Adjusting the Humidity
Your Guardian Humidification System has been pre-set at 47% relative humidity and operates on a
range (hysteresis) of approximately 2%. The system, therefore, will operate between 46% and 48%,
as set. As the controller system is fully automatic, the only controller feature you need to be familiar
with is the set point adjustment.
PLEASE NOTE: Your humidifier system
cannot
remove excess moisture without special options. If you
choose to make an increase, limit the change to no more than 2% in a 10-day period to prevent
overshoot.
The digital display will indicate the actual humidity level inside of your cabinet. To view and/or adjust
the set point, read this manual completely before proceeding then simply follow these steps:
1.
Tap the Menu
key to index to the RH SET option.
2.
To adjust humidity upward, tap the Raise key
until desired level of humidity is reached.
3.
To adjust humidity downward, tap the Lower
key until desired level of humidity is
reached.
Maintenance of Reservoir and Wicking Filter
When the display indicates low water, it is time to fill the water reservoir. Frequency of filling will vary
depending on climatic conditions and cabinet size.
As the reservoir and wicking filter(s) are constantly exposed to moisture and dirt collected from the
circulating air, they must be cleaned periodically. We recommend that you clean the reservoir and filter
each time you add distilled water.
1.
Unplug the system from its power outlet before you begin cleaning the reservoir and filter.
2.
Remove the humidification system from your cabinet, being careful not to spill any water on your
cabinet. Remove the thumbscrews, lift the cover off and remove the filter.
3.
Wipe the walls of the reservoir with a damp paper towel
4.
Wicks should be changed every 90-120 days and can be ordered directly from Vigilant
’s
online

5.
Insert clean filter into the reservoir and return it to your cabinet.
6.
To fill the reservoir, add DISTILLED water only. Never overfill the reservoir. Watch the water level
carefully while filling. Slowly fill reservoir to the max fill line.
