1. Unplug humidifier before removing the filters.
We recommend moving the humidifier to an
area where floor coverings are not susceptible
to water damage, i.e. kitchen or bath areas.
2. Open the pivoting lid and remove water bottles
and set aside. Grasp the fan assembly front
center and rear center. Lift off and set aside on
a clean flat surface. The filter housings are
now accessible.
3. Lift filter housing out of cabinet and place
where you may work on them comfortably.
With a soft, absorbent cloth remove any
remaining water or loose mineral deposits not
trapped in the filter from the humidifier cabinet.
4. To open filter housing for easy access to filters:
a. Deflect the two spring tabs on top of filter
housing. Lift top cover off of the filter
housing and set aside.
b. Remove the two filters and dispose of
properly. Clean internal parts of humidifier
per the “Cleaning and Maintenance” section
(page 12) of your operator’s manual.
Replacement and Care of Filters
WARNING
: To reduce the risk of shock or
injury from moving parts, always unplug
humidifier before removing or replacing any
parts.
CAUTION:
To help retard bacteria growth and
keep maximum efficiency, the filter should be
replaced at least once per season, or more
often under hard water conditions. Use
MoistAIR HDC12 recommended replacement
filter.
The filters may be rinsed periodically in clear water
only. Take care not to damage paper. To replace
evaporative wicking filters in your humidifier, follow
these instructions.
c. Install new filters in the filter housing track
with the glue beads of the wicking pad to
the inside of the filter housing.
d. Return the top cover of the filter housing by
installing cover over the fixed tabs on the
rear of the lower filter housing and pivoting
the cover down over the top of the filters.
Snap the cover over the two spring tabs.
