Location Instructions
WARNING: For your own safety, do not use humidifier if any parts are damaged or missing.
Step 1
Place humidifier on a flat level surface in an area of house where most humidity is needed, or one which would likely result in moist air being circulated throughout the house such as near a cold air return. Placing the unit level is very important. Special attention should be given to unit's level if the humidifier is located on carpeting.
Moist air (humidity) produced will disperse into the whole house, but the area closest to the unit will have the highest humidity. If the unit is positioned close to a window, condensation may form on the window pane. If this is not appropriate the unit should be repositioned in another location. NOTE: Due to release of cool, moist air from humidifier, it is best to direct air away from home thermostat and hot air regis- ters. It is best to position humidifier next to an inside wall. Hot air registers and cold air from outside walls can affect the effi- ciencies of the controls. Unit should not be placed where warm air from a hot air register blows directly on unit.
Step 2
The humidifier should be positioned with the back (cord exit side) and left side, at least 2 inches away from the wall. Air needs to enter through all of the louvers in the housing assembly in order for the humidifier to operate at peak efficiency.
At least 2" from wall
Electrical Hook-Up
Locate nearest 120V A.C. wall socket in the location desired, preferably on inside wall. With the humidifier in the desired location, route the electrical cord safely so no one will trip or upset the humidifi- er. Plug in the electrical cord.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, humidifier should be plugged directly into a 120V A.C. outlet. Do not use extension cords.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this humidifier has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse plug. If it still does not fit, con- tact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
