• Remove the Water Tanks by grasping the handle and pulling straight up. Set aside (Fig. 2).
• Lift up on the Motor Housing to remove and set aside (Fig. 3). Remove the
Filter from the Base before filling the unit with water. Soak the Filter in a
sink full of cool water to help reduce mineral buildup and place back in the
humidifier while wet.
DO NOT SQUEEZE OR WRING OUT THE FILTER.
To
help extend the life of your Filter, repeat this step each time you fill your
humidifier.
• Turn the Water Tank upside down so that the Fill Cap is facing up; unscrew
the Fill Cap by turning it counter-clockwise
and set aside.
• Fill each Water Tank with COOL tap water (Fig. 4). Distilled water is not necessary
as the water is filtered by the Filter.
DO NOT USE HOT WATER.
Doing so may
damage the humidifier.
• Replace the Fill Cap by turning it clockwise
.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
Turn the Water Tank right-side up.
NOTE: When carrying the filled Water Tank please use the handle and place
your other hand under the tank for additional support. Carry only one at a time.
• Place the Motor Housing back into the Base.
• Position each Water Tank in the humidifier and push into place. Some water will
empty into the Base.
Note: The tanks do not drain simultaneously, one tank
will drain before the other.
• Once the filled tanks have been positioned, do not attempt to move the humidifier.
If it has to be moved, unplug the humidifier and remove the Water Tanks first.
