WEEKLY CARE AND CLEANING

OPERATING

USING LIQUID INHALANT

 Step 1

 Step 2

 Step 3

1. Power: 

With the power knob in the OFF position ( ), plug the filled humidifier into a polarized

120V outlet. 

Do not force the polarized plug into the outlet

; It will only fit one way. To avoid 

electric shock 

do not 

plug in humidifier with wet hands.

2. Output: 

Turn Power Knob to high (

) or low ( ) to select desired humidity level. The green

light around the Power Knob will illuminate and after 1-2 minutes your humidifier will produce a 

visible steam. 

3. Humidity Level: 

A comfortable humidity level is between 40-60%.

To monitor your humidity level it is recommended you use a hygrometer such as the Vicks V70 

or V70-CAN model or the Honeywell H10C model. If condensation appears on walls or windows 

the humidity level is too high. If this occurs, open a door and turn humidifier off or down.

4.

CAUTION

Do not

 remove the Cooling Chamber, Removable Tray, Water Tank or

Medicine Cup when humidifier is in use, or for at least 20-30 min after unit has been turned off 

and unplugged. 

 CAUTION:

 Before moving humidifier, turn humidifier off, unplug and wait 20-30 min.  

Do not 

operate your humidifier without the Water Tank in place or if the unit is empty.

 Do not 

operate your humidifier without the Cooling Chamber, Removable Tray, or Medicine Cup properly 

assembled.

 Step 4

Liquid Inhalants such as Vicks VapoSteam

®

 or Kaz Inhalant can be used in the medicine cup to 

provide soothing menthol vapors to help provide comfort.. 

ONLY USE LIQUIDS THAT ARE RECOMMENDED FOR THIS TYPE OF HUMIDIFIER.
1.

Add 1 TB (tablespoon) inhalant to the Medicine Cup.

2. NOTE:

 Some residue from inhalant may be left in Medicine Cup after use. With the humidifier

turned off, unplugged and cooled for at least 20-30 min, gently wipe residue from Medicine Cup.

3. Do not 

add liquid inhalants or any additives other than those recommended by the manufacturer

and 

do not

 add liquid inhalants or any additives directly to the water. Doing so can have adverse 

effects on the humidifier.
