To Operate the Controls
Humidity Control: i Jk
Adjust the amount of humidity depending
on your needs. The humidifier will turn on
and off as required to maintain level of
humidity selected. A medium setting is rec­
ommended, but there are times when low
or high amount of humidity may be pre­
ferred. For constant operation of humidifi­
er. MAX allows for the maximum amount of
humidity to be evaporated into the air con­
tinuously.
IMPORTANT: Water damage may result if
condensation starts to form on windows or
walls. Humidity Control setting should be
lowered until condensation no longer
forms.
Desired Humidity Light
When the selected humidity level is met,
the fans will shut off and the green
"Desired Humidity" light will illuminate.
When more humidity is called for, the fans
will turn on and the Nght wilt go out.
Speed Control
The unit is adjusted from “OFF" to "3" with
a rotary speed control. The higher the air
flow speed, the more water is evaporated
and released into the air. Low speed (1) is
the quietest and is provided for conditions
that may not require as high an evapora­
tion rate.
Fill Light
When the humidifier is almost out of water,
the Fill light will come on and the fans will
automatically shut off.
Manual Dryout
At the end of the humidification season or
if you do not plan to run the humidifier for
one week or more, you can override the
automatic shutoff function to completely
dry the humidifier cabinet out.
To do this, simply slide the float retainer
located at the back of the humidifier cabi­
net to the top position of the slot it is locat­
ed in. This will hold the float in an upward
position and the tans will run until you turn
the power off.
NOTE; Be sure to position float retainer to
the normal operating mode (lowest posi­
tion in slot) for humidifier operation.
Below is a diagram of the slot the float
retainer is located in at the back of the cab­
inet.
