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 recommended 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.
1)Turn unit off by turning the humidistat and the fan speed switch to the off position.
2)Unplug electrical cord from wall outlet.
3)Lift chassis unit with outlet grille from cabinet and place on a hard, flat surface where it will not be bumped. Use care to avoid damage to the internal float lever.
Cleaning the Water Reservoir:
4)Carefully lift the wick frame assembly from cabinet, allowing any water to drain from the wick into the water reservoir. Place wick assembly in sink to finish draining. Handle wick carefully, paper is fragile when wet
5)Remove the lift rod and float assembly. (see Assembly Section for instructions.)
6)Remove any remaining water in the reservoir. After the water is removed, add 1 gallon of fresh warm water and 8 oz. of undiluted white vinegar. Clean all interior surfaces using a soft brush and the cleaning solution. Let the solution stand for 20 minutes. Remove the solution and wipe out the bottom with a soft cloth dampened with white vinegar to remove any remaining scale.
