recommend to have one installed.
• Before using the humidifier, make sure that it is NOT in the "ON"

followed.
• Connect the supply cord to an electrical wall socket with ground.
Do not use a non-earthed supply like an extension cord, a light
bulb socket or others.

prior to refilling the unit.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manu-
facturer or its service agent or similar qualified person in order to
avoid a hazard.

• Remove wedge which holds circular foam holder, then remove
holder from humidifier taking hold of its axis.
• Place drum inside humidifier.
• Pull slightly outward water tank.

03. Array
For best results we recommend you to locate your unit in the middle
of premises. If room is heated by pulsed air please set unit near
source of pulsed air.
Do not place humidifier near furniture, paintings or any other object
which humidity could damage.
CONNECTING TO MAINS
• Before using the humidifier, extend the cord and inspect for any
signs of damage, inspect plug and socket. You should use earth
socket.
• Connect the unit to mains (230 Volt - 50 Hz 10 Amps). Humidifier
consumption does not exceed 0,5 Amps (110Wh).
FILLING UP HUMIDIFIER
• Make sure the humidifier is switched OFF.
• Unplug unit from mains.
• Flip open filling cover.
• Be very careful while filling up reservoir, do not spill water on unit
controls, or on inside sides of unit. STOP filling 2 cm under water
level indicated.
• Wipe dry any spilled water from control panel. Make sure unit is
quite dry before proceeding.
• Connect humidifier to mains.
HOW TO USE YOUR HUMIDIFIER
Please become familiar with the various commands of your humi-
difier:
• To turn off unit, switch it "OFF". To turn it on, switch it to the "ON"
position. There are 2 speeds (speed 1, speed 2) to choose from.
• The humidistat (% humidity) allows you to regulate the humidity
level in the premises. If your turn backward the humidistat it will
stop the unit. On the contrary if you turn it to its maximum, the unit
will run continuously.
• The reservoir float will stop the humidifier when the amount of
water is below 2 cm.
• The warning lights (WATER), (% HUMIDITY) and (ON) indicate at all
times if the unit is in good working order.
When the red warning light (WATER) is “ON”, the reservoir water
level is insufficient. See filling up procedure.
When the orange warning light is ON (% HUMIDITY), the room humi-
dity level is either the same or higher than the humidistat setting. If
a higher level of humidity is required, turn the humidistat clock wise
to the required level. The green warning light comes “ON” when the
fan is operating, this also means the water level in the reservoir is
sufficient and the humidistat setting level is higher than the room
relative humidity level (%humidity).
