We recommend cleaning the humidifier once a week, more often if you have hard water,
notice a build up of impurities or detect unpleasant odors.
Cleaning involves two steps SCALE REMOVAL and DISINFECTING. Be sure to perform these in
the proper order to avoid harmful chemical interactions.
• First, turn off and unplug the humidifier.
• Remove the Water Tank.
• Remove the Filter from the Base.
• Empty any water from the Base.
Failure to remove filter during cleaning will destroy the filter.
STEP ONE:
SCALE REMOVAL
REMOVABLE TRAY
1. Fill the Removable Tray with:
• 1 cup (8 ozs.) of undiluted white vinegar
2. Let solution stand for 20 minutes.
3. With the vinegar in the Removable Tray,
clean all interior surfaces with a soft cloth or
brush to help remove scale.
4. Rinse thoroughly with water to remove
scale and cleaning solution.
NOTE: THE USE OF OTHER WATER TREATMENT PRODUCTS AND CHEMICALS MAY CAUSE
DETERIORATION OF THE FILTER OR DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER, THEREBY HINDERING THE
HUMIDIFIER'S EFFECTIVENESS.
NOTE: REMOVE FILTER BEFORE CLEANING.
