Cleaning and maintenance
Warning: Scalding hazard.
Do not attempt to remove the humidifier from the mounting bracket during operation, or
the humidifier’s water tank when full of water. The heating element could be hot when
tank is removed. Failure to comply could result in severe scalding or death.
To clean TrueSTEAM:
1. Press the EMPTY button. Wait for the CLEAN TANK light to be on solid (not blinking).

Drain Operation
• Auto flushing is configurable to 10, 20 or 30 hours of operational time (heating element
active).
• During auto flushing, cold water will enter the tank to lower water temperature below 140°F
(60°C) before draining.
• During manual flush (performed by pressing the EMPTY button) initial water temperature
may be above 140°F (60°C). Ensure drain outlet is not exposed and use caution when
pressing the EMPTY button, and do NOT attempt to remove the tank with water in it.
• Manual flush takes approximately 15 minutes to empty the tank completely.
CAUTION
Hot water temperature above 140°F (60°C) can cause burns from scalding.
