CLEANING YOUR HUMIDIFIER (continued)
Disinfecting
Before starting the disinfecting process, follow Steps 1-3 in the
Before Cleaning
section.
NOTE: Bleach may stain clothes. It is recommended to wear rubber gloves during this
process to protect your hands.
1.
Add 1 teaspoon of bleach to 1 gallon (3.8L) of water and add to Water Tank.
2.
Replace Tank Cap and swish bleach solution in Tank to coat the inside of the Water Tank.
3.
Place Tank on Base, allowing solution to drain into the Water Reservoir. Soak for 20 minutes.
4.
Remove Water Tank and empty solution into sink.
5.
Ensure Chimney is removed, then pour solution from
the Base into the sink. Be sure to pour out of the side of
the Base, as indicated by an arrow, to avoid leaking into
the Control Panel.
6.
Rinse Tank and Reservoir area with clean water until
the smell of bleach is gone.
CAUTION: DO NOT SUBMERGE BASE IN WATER. DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE
HUMIDIFIER AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
Reassemble Mist Chimney, Mist Chimney Cover, and Mist Outlet (see
Reassembly
instructions).
