Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT: We recommend cleaning your humidifier every two weeks. Follow instructions.
Humidifiers provide comfort by adding moisture to dry, heated indoor air. To get the most benefit from the humidifier and avoid product misuse, follow all instructions carefully, specifically the operation, care and maintenance guidelines. Please note this is an electrical appliance and requires careful attention when in use.
In addition, if you do not follow the recommemded care and maintenance guidelines, microorganisms may be able to grow in the water within the humidifier's reservoir.
Caution: Disconnect power before cleaning or servicing unit.
WARNING: It is very important that cleaning solutions, such as bleach, bacteria treatment, or descaler which could be used to clean the cabinet are not sprayed or applied to the chassis/power pak assembly. Additionally, do not immerse the power pak in water or any other solution. These solutions can cause a serious electrical malfunction of the humidifier.
1)Turn unit off by turning humidistat completely counterclockwise.
2)Unplug electrical cord from wall outlet.
3)Unplug interlock plug from chassis/power pak receptacle.
4)Lift off top frame and remove both water bottles.
NOTE: Water bottles must be removed before chassis/power pak to prevent possible switch lever damage.
5)Lift chassis/power pak unit from cabinet.
REMOVING SCALE
6)Carefully lift wick from cabinet, allowing any water to drain from it into water channel.
7)Remove any remaining water in channel with a sponge. Fill water channel with one 8 oz. cup of undiluted white vinegar. Let solution stay 20 minutes. Clean all interior surfaces with soft brush. Dampen soft cloth with undiluted white vinegar and wipe out water channel to remove scale.
8)Rinse water channel thoroughly with water to remove scale and cleaning solution before disinfecting.
