End of season maintenance and storing
1.
Follow above weekly cleaning procedure at the end of the humidification season,
or when the humidifier will not be used for several days, being sure to dry all
parts. Allow the water tank to thoroughly air dry before storage. DO NOT store
with water inside any part of the humidifier.

Leave tank cap partially loosened during storage to prevent tank cap and gasket
from sticking together. This will prolong the life of the gasket.

Save original box for easy storage. Store humidifier in a cool, dry location. Do not
place any heavy items on top of humidifier during storage as this may result in
possible damage of humidifier.
