MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and disinfecting on a regular basis is important for maintaining
the performance of your humidifier.
IMPORTANT: Water left in the tank or base when not in use may result in buildup of
mineral deposits and bacteria which may inhibit the output efficiency as well as void the
warranty. If water remains in the Water Tank for more than a day or two, bacterial growth
is possible.

Always turn off and unplug from outlet before cleaning.
2.
Empty water from the water tank and humidifier base daily. Leave the water
tank cap off to allow air to circulate when not in use.
