A NOTE ABOUT HUMIDITY
It is best to keep the humidity level at about 30-50 percent of relative humidity.
The comfort level of humidity will vary from room to room and with changing room conditions.
In cold weather, windows and even some walls may fog or develop frost from excessive indoor
humidity. If this occurs, reduce the mist intensity setting to avoid damage from condensed water
dripping on windowsills.
Too much humidity in the room may allow moisture to accumulate on surfaces where bacteria
and fungi can grow. Moisture that gathers may also damage furniture and walls, especially
wallpaper.
To eliminate excessive humidity, especially in small rooms, leave the room door open and adjust
the mist intensity control setting.
CARE AND CLEANING
Portable humidifiers require regular cleaning in order to reduce the risk of bacterial growth and
also to remove any scale residue to maintain good operational performance. Follow the
procedures below for healthy maintenance of your Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifier
.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the humidifier is unplugged and switched OFF before cleaning or
attempting to store the item.
DO NOT leave water in water tank or water basin when unit is not in use as it may result in the
buildup of mineral deposits and bacteria that can inhibit the output efficiency of the humidifier.
PLEASE NOTE that if water remains in the water tank for more than a day or two, bacterial growth
is possible. ALWAYS use fresh cool water when using unit.
NOTE: When removing water tank, water may accumulate under vapor lid and on the bottom
of the water tank. It is recommended to have a dry cloth ready to dry wet surfaces.
DISINFECTING THE WATER TANK AND WATER BASIN
1.
Fill water tank with 1 teaspoon of household bleach in 1 gallon of water. Let stand twenty
minutes, shaking vigorously with two hands every few minutes, drain and rinse with clean
water until the bleach smell is gone. Dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
2.
Wipe the water basin with a soft cloth dampened in the bleach and water solution. Rinse the
water basin with cool water to remove any bleach smell. DO NOT IMMERSE WATER BASIN IN
WATER.
3.
Wipe all exterior surfaces of the base with a soft, dry cloth. Do not immerse the base in water
or use water to clean the base. An electric shock may result or the humidifier may be
damaged.
NOTE: It is recommended to clean humidifier with water and bleach solution as stated above
after using the humidifier every fourth time or if cleaning seems necessary.
