CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Humidifiers provide comfort by adding moisture to
dry, heated indoor air. To get the most benefit from
the humidifier and to avoid product misuse, follow all
instructions carefully, specifically the operation, care
and maintenance guidelines. Please note this is an
electrical appliance and requires attention when in
use.
Cleaning your humidifier every one or two weeks,
depending on the water conditions is important
in order to maintain efficient, healthy, odour-free
operation. Water quality varies widely and, combined
with build-up of mineral scale in your humidifier, may
under certain conditions promote the growth of micro-
organisms in the water tank.
Before cleaning, please note the following:
•
Never immerse any part of the appliance or power
cord and plug in water or any other liquid.
•
DO NOT use soap, detergents, abrasives, gasoline,
glass or furniture polish, or boiling water to clean
any part of your humidifier. These will interfere with
the proper operation of your unit and may affect its
appearance.
•
DO NOT use sharp or metal objects to clean
mineral deposits in the reservoir. Contact with sharp
objects can result in damage to the plastic.
•
Mineral deposits should be soaked for up to 20
minutes in plain vinegar and water to help with their
removal.
•
DO NOT clean any part of your humidifier in the
dishwasher.

Filling the Water Tank

WATER FILTER MAINTENANCE
The water filter is used to remove any minerals from
the mist. The filter life is determined by the average
daily use of your humidifier and the water hardness
in your area. The harder the water, the greater the
amount of minerals in the water and the more often
you will need to replace the filter. It is strongly recom
-
mended that the filter is replaced every 2 months,
(depending on use), or when white dust is emitted
from your humidifier.
1. Switch off your humidifier and disconnect it from
the mains supply socket. Remove the lid (B) and
lift out the water tank (C).
2. Turn the water tank upside down and unscrew
the filter/tank cap (Fig. 2). Unscrew the filter (E,
Fig. 3) from the tank cap (F, Fig. 3) and dispose
of the old filter in accordance with your local
regulations.
