CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
ATTENTION! Always switch off and unplug the unit before cleaning.
You can ensure many years of trouble free operation of your humidifier by following a few simple maintenance procedures. If your water is hard, containing high concentrations of calcium and other minerals,
then over a period of time white dust will start to deposit on the various surfaces in the room. A white, film-like substance will also start to develop in the water basin, on the transducer and on the inner surface
of the water tank. This white film will impede the proper function of the transducer and the operation of the machine.
Use cold boiled water or distilled water.
Clean the transducer, water tank and basin unit every week.
Change the water in water tank more often to keep it fresh.
Make sure to pull out the water from the water tank and dry the water basin before you store the unit unused for a long perio d of time.
Clean the whole unit and make sure that all parts of the unit are dried completely before unused for longer period of time.
How to clean the transducer:
Put 5-10 drops of cleaning abluent on the surface of the transducer; wait for 2-5 minutes.
Brush off the scale from the surface.
Rinse the transducer with clean water.
Never use sharp or solid objects for cleaning the transducer
How to clean the basin unit:
Clean the water basin with soft cloth. If there is excess film on the surfaces, then soak the cloth with vinegar and repeat the process.
If there is a film in any of the depressions along the basin, drop a bit of vinegar into depression and clean it out with a brush.
Rinse the water basin with clean water.
STORAGE
If you are not going to use the humidifier for a long time, make sure that all its parts are dry, including the operating chamber of the sprayer.
Do not store the unit with water in the water tank and in the operating chamber of the sprayer.
Clean and dry the filter-cartridge before taking it away for storage. Keep the filter-cartridge in a cool darkened place.
Keep the humidifier away from children in a dry cool place.
The following is not considered faulty operation:
if your water is very hard( containing abnormally high levels of minerals) the humidifier may produce white dust. This is not a malfunction. The solution would be to clean the filter more often or use softer water.
If you stand very close to the humidifier, you will hear the gurgling sound of water. This is normal.
The machine operates very quietly but it is not completely silent. Noise levels less than 35DB is considered normal.
