BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE
WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS
BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND INJURY
TO PERSONS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
1.
The appliance should ALWAYS be placed
on a firm, flat, waterproof surface at least
four feet (1.2 m) away from bedside, 12
inches (30 cm) from the wall and out of
reach of patients, children and pets. Be
sure the appliance 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 a tripping hazard.
2.
The appliance should not be left
unattended in a closed room. Leave room
door partly open. DO NOT aim Mist Outlet
directly at walls, furniture and bedding.
3.
Before using the appliance, 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 twist tie in place.
4.
The appliance 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.
To avoid fire or electric shock hazard,
plug the appliance 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.

Getting to Know Your Vicks VUL525/545 Series Humidifiers
How it Works
Water is released from the Water Tank into the Reservoir. A Nebulizer vibrates at ultrasonic
frequency, breaking the water into a fine mist. The mist is quietly propelled by a fan up a vertical
Mist Chamber to the Mist Outlet where the cool, visible mist enters the room. This humidifier will
shut off when the water level is low or when the Tank is removed from the Base.
