2. Operating the appliance
Operation
Setting up
– The mist outlet is packed with the user manual and must be fitted to the
cover before use. It can be swivelled.
– Place on a flat, stable and waterproof surface.
– Never place directly under the power socket.
– Make sure the machine stands safely and the airflow is not blocked by
e.g. furniture or curtains. Never place near curtains, furniture
or walls (risk of damage by moisture).
– Never place near radiators or other heat sources. Make sure that nobody
can trip over the power cable and that the machine is out of reach of chil-
dren. Never let children play with the appliance.
Important:
– Only use the humidifier in dry rooms up to 50 m² / 125 m³ in size and
without extension cable.
– To prevent vapour sinking to the floor, install the humidifier at a height of
at least 50 cm.
Filling/refilling the water tank
– Turn off the power switch (14.).
– Pull out the power plug.
– Take off the cover (3.) and remove the water tank (4.).
– Turn the water tank upside down and unscrew the lid.
– Empty out residual water and rinse the tank well.
– Fill with water and close the lid tightly.
Never add anything to the water (e.g. aroma essence)!
Tip:
– For very hard water we recommend using the filter cartridge (8.) to
prevent white scaling. Lime filter cartridge art. A53454.
– Cartridge filler life 1-2 months depending on water hardness.
–
Refill granulate
(3 bags): art. A53455.
How to use:
– First screw the cartridge (8.) on to the lid (5.).
– Then screw the lid with cartridge on to the water tank.
Caution!
– Use tapwater only. Never use mineral water or softened water! Never add
salt or anythng else to the water!
–
Never add water through the mist outlet!
Water level indicator lamp
– Blue = full. Red = empty. When the tank is empty the ultrasonic mem-
brane switches off automatically. The ultrasonic membrane switches on
again as soon as the tank is full and after switching on.
Note:
– When starting up or after a long period of disuse, wait 30 seconds for the
water circuit to fill. The lamp goes blue when the tank is full. (Shortly acti-
vate the power switch (14.) for switching on the humidifier.)
Information on ultrasonic air humidifiers:
– In this type of humidifier an ultrasonic membrane (9.) vibrates the water
so that ultrafine droplets are emitted from the surface. These droplets are
mixed with air in the circular nebulizing chamber and blown into the room
as a visible mist.
– Air humidity is monitored by the integrated hygrostat.
– For very hard water (indicated by white scaling) we recommend using a
lime filter cartridge (see page 21).
– Air circulation strongly interferes with humidification (e.g. due to open
or loose windows in high rooms).
– Please note that moisture rises with warm air and may cause
undesirable condensation.
– Recommended room air humidities:
50% humidity at 18 °C room temperature
45% humidity at 20 °C room temperature
40% humidity at 22 °C room temperature
Starting up
– Insert the power plug.
– Turn on the power switch (14.). The LED goes blue.
Built-in hygrostat adjustment and display
– Adjustment in 10% stages from 20–90 % relative air humidity.
– 40–50% = recommended comfort range.
– The display flashes if the setting is lower than the existing room air
humidity.
