How to Assemble and Use
IMPORTANT: Your Hamilton Beach humidifier is designed for easy use and maintenance. Make sure that the water tray and filter are properly installed before filling the tank and operating the humidifier.
DO NOT USE THE HUMIDIFIER WITHOUT THE FILTER IN PLACE!
Selecting the Proper Location
To prevent the risk of injury or damage to the humidifier and furnishings and provide the best possible performance of your humidifier, follow the placement guidelines below:
DO:
•Place the humidifier on a flat, stable, waterproof
surface.
DO NOT:
•Do not stand, sit, or place any objects on
the humidifier. It is not designed
to support additional weight.
•Place the humidifier along an inside wall near an electrical outlet where it is out of the way and it and its cord do not present a tripping hazard.
•Select a location with adequate air circulation.
•Leave at least six inches (15 cm) between the humidifier and any walls or furnishings. Failure to do so could cause poor air circulation and mildew or moisture damage to walls or furniture.
•Unplug the humidifier and empty the water tank and tray if the humidifier is to be moved, or will not be used
for several days.
•Do not block the air intake and exhaust grilles. This will cause poor performance and may cause moisture damage and mildew
•Do not use in a small, enclosed space or in an area with a humidity level above 50%. Excessive humidity could result.
•Do not place on or near heat sources such as stoves, radiators, or heaters, or in direct sunlight.
•Never place the humidifier in a closed room. A closed room may result in excessive humidity.
•To reduce electrical noise and interference, do not place on or near, or plug into the same outlet as, TVs, baby monitors, or cordless phones.
