Little humidification
power.
No humidification
power.
An independent
humidity switch
measures a differ-
ent humidity value
from the display on
the appliance.
The escaping air
smells unpleasantly.
Possible cause
• The function "LOW" was selected,
using the "speed" button.
• The water in the water basin is
very cold.
• The power plug is not connected
to the power outlet or the con-
nection adapter is not correctly
plugged into the appliance jack.
• The warning light "WATER SHORT-
AGE" has illuminated, then the
appliance and all displays have
turned off.
• Dirt has collected in the air outlet
or inlet opening.
• The appliance is placed near a
window or an open door.
• There is old water in the water
basin.
• Old water was left over in the
water basin and merely mixed with
new water.

Solution
• Select a higher humidifica-
tion power, f.e. "MID" or
"HIGH".
• Select the humidification
power "HIGH" with the
"speed" button. After 10
minutes, humidification
power will have increased.
• Firmly connect the power
plug to the socket and the
connection adapter to the
appliance jack.
• Fill the water basin up to
the MAX marking with fresh
tap water, then reinstall the
appliance top.
• Clean the air inlet and
outlet openings. NOTE: Even
within one room, different
values for humidity can be
measured. The "CURRENT
HUMIDITY" value only refers
to the humidity directly by
the appliance.
• Place the appliance in a spot
free of draft.
• Drain the water and clean
the appliance as described in
"Cleaning and mainte-
nance". Fill the water basin
with fresh tap water.
