Weekly care of the humidifier
When the humidifier is in continuous
operation, it must be cleaned once a week.
•
Pull out main plug!
•
Fold up the lid of the filling aperture and
remove cover.
•
Pull of the pump hose from the filter
frame and lift out frame with filter
(Figure 3).
•
Pour out remaining water.
•
Clean with commercial cleaning agent
and a brush. In case of strong
calcification, please use a commercially
available lime remover or the lime
dissolver approved by Brune (article no.
9016). Then rinse all parts thoroughly
with clear water. The filter should not be
cleaned. Clean the motor element with a
moist cloth only! Reassemble in reverse
order.
Daily care of the humidifier
In addition to the weekly cleaning, it is
recommended that the remaining water be
poured out every day and the water tray
refilled with fresh cold water. At the same
time, check whether the holes in the water
distributing channel are free of dirt.
If they are not, unclog the holes with a
pointed tool.
The water level must be checked every day.
If necessary, replenish with fresh water.
Gurgling noises also indicate that the water
level is too low.
Filter exchange
When the humidifier is in continuous
operation, the filter should be replaced at
least every 10 weeks. The replacement period
depends on the water hardness and on the
amount of dirt in the intake air. Old filters can
develop an unpleasant odour. Washing out
the filters provides no improvement. Here is
how to replace the filter:
•
Pull out the main plug
•
Take off the cover. '
•
Remove the hold filter from the holder and
discard (Figure 4).
•
Insert new filter and press onto the hooks
of the frame (Figure 5).
•
Moisten new filter (see section on placing into
operation).
You can obtain replacement filters from the
specialty trade or from our customer service
department.
Annual Cleaning
Clean the humidifier thoroughly at least once a
year, preferably after the end of the heating
season (see section on
Care of the humidifier
).
In addition:
•
Pull out the motor element from its holders
after depressing the latch (Figure 6). Clean
with moist cloth only!
•
Open pump (Figure 7) and clean with moist
cloth. Observe the marking when pressing the
pump back together.
Only an expert may correct damages on the
humidifier or the feed cable.
In case of main plug damage, please contact the
specialist dealers or manufacturer.
