WHAT IS A HUMIDIFIER?
Your Breville humidifier will assist in keeping
a comfortable and healthy environment at home
by artificially adding water vapour (moisture) to
the surrounding atmosphere. It may assist with
common winter symptoms such as dry skin,
dry throat, cracked or dry lips, dry nasal cavity,
and itchy eyes, as well as some sinus and
respiratory issues.
HOW DOES A HUMIDIFIER WORK?
Your Breville humidifier uses a high-frequency
oscillator to break water into tiny water particles.
The ventilation system then blows these water
particles into the dry air in the form of a mist
where it evaporates to increase the relative
humidity.
WHAT IS RELATIVE HUMIDITY?
Relative humidity (RH) is the amount of water
vapour in the air and it is commonly expressed
as a percentage of the maximum amount of
water vapour that the air can hold at a given
temperature. Every environment has a different
humidity level. A standard comfortable level is
considered to be between 40-60%RH.
Assembly
BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Before using your humidifier for the first
time, remove all packaging material and
promotional labels.
2. Check for any missing or damaged parts
as per the components list.
3. Clean all parts according to the Care, Cleaning
& Storage section.
4. Place the humidifier on a flat surface that
will not be damaged by exposure to water
or moisture.
IMPORTANT
It is recommended that a waterproof mat or pad
is placed under the humidifier when in use.
5. Remove the cover from the top of the
humidifier and set aside.
6. Using the handle, lift and remove the water
tank from the humidifier.
7. Turn the water tank gently upside-down,
unscrew the water tank cap and fill the tank
with clean water.
IMPORTANT
Only fill the water tank with cold tap or distilled
water. Do not use ground water or hot water.
8. Replace the water tank cap securely back
onto the water tank and place the tank onto
the humidifier base.
NOTE
The water purification filter is attached to the
water tank cap. Ensure both are properly fitted
before using the humidifier.
IMPORTANT
Ensure the water tank cap is properly and tightly
screwed back onto the water tank as leakage may
occur if loose or incorrectly fitted.
