5. When cleaning the water basin do not place the nebulizer directly under the water
tap.
6. Never immerse the unit in water or let water enter the fan vent or any other
openings.
7. It is normal for water to be in the water basin. However water must not get inside
the central body. If this should happen, take the humidifier to an authorized service
center before using it again.
8. Clean the inside of the water tank at least once a week, as follows:
A. Fill the tank with clean water adding a few drops of bleach or white
vinegar with water solution. Close the tank completely with its cap and
shake by holding the tank with both hands. Do not hold by handle while
shaking the tank.
B. Rinse thoroughly.
Note: Water accumulated over long periods may create bacteria and mildew (fungus).
It is important to remove the water in the humidifier if the humidifier is not being used.
Always use fresh clean water when filling the water basin.
9. To clean the water float unscrew (see Fig.11) the plastic cap on the pin by pulling it
up (see Fig.12). Remove the water float and cap and clean by wiping the parts with
a soft damp cloth. Replace the parts by first putting the water float onto the pin and
then pressing the plastic cap on the end of the pin to secure the float.(see Fig.13).
Do not use excessive force.

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.
Save the box for off-season storage.
Make sure the tank, water basin and water tank cap are thoroughly dry before
storing.
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 and gasket from
sticking together. NOTE: The gasket is the white rubber ring inside the water tank
cap. Keeping the cap loose will prolong the life of the gasket.
