Select a firm, level, flat location — at least six inches (15 cm) from any wall for proper air flow (Fig. 1).

Place the humidifier on a water-resistant surface, as water can damage furniture and some flooring. Honeywell will not accept responsibility for property damage caused by water spillage.

Lift up on the Motor Housing to remove and set aside (Fig. 2). Remove the Natural Cool Moisture™ filter from the base before filling the unit with water. Soak in a sink full of cool water to help reduce mineral build up and place back in the humidifier while wet. DO NOT SQUEEZE OR WRING OUT THE NATURAL COOL MOISTURE™ FILTER. To help extend the life of your filter repeat this step each time you fill your humidifier.

Turn the water tank upside down so that the fill cap is facing up; unscrew

the fill cap by turning it counter-clockwise and set aside.

Fill the water tank with COOL tap water (Fig. 3). Distilled water is not necessary as the water is filtered by the Natural Cool Moisture™ filter. DO NOT USE HOT WATER. Doing so may damage the humidifier.

Replace the fill cap by turning it clockwise . DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. Turn the water tank right-side up.
