Clean the humidifier every day after you use it. Follow these steps:

2Drain any remaining water from the humidifier.

3Wash the humidifier, outlet connector, and air tubing in warm water, using a mild detergent. Do not use hot water. Partly fill the humidifier and shake vigorously.

4Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow the humidifier to air dry completely in a warm place (not in direct sunlight).

Clean the humidifier thoroughly every week as follows:

1Soak the humidifier in a solution of one part vinegar and 3 parts warm water for 1 hour.
