IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS
HUMIDIFIER
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, and injury to persons, including the
following:
1.
Always place this humidifier on a firm, flat and level
surface. This humidifier may not work properly on an
uneven surface.
2.
Place this humidifier in an area where it is not accessible
to children.
3.
Do not place the humidifier near any heat sources such as
stoves, radiators, and heaters.
4.
Do not use the humidifier outdoors.
5.
Before using the humidifier, check the power cord for any
signs of damage. If the cord is found to be damaged, DO
NOT USE and return the humidifier to the manufacturer
under the warranty agreement for repair.
6.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of shock, this plug is
intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the
plug does not fit securely in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT
attempt to defeat this safety feature.
7.
To disconnect the humidifier, first turn controls to the
OFF position, then grip the plug and pull it from the wall
outlet. Never pull by the cord.
8.
A loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug
may cause overheating and a distortion of the plug.
Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn
outlet.
9.
The humidifier should always be unplugged and emptied
when not in operation or while being serviced or cleaned.
10.
Never tilt or attempt to move the humidifier while it is
operating or filled with water. UNPLUG the humidifier
before moving.
11.
This humidifier requires regular cleaning. Refer to
the CLEANING instructions provided. Never clean the
humidifier in any manner other than as instructed in this
manual.
12.
Do not direct moisture flow directly at individuals, walls
or furniture.
13.
When a humidifier is used in a closed room or small
rooms, check periodically for proper ventilation, as
excessive humidity can cause condensation stains on
walls.
14.
Turn the humidifier OFF if you notice moisture on the
inside of your windows. For proper humidity reading
use a hygrometer, which is available in many hardware
and department stores, or by ordering one from the
manufacturer.
