Vicks
®
Warm Mist Humidifier (Model VWM845)
How it Works:
The Vicks Warm Mist Humidifier is designed to quietly provide visible warm moisture. The tank
feeds water into the boiling chamber where it is heated to a steam vapor. The steam vapor mixes
with dry air in the mist chimney and warm moist air is released into the room.
1.
The humidifier should
ALWAYS
be placed
on a firm, flat, waterproof surface at least
four feet (1.2m) away from bedside, 12
inches (30cm) from the wall and out of
reach of children and pets. Be sure the
humidifier is in a stable position and the
power cord is away from heated surfaces
and out of the way to prevent the humidifier
from being overturned.
2.
The humidifier should not be left
unattended, especially in a closed room
since air could become saturated and
leave condensation on walls and furniture.
If room becomes saturated, open the door
and turn the humidifier off or down.
3.
Before using the humidifier, extend the
cord and inspect for any signs of damage.
DO NOT
use the unit if the cord has been
damaged.
DO NOT
operate with power
cord coiled or with twist tie in place.
4.
The humidifier has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other) as a safety
feature. This plug will fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician.
DO NOT
attempt to defeat
this safety feature.
5.
CAUTION:
To avoid fire or electric
shock hazard, plug the humidifier directly
into a 120V AC electrical outlet. To avoid
risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury,
DO NOT
use an extension cord
or power strip.
6.
The humidifier should
ALWAYS
be
unplugged and emptied when not in
operation or while being cleaned. Shut
off and unplug humidifier before moving.
DO NOT
move or tilt humidifier while it
is in operation. Plug and unplug unit with
dry hands.
NEVER
pull by cord.
7.
DO NOT
operate the humidifier without
water. Turn off and unplug unit when
tank is empty and the reset light is on.
8.
Humidifier requires regular cleaning. Refer
to and follow cleaning instructions.
9.
DO NOT
operate outdoors; this humidifier
is intended for indoor residential use only.
10.
DO NOT
cover or insert objects into any
openings on the unit.
DO NOT
block intake
or output vents.
11.
DO NOT
attempt to repair or adjust any
electrical or mechanical functions on this
humidifier. Doing so will void your warranty.
12.
DO NOT
add any essential oils or
medications (e.g. Kaz Inhalant or Vicks
VapoSteam
®
) into Chimney, Reservoir,
or Water Tank.
13.
DO NOT
touch the steam vapor. Steam
can cause burns.
DO NOT
operate without
the Medicine Cup in place on top of the
Mist Chimney.
14.
DO NOT
touch skin with exposed
VapoPad
®
or place VapoPad
®
on
furniture, fabric, bedding, or plastic.
