IMPORTANT INFORMATION and FEATURES
Your Recirculating Console Humidifier is an EVAPORATIVE TYPE
HUMIDIFIER. This means that the air being drawn through the
moistened filter naturally evaporates the water and disperses
INVISIBLE MOISTURE into the air. This type of humidifier
DOES NOT PRODUCE MIST, WATER DROPLETS, STEAM OR
EXCESSIVE CONDENSATION associated with other types of
humidifiers.
EXCESSIVE HUMIDITY CAN OFTEN LEAD TO UNANTICI-
PATED PROBLEMS. Air containing water droplets or mist can
create a good habitat for the growth of mold and mildew.
Misting units often oversaturate the air, while the Lasko Recirculating
Console Humidifier reaches a maximum humidity output level
without oversaturating. With a properly operating Evaporative
Humidifier, the evaporation rate increases naturally when the
air is dry. When the humidity in your home is high, moisture
output automatically decreases to help prevent damaging
condensation.
The Watershow Viewing Window provides a visible way for you
to know that your Recirculating Console Humidifier is operating.
As air passes over the filter, the humidity in the room will in-
crease, and the water level in the Unit will begin to decrease.
Unlike misting humidifiers, the Evaporative Filter in your Recirculat-
ing Console Humidifier also traps unwanted minerals that reside
in normal tap water. This filtering also assures there is NO WHITE
DUST dispersed into the air.
NOTE: A few droplets of water may be present in your hu-
midifier as a result of our quality testing prior to packaging
and shipment.
When using electrical appliances, especially where children are
present, basic precautions should always be followed in order
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons.
Including the following:
1. To prevent possible electrical shock, always turn the unit
off and unplug before filling, servicing or moving.
2. Always place Humidifier on a stable, flat, level surface. Lo-
cate Power Cord so the Humidifier or other objects are not
resting on it. Keep the Cord away from room traffic.
3. Do not place Humidifier near a heat source such as stoves,
radiators or heaters.
4. This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this
plug is designed to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If plug
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
defeat this safety feature.
WARNING: THIS PLUG IS A SAFETY FEATURE. TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND PERSONAL IN
JURY, DO NOT REMOVE, REPLACE, REPAIR OR TAMPER
WITH THE ORIGINALLY SUPPLIED PLUG. IF THE FAN
DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY, IT MAY BE DUE TO THE
SAFETY DEVICE INCORPORATED IN THIS PLUG. RETURN TO
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
