 use this product outdoors or exposed to weather or 

the elements.

-  

Do Not

 immerse this product in water.

-  

Do Not

 pour water through the top Outlet Air Grill on the 

power head.

-  

Do Not

 attempt to disassemble the power head. Doing so will 

void your warranty and could cause damage and/or personal 
injury. The power head contains no user-serviceable parts. 
If you experience a problem, please see the warranty for 
manufacturer information.

-  

Do Not

 operate the humidifier with a damaged cord or plug.  

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the 
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in 
order to avoid a hazard. 

-  To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this 

product with a digital timer, blender or solid-state control 
device, such as a blender or variable-speed fan. 

-  This appliance has a polarized plug. (One blade is wider than 

the other.) To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is 
intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug 
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not 
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this 
safety feature. 

DANGER

Risk From Electrical Connections. Please pay attention 
to any instructions given to avoid personal injury or 
property damage.

-  A loose fit between wall outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause 

overheating and distortion of the plug. Discontinue use of the 
product in outlet. Contact qualified electrician to replace loose 
or worn outlet. 

-  Turn the humidifier off if the relative humidity exceeds 60%.  

Humidity levels above 60% may allow moisture to build up 
indoors and condense on surfaces, where microorganisms can 
settle and grow. For accurate readings, use a hygrometer, which 
is available at most hardware stores and home centers. 

-  Unplug humidifier prior to moving, cleaning or refilling.
-  Unplug and empty humidifier when not in operation.
-  Remove the water tank before moving the humidifier to a 

new location.

-  Empty water from the unit if the humidifier is to be turned 

off and left for more than 8 hours, as leaving the water will 
encourage the growth of microorganisms. If this happens, 
thoroughly clean and disinfect the unit. (Refer to CLEANING.)

-

 use undiluted bleach or ammonia, strong detergents, 

abrasive cleansers, gasoline, paint thinner or other solvents to 
clean this humidifier. Use only water and mild detergents to 
perform daily maintenance on your humidifier.

 clean this humidifier in any manner other than what is 

instructed in this manual.
