Start-up of the device:
Connect the plug with the mains socket. The water tank is lit by a blue LED. The standby ope-
ration consumes 0,8 watt.
∙ Adjust the appliance with the button.
∙ With the button you regulate the vaporization intensity
∙ Minimum = 60 ml/h
∙ Maximum = 250 ml/h
∙ Choose the correct level of vaporization to avoid over humidification in the sur-
roundings of the appliance.
∙ You must not adjust the nozzle in the direction to sockets, electrical appliances,
bookshelves or other moisture-sensitive objects.
∙ The red light shines if the water tank is empty.
∙ Please remove all water out of the tank if the appliance is not used for a couple of
days to prevent the formation of mold and algea.
Cleaning
∙ The appliance must be cleaned more often the harder the water is. Too much lime
disturbs the correct working of the appliance and leads to the formation of scale.
In this case use boiled or distilled water. In any case do not use carbonated mineral
water!
∙ Unplug the appliance first.
Never immerse the appliance into water.
∙ The appliance must be unplugged and the water must be removed from the base and out
of the water tank by opening the cover at the bottom of the water tank and pour out the
water. Only close the water tank again when the appliance should be used again, else the
water tank should dry up completely.
∙ Scale remains at the base, the transductor and the water tank should be wiped away. It is
essential, that the transductor is not damaged. When there is excessive scale some scale
remover should be used or fill vinegar in the bassin. After some time, depending on deposit,
the scale dissolved. After this the base must be cleaned completely with clean water. The fil-
ter should be put into salty water (1 spoon salt per litre) for one day for recovery. Then rinse
the filter with clear water and shake it and then let it dry.
∙ Steba tipp: Weekly cleaning avoids white sediments. Bacteria and germs will not
have a chance! When the device is regularly used, its cleaning will be easier and
quicker.
∙ Carefully clean the ultrasonic membrane at the bottom part with a brush. Scale
reduces the atomization. Reassemble the appliance and store in a dry place up till
next usage.
