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.

Before starting your humidifier, place one Mineral Absorption Pad flat on the 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 10-15 minutes). Use tongs or long tweezers when handling the pad to prevent burns.

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.

Filling

Remove the Water Tank by grasping handle and pulling straight up. Set aside (Fig. 1).

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. 5). DO NOT USE HOT WATER. Doing so may damage the humidifier.

Distilled water is not necessary but should be considered in hard water areas to prevent mineral build-up.

Replace the fill cap by turning it clockwise .

DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. Turn the Water Tank right-side up.

NOTE: Do not add any medication or other additives to water.

NOTE: When carrying the filled Water Tank, please use the handle and place your other hand under the tank for additional support.

Position the Water Tank in the humidifier and push into place (Fig. 6).

Some water will flow into the Removable Tray when the filled Water Tank is properly in place.

Once the filled Water Tank has been positioned, do not attempt to move the humidifier. To avoid leaking, you should never move the humidifier while filled with water.

CAUTION: Do not pour water into the grille on the top of the humidifier. Doing so may damage the humidifier or cause personal injury.

Honeywell HWM-335, HWM-450 Mineral Absorption Pad Instructions, Filling, Do not Touch ANY Surfaces Until They have Cooled

HWM-331, HWM-330, HWM-450, HWM-335 specifications

The Honeywell HWM-450, HWM-335, HWM-330, and HWM-331 are a series of innovative humidifiers designed to create a comfortable indoor environment by maintaining optimal humidity levels. Each model offers unique features, technologies, and characteristics that cater to different consumer needs.

The Honeywell HWM-450 is known for its high output humidity capabilities, making it ideal for larger rooms. It utilizes a warm mist technology that boils water to produce steam, which is then cooled slightly before it’s released into the air. This process not only adds moisture but also helps in killing germs and reducing allergens, promoting healthier air quality. The HWM-450 also features customizable humidistat settings, allowing users to select their desired humidity levels, ensuring comfort throughout the year.

Next, the Honeywell HWM-335 is perfect for medium-sized spaces and combines efficiency with ease of use. It employs a similar warm mist technology as the HWM-450 and includes a quiet operation mode, making it a great choice for bedrooms or nurseries. The HWM-335 also features a built-in medicine cup, which allows for the use of inhalants to help relieve cold and allergy symptoms.

The HWM-330 is another compact model that focuses on simplicity and user-friendliness. It offers a smaller tank capacity but is efficient for personal use or smaller areas. The warm mist technology ensures clean and safe moisture distribution. This model is lightweight and easy to carry, making it a versatile option for those needing portable humidity control.

Lastly, the Honeywell HWM-331 is designed for enhanced convenience. It comes with a digital user interface and an adjustable humidistat that allows users to monitor and control humidity levels easily. This model also includes a built-in filter that captures impurities from the water, ensuring that only clean vapor is released into the room.

Across all models, Honeywell emphasizes ease of maintenance, with features such as dishwasher-safe parts and easy-to-fill water tanks, making it simpler for users to keep their humidifiers clean and functional. With various models tailored for different room sizes and needs, Honeywell's humidifiers enhance indoor air quality while providing comfort for all users.
