A) On-off switch and
regulation of mist output
Turning the right­hand rotary switch clockwise switches
the appliance on and at the same time regulates the mist
output from low to high.
B) Hygrostat (setting the humidity level)
The desired humidity level can be set by turning the left­
hand rotary switch clockwise. A relative humidity of bet­
ween 40% and 60% is recommended. The accuracy of the
measurement is +/­ 5%. As soon as the humidity exceeds
the desired setting the appliance switches off. The appli­
ance does not switch off if the rotary switch is turned all the
way to the right as far as the arrow symbol. This activates
the continuous operation function.
C) Empty indicator
As soon as the tank runs out of water, the red empty indica­
tor lamp turns on and an alarm is sounded. Please read the
chapter “Filling with water” for more information.
Operation 131 Water quality maintenance
An Ionic Silver Stick © (16) keeps the water free of harmful
bacteria. The anti­microbial action of silver is used. The
Ionic Silver Stick releases silver ions in the water over
a long period (approx. one year). It‘s self­regulating and
maintenance­free. Look at picture 16 for the position of the
ISS in the base part of the unit. Do not touch the water in
the base during operation! Switch off the unit first. Contact
your local retailer or check our website www.air­o­swiss.

Replacement of the demineralization
cartridge
Always unplug the unit before removing the
water tank. Do not touch the water in the base
during operation!
The water tank is equipped with a demineralization cartridge.
This cartridge has to be replaced every 2 – 3 months. If
the water is very hard, it may be necessary to replace the
cartridge earlier. White dust around the device is a sure sign
that the cartridge needs replacing. Please note white dust
is not harmful. If white residue still forms around the device
after a new cartridge has been inserted, please make sure
that the water you are using is untreated. If the water flows
through a decalcification system (natrium added to remove
calcium) in the building before it is used in the humidifier, salt
can precipitate as white dust around the device.
Option A: replace the resin
• Remove the cover (Caution: the mist outlet is loose!).
Remove the water tank from the base and unscrew the
water tank cap (17).
• The demineralization cartridge is attached to the inside
of the tank cap. Unscrew the cartridge from the cap by
turning it counter­clockwise (18). Important: do NOT
dispose of the water tank cap!
• Open the cartridge (19).
• Throw the content into the waste (Attention! Disposed
resin can make the floor slippery!) (20).
• Pour the resin into the cartridge (22). (Attention! Make
sure that no granules get in the center of the cartridge.
It can clog the unit).
• Close the cartridge (24).
• Screw the cartridge on the water tank cap (25).
• Screw the cartridge on the bottom side of the water
tank, put the tank on the base tray (26).
• Soak the new granules for 24h before use! The resin
must soak up water to reach full performance!
