Store the appliance in a dry place inaccessible to children (pack the ap- •
pliance).
Preparation for use/operation
Place the Oskar room humidifier on a flat surface in the desired area. Plug 1.
the mains cable (3) into a electric socket. Use the filling opening (9) to fill
the lower part (2) with water up to the maximum mark, either at a water
tap or with a watering can. When you have filled the lower part at the tap,
carefully fit the upper part (1) to the lower part (2).
Next start the appliance by pressing the on/off switch (5). The blue LED
2.
should then light up. If a red pilot lamp lights up however, this indicates
either lack of water in the appliance or failure to seat the upper part cor-
rectly on the lower part.
By pressing the speed level selector button (6) you can change the humid-
3.
ity output (a blue lamp for normal evaporation, two blue lamps for high
evaporation).
You can use the hygrostat to set the desired air humidity. To do this, press
4.
on the hygrostat button (7). You can choose between the following levels:
40% relative air humidity (1 blue lamp), 45% (2 blue lamps), 50% (3 blue
lamps), 55% (4 blue lamps), constant operation (5 blue lamps). If the lamps
are flashing, this indicates that the desired air humidity has already been
reached. The hygrostat switches on automatically once the relative air
humidity in the room sinks below the preset value. We recommend that
you set your room humidity to 45% (comfort range).
If you find the lamps too bright (in a bedroom for example), you may reduce
5.
the light intensity by pressing the night mode key (8). The night mode can
be switched off by pressing the key once again.
You can use the Oskar air humidifier to distribute fragrances in the room.
6.
Please be as economical as possible in the use of fragrances, because ex-
cessive quantities may lead to malfunctions and damage to the appliance.
To use fragrances, remove the fragrance container (10) from the filling
opening (9). Place no more than 2-3 drops of fragrance in the container
and replace it in the space provided in the filling opening. If you wish
to change the fragrance, you can wash out the fragrance container and
fleece under running water.
If you wish to top up with water during operation, you can open the filling
7.
opening (9) by pressing on it (Push to open). You can then refill the appli-
ance using a water can or water bottle without having to switch it off.
PLEASE NOTE: If you are operating the appliance with fragrances, remove
the fragrance container before refilling to prevent water getting into it.
Should this nevertheless occur, it will be necessary to remove the water
container (2) and rinse it. Fragrances should not be permitted to enter the
water tank, since they might destroy the plastic.
Cleaning and cassette replacement
Prior to any maintenance work and after each use, switch off the appliance
and withdraw the mains cable from the socket. Never immerse in water (risk
of short circuit).
External surfaces should only be wiped off with a damp cloth and then •
dried well.
To clean the inside, remove the filter cassettes and descale the lower part
