Before First Use

1

Place the unit upright on a firm, flat surface. For proper air circulation make sure
the vented sides are at least 18-20” clear of any wall. Do not block airflow inlets
and outlets. Unrestricted airflow will result in the best efficiency and performance
of your Venta-Airwasher.

2

Inspect the power cord to insure it is free of damages.

3

Make sure the upper housing is removed from the lower housing.

4

Place disk stack(s) into lower housing.

5

Add fresh tap water. Fill water to the fill
line located approximately one (1) inch
below the top on the inside of the lower
housing. You can transport the lower
housing to your sink or tub – or you may
fill the lower housing by carrying the
water in a pitcher or watering can to the
lower housing. Be careful when filling,
cleaning, or moving the Venta-Airwasher
to avoid water spills. 

Do not fill your

Venta through the air intake holes 
on top of the upper housing.

6

Add 3.5 fl.oz. of Venta WTA, the
contents of one sample bottle. 
For your convenience two (2) starter
bottles of Venta WTA are enclosed.

7

Place upper housing properly on top of lower housing.

8

Plug power cord into standard 110-120 V AC outlet.
