Mineral Absorption Pad Instructions
CAUTION: HOT SURFACES MAY CAUSE SEVERE BURNS.
DO NOT TOUCH ANY SURFACES UNTIL THEY HAVE COOLED.
Water contains minerals and other particles. The amount of minerals varies dependent on your local water supply. It is common for these minerals to stick to your humidifier’s Heating Plate and in turn decrease the performance of your humidifier. Mineral Absorption Pads trap the minerals and help prevent stubborn mineral buildup on your Heating Plate.

After the humidifier has been operating, the water and all internal parts will become HOT, and caution should be exercised when handling the Mineral Absorption Pad. Please allow the humidifier water and all internal parts to cool down (at least
•The life of the Mineral Absorption Pad will vary, depending on the mineral content of the water being used. Using normal/moderate mineral content water the Mineral Absorption Pad should be changed after approximately 2 weeks of continuous use. Again, the life of the pad will vary dependent on your usage and mineral content of your water.
•For indications that your Mineral Absorption Pad needs to be changed, examine it AFTER the water has cooled down to see if it is still soft and pliable. If the pad is stiff and hard you should replace it. Another sign that indicates your Mineral Absorption Pad must be changed is scale buildup on your heating plate.
