13. In a few moments, the mist will start coming through the mist channel (p. 4, fig.
B
11
) . Use the control knob (p. 3, fig. A
6
) to adjust the intensity of the mist
output. Turning the knob clockwise will increase the moisture output, turning the
knob counterclockwise will reduce the moisture output.
14.
Note: When at maximum level, it is normal to hear a faint dripping sound.
15. When the humidifier runs out of water, the indicator light (p. 3, fig. A
7
) will turn
red, and the mist output will stop. This is a safety feature to prevent the humidifier
from possibly overheating and damaging the mist chamber (p. 4, fig. D
1
).
16. Turn the control knob to reset and refill the water tank. In a few moments, the
green indicator light will turn on. Turn the control knob to “0” position for 2
minutes and then turn power on by turning the control knob clockwise (to the
right).
Setting the correct humidity output
Adjust the mist control so that the mist rises up and gets absorbed by the room
air. Do not turn on too high an output as the mist cannot be absorbed by the air
and accumulates on the surface around the humidifier. If the humidifier is placed
near a fan or air conditioning outlet, the mist may be forced down by the foreign
air stream. Change the location of the humidifier or reduce the output of the other
room conditioning appliances.
Using essential oils
Essential oils can be used on the aroma pad located in the aroma tray on the top of
the mist channel (p. 4, fig. B
11
). You can mix and match any oil scents you would
like.
1. Place about 3 drops of desired scent on the aroma pad located in the aroma tray
(p. 4, fig. C
12
).
2. Push the aroma pad into the medicine cup, (p. 4, fig. B
8
) .
3. Each pad should only be used per desired scent.
4. Before attempting to reuse aroma pad with a different scent, clean the aroma
pad by lightly hand washing it in warm water and letting it thoroughly air dry.
Helpful hints
1. It is best to keep the humidity level at about 30-50 percent of relative humidity.
2. The comfort level of humidity will vary from room to room and with changing
room conditions.
3. In cold weather, windows and even some walls may fog or develop frost from
excessive indoor humidity. If this occurs, reduce the mist intensity setting to avoid
damage from condensed water dripping on windowsills.
4. Too much humidity in the room may allow moisture to accumulate on surfaces
where bacteria and fungi can grow. Moisture that gathers may also damage
furniture and walls, especially wallpaper.
5. To eliminate excessive humidity, especially in small rooms, leave the room door
open and adjust the mist intensity control setting.
6. Note: To avoid possible white dust due to hard water, it is recommended to use
filtered or distilled water.
7. DO NOT use hot water. Use cool tap water.
8. DO NOT add any medication or other additives to the water.
9. DO NOT pour water into Vapor Outlet Channel (p. 4, fig. B
11
).
10. Note: Do not attempt to move humidifier while water tank is placed on the water
basin. Doing so may cause leakage of water. Also, do not place humidifier on the
floor. Place humidifier on an elevated surface.
