• This is normal.
• Air is entering water bottle.
• Dirty filters.
• Bottle cap plunger missing post
in bottom of cabinet.
• Unit is not set up on a level sur-
face. (Float will not sense water
at the rear of the cabinet.)
• Poor water conditions.
• This is an evaporative
humidifier.

and Fill Light is not
on.
Unit will not shut
off.

desired.
• Check 120 volt source for power.
• Free float from obstruction.
• A small amount of water remains
in the cabinet after fill light comes
on.
• Check “E-Z-Fill Side-Cap” and
valve assembly cap to ensure
tightness.
• Check for leak in water bottle.
• Ensure gaskets for “E-Z-Fill Side
Cap” are in place (see repair
parts list).
• Change to fresh new filters.
• Check orientation of bottle.
Reposition so that bottle cap
plunger is depressed by post in
bottom of cabinet.
• Position unit level. (Some carpet
padding may allow unit to set
lower on the left side than the
right side due to the weight of the
water bottle on the left side. Install
coasters under left casters to
level.

your Owner’s Manual
