Depending on the water treatment methods in your local area, water added from the
tap may be rich in calcium, magnesium, or other hard minerals. After using the humidifier,
some of these minerals may collect on or inside your humidifier in the form of a white,
sometimes powdery, substance. For this reason, we commend that you use distilled
water in your humidifier to limit the buildup of these hard-mineral deposits.
Located on the bottom of your humidifier is a black, sponge-like material which is the
carbon filter for the air intake. This filter may attract large quantities of dust or other
debris from the surrounding air after continued use, depending on your local
environment.
The atomizer, water tank, and water channel should be cleaned weekly.
1. Place approx. 2 tsp. of distilled white vinegar onto the surface of the atomizer and
let sit for 2-5 minutes. Increase or decrease the amount of vinegar depending on the
amount of hard-mineral deposits.
2. Gently scrub the surface of the atomizer with the included soft cleaning brush until
any mineral deposits are removed.
3. Rinse the surface of the atomizer with clean water to remove any remaining vinegar.
