Dear Parents
Congratulations on deciding to purchase our
NUK Humidifier – a decision in favour of quality
and safety.
This humidifier helps improve the air in a child’s
room by ensuring that it is at a pleasant
humidity. This prevents excessively dry air
leading to your baby suffering from irritated
mucous membranes, dry, cracked skin, a dry,
sore throat and cracked lips. At the same time,
it also reduces the risk of flu, colds and some
fungal and bacterial infections, as humidification
stops your baby’s resistance being weakened by
excessively dry air.
We wish your baby a healthy development.

3. Description of Appliance
3.1 Intended Purpose
This NUK Humidifier increases humidity indoors
and thus prevents the air becoming too dry.
This appliance may only be used in dry indoor
areas. Use outdoors or in damp areas is
prohibited. This appliance is intended for use in
private households and is not suitable for
commercial use.
Humidity is a measure of how much water
vapour there is in the air.
The quantity of water vapour the air can absorb
is highly dependent on temperature. The higher
the air temperature, the more water vapour
can be absorbed.
When the air is fully saturated (e.g. when it is
foggy or raining), in other words when it cannot
absorb any more water, we talk about a relative
humidity of 100%.
We feel best at a relative humidity of 40-55%.
A relative humidity of less than 30% is perceived as
too dry. The hygro-thermometer (moisture and
temperature measuring instrument) supplied enab-
les you to measure relative humidity at any time.
