Cleaning
Your Protec ™ Cleaning Cartridge helps reduce mineral build-up in your humidifier and will help extend the
life of your filter. However, you should still continue to clean your humidifier regularly as needed.
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 and Motor Housing.
• Remove the filter from the Base.
• Empty any water from the Base.
NOTE: REMOVE FILTER AND PROTEC
Failure to remove filter during cleaning will destroy the filter.
STEP ONE:
SCALE REMOVAL
BASE
1. Fill the Base with:
• 1 cup (8 ozs.) of undiluted white vinegar
2. Let solution stand for 20 minutes.
3. With the vinegar in the Base, clean all interior
surfaces with a soft cloth or brush to help
remove scales.
4. Rinse the Base thoroughly with water to
remove scale and cleaning solution.
NOTES:
• 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.
• If you are experiencing more buildup than when you first purchased your humidifier, you may need to
replace your Protec
protection.
