READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS HUMIDIFIER AND SAVE THESE IMPOR-
TANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR EASY REFERENCE.

WHEN USING ANY ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE
FOLLOWED, INCLUDING:

1. Always place this humidifier on a firm, flat and level surface. This humidifier may not
work properly on an uneven surface.

2. 

CAUTION:

To reduce the risk of burns, place this humidifier in an area where it is not

accessible to children.

3. Do not place the humidifier near any heat sources such as stoves, radiators and
heaters.

4. Before using the humidifier, check the power cord for any signs of damage. If the cord
is found to be damaged, 

DO NOT USE

and return the humidifier to Honeywell under the

warranty agreement for repair.

5. This product is equipped with a polarized AC-line plug (a plug having one blade wider
than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. 

This is a safety fea-

ture. NEVER

connect the humidifier to any power source other than a 120V AC polarized

outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If
the plug should still fail to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. 

DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

6. A loose fit between the AC outlet and plug may cause overheating of the plug. Have a
qualified electrician replace the outlet.

7. The humidifier should always be unplugged and emptied when not in operation or
while being serviced or cleaned.

8. Never tilt or attempt to move the humidifier while it is operating or filled with water.

UNPLUG

the humidifier before moving.

9. This humidifier requires regular cleaning. Refer to the CLEANING instructions provided.
Never clean the humidifier in any manner other than as instructed in this manual.

10. Turn the humidifier OFF if the relative humidity exceeds 60%, or if you notice moisture
on the inside of your windows. For proper humidity readings use a hygrometer, which is

available in many hardware and department stores, or by ordering one from
Honeywell (see Replacement Parts and Care Products-Digital Humidity Temperature
Indicator).
