution according to their preferences.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the Duracraft DWM-250 is its energy efficiency. Unlike traditional air conditioning units, which can consume a significant amount of electricity, the DWM-250 operates using a much lower power consumption, making it an eco-friendly option. This feature not only helps to lower energy bills but also reduces the overall carbon footprint associated with cooling.

The DWM-250 is designed with user convenience in mind. It includes a large water tank capacity, reducing the frequency of refills and providing longer uninterrupted cooling. Furthermore, the unit is portable, equipped with wheels for easy mobility, allowing users to move it from one room to another or to outdoor spaces with ease.

For added functionality, the DWM-250 comes with multiple fan speed settings, allowing users to select their desired cooling intensity. It also features a convenient control panel with easy-to-use buttons, making it accessible for individuals of all ages.

In summary, the Duracraft DWM-250 stands out as an effective, energy-efficient, and user-friendly evaporative cooler. Its advanced cooling technology, powerful airflow, and portability make it an excellent choice for anyone looking to beat the heat while being environmentally conscious.
