Using Your Humidifier
1. Remove The Care-Free Humidifier™ Evaporative Humidifier from its packaging. Read
and Save the Instructions.
2. Place the humidifier on a hard, flat, water resistant surface. Always place the humidifier
at least six (6) inches away from walls and sources of heat.
3. Lift the main housing and be sure that the filter frame is placed upright in the slots in the
base. Replace the main housing. (See Figure 1)
4. Remove the water tank and take it to the sink or tub to fill.
5. Turn the tank upside down and unscrew the tank cap by turning it counter-clockwise.
Fill the water tank with cool water and replace the cap (never use hot water). Be sure not
to overfill the tank as water damage may occur to furniture or flooring due to spillage.
HUNTER WILL NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY
CAUSED BY WATER SPILLAGE.
6. Carry the tank back to the humidifier. Turn the tank upright and place it on the humidi-
fier. Be sure that the tank is seated properly in the base. If the tank is properly located on
the base, you will see air bubles flowing up into the tank.
7. With the power control knob in the ‘OFF’ position, plug the humidifier into the wall.
CAUTION: Never plug in the Humidifier while your hands are wet as Electric
Shock could occur.
8. Use the power control knob to turn the humidifier ‘ON’ by selecting a ‘HI’ or ‘LO’ setting.
Only for models with an Adjustable Humidistat (32300, 32400, 34500 and 32500):
9. You can choose the desired humidity output by adjusting the Adjustable Humidistat
knob. In a very dry room, the “HI” setting should be used to quickly achieve a comfort-
able level of humidity. Once the room is comfortable, you can turn the adjustable humi-
distat down. Selection of your desired humidity level is a personal choice and you may
have to adjust the dial to find the level where you feel most comfortable. To begin with,
we suggest you try a middle location between the lowest and the maximum setting.
Then, adjust the level to suit your needs.
10. When the humidity reaches the level you have set, the “Desired Humidity” light will be
illuminated. The humidifier will not output humidity while the humidity in the room is
at the selected humidity. The “Desired Humidity” light will stay on until the humidity
changes. When the humidity in the room drops below the selected level, the humidifier
will cycle on again and the “Desired Humidity” light will go off.
Only for models with Automatic Shut-Off (32500 and 34500):
11. When the water tank is empty, the humidifier will automatically shut itself off. The red
light will be illuminated, indicating that the water tank needs to be refilled.
12. Follow REFILLING THE WATER TANK directions. Once the water tank is refilled,
the Refill Light will not be illuminated.
