• Only use the brush to clean the membrane.
This should be done once a week.
• Change the water in the tank at least once a
week.

Operating
On-Off
Press button ( 1 ) to turn the air humidifier on
and off.
Operating with preheating
Button ( 2 ) is used to turn the pre-heating on
(symbol A apperars on the display) to off. When it
is on, the water is pre-heated to 80°C before it
enters the fogging chamber. The fog is now at a
confortable 40°C when it is emitted from the
appliance. This is advantageous as it does not
cause the room temperature to fall, in addition
there is substantial improvement in maintaining
the purity of the water (bacteria are killed).
Timer
You can use button ( 3 ) to determine the
operating time. It can be regulated between 1 and
9 hours or for continuous operation. If the timer
has been activated, the symbol ( E ) appears on
the display.
Auto
Pressing button ( 4 ) activates the automatic
mode. If the automatic function has been added
symbol ( D ) with “Auto” appears on the display.
The ideal humidity in relation to temperature and
evaporation rate is maintained.
Hygrostat/Set humidity
Set the desired humidity in % by pressing button
( 5 ). We recommend a relative humidity between
40% and 60%. The appliance can be regulated
from 40% to 75%. If the humidity exceeds the
desired setting, the appliance turns itself off. The
appliance does not turn itself off, if it has been set
for continuous operation. The desired value is
shown while you are making the selection. After a
few seconds, the display automatically switches
to the current value.
Symbol B
on the display indicates that the set
humidity has not been reached yet.
Symbol C
on the display indicates that the
desired humidity has been reached.
Regulating evaporation rate
You can regulate the evaporation rate by pressing
button ( 6 ) several times. If the arrow ( F ) is fully
displayed, you have selected the highest
evaporation rate.
Water level display
The transparent water tank makes it easy to see
how much water is in the appliance. In addition
the symbol ( G ) is displayed when water must be
refilled.
Cleaning/Maintenance
• Switch of the appliance and unplug it from the
socket before cleaning it.
• Clean the water tank and the reservoir regularly
once a week (Use water only, no detergents).
When operating with pre-heating every two
weeks.
• Use decalcification agents found in stores
everywhere to remove deposits from
the membrane regularly. Rinse out the
decalcification agent thoroughly with plenty
of water.
