Using Your Humidifier

1.Be sure unit is full of water and plugged in.

2.Set air flow control to desired fan speed.

3.Set Humidity Control to medium position (halfway between and ) )

NOTE: Humidifier should operate with humidity control on the recommended medium setting (midway between and ). If it does not, the humidity is at a rel- atively high level. To test the unit under this condition, turn Humidity Control all the way to clockwise and unit should begin to operate. After the unit has been tested, set Humidity Control to medium or desired level.

Allow 24 hours for humidifier to adjust.

If humidity level in home is sufficient, the humidifier will only operate with Humidity

control set on or near position.

IMPORTANT: Water damage may result if condensation starts to form on win- dows or walls. HUMIDITY control setting should be lowered until condensation no longer forms.

4.If humidifier stops running and the Fill Light is not illuminated, the humidity level is at the normal requirements for that setting or it is adjusting to the home conditions. The table below shows rela- tive humidity percentages which are recommended at various outdoor tem- peratures. The figure below shows approximate relative humidity percent- ages which correspond to the various settings of the Humidity Control

Operating Tips for Best Performance

1.Position the humidifier at least 2 inches from any wall and away from any heat registers.

2.Do not restrict airflow from entering or exiting the humidifier.

3.Use liquid EPA-approved bacteriostat to retard bacteria growth that may cause odors and may be harmful to your health.
