Using The Demineralization Cartridge:
This humidifier has been designed to be used with the Protec PDC51V2
or PDC51CV2 Demineralization Cartridge (not included). In hard water
areas, use of distilled water or a demineralization cartridge with tap water
will help minimize the production of white dust. Cartridges can be ordered
through Consumer Relations; see back of this manual.
Daily Maintenance
For best results, use fresh clean water every day.

Weekly Cleaning

To properly clean your humidifier we recommend the separate processes of Scale Removal and
Disinfecting shown below. These two processes must be performed separately.
All maintenance should be done in the kitchen or bathroom on a water resistant surface near
a faucet. DO NOT wash any components of this humidifier in the dishwasher.
Instructions for Scale Removal
Step 1
Step 2
1.
Turn off and unplug the humidifier.
2.
Remove Water Tank from Base. Remove Tank Cap, taking care that the rubber Cap Gasket
does not come off. Empty water from Water Tank and Base.
3.
If Antimicrobial Cleaning Product is installed, remove Antimicrobial Cleaning Product and set aside.
DO NOT clean Antimicrobial Cleaning Product. This will damage the Antimicrobial Cleaning Product.
4.
Add 2 cups of undiluted distilled white vinegar to Water Tank. Replace Tank Cap and swish
vinegar solution around in Tank. Place Tank on Base. Vinegar solution will drain into Water
Reservoir and loosen mineral buildup (scale) on Nebulizer and Float as they soak in the
solution. It will also loosen scale on bottom of Water Tank.
Step 5 Step 6
MINUTES
5.
Soak for 15-20 minutes.
6.
After soaking, unlock Tank Cap and pour solution out in sink. Pour solution from
Water Reservoir out in sink. Wipe Nebulizer and Float with soft cloth to remove loosened
mineral deposits.
7.
Rinse Water Reservoir and Water Tank until smell of vinegar (for Scale Removal process)
or bleach solution (for Disinfecting process) is gone. Make sure water does not enter the
fan opening (vented opening on right side of Reservoir) or Power Knob.
CAUTION: DO NOT SUBMERGE BASE IN WATER. DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE
HUMIDIFIER AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
