Drain the water, and dry thoroughly.

Use a vacuum cleaner or other method to clean off the dust on the air inlet.

When the body gets dirty, wipe it clean with a soft cloth dipped in warm water and/
or dish detergent and well wrung out. Then polish it gently with a dry cloth. (Do not
rub hard on the plastic parts. Doing so may scratch them.)
Cleaning the Water Tank (at least twice a week)
Fill up the water tank with water, close the water tank cap, thoroughly shake the
water tank, and then drain. (Repeat this two or three times.)
Be sure to always wash the water tank with water at room temperature.
*
Washing the water tank with hot water can cause it to deform. Do not wash
with cleansers or other solvents. These substances can cause the humidi
fi
er to
malfunction.
CAUTION
Do not wipe with benzene or thinner. This could result in discoloration or
•
deformation.
Before using a cloth containing chemical substances, check its safety information.
•
Otherwise, discoloration or scratches could result.
Replace the water in the water tank and water tub with new water everyday. Clean
•
regularly to ensure that the inside of the product is always clean.
Use without regular cleaning will cause buildup of dirt and grime, which will lead to
growing of mold and bacteria, resulting in unpleasant odors. In certain cases, this could
cause a reaction in people who are sensitive and harm their health. In this case, please
consult with a physician.
Use clean water only.
•
Do not use distilled water.
To inhibit the growth of bacteria, we recommend to use water which underwent a chlorine
disinfection process. Also, soft water with less minerals suits this product.
Never use juice or other drinking fluids, hot water (40°C or higher), or water mixed
•
with chemical products, fragrances (such as aroma oil), or cleanser.
This could damage the water tank and the product.

generated at all. When this happens, replace the ceramic disc (sold separately) using
the procedure below. (See the

Turn off the power, unplug the power cord, and drain the water.
