STORING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
Allow the appliance to dry completely before storing. Store the appliance in a dry
location. Do not place any heavy items on top of appliance during storage as this may
result in possible damage of the appliance. Store the cord in a clean, dry location away
from metal objects. Always check the plug before use to assure metal items have not
become attached.
ƒ Save the box for off-season storage.
ƒ Make sure the tank, water basin and water tank cap are thoroughly dry before
storing.
ƒ If water is left in the unit during storage, it may evaporate completely and leave
deposits that can prevent the unit from operating properly.
Leave the water tank refill cap loose to prevent the water cap (see figure 4) and
gasket from sticking together. This will prolong the life of the gasket.
TROUBLE SHOOTING

humidifier continues to not operate please call our service center (see toll free
