into it. Should this nevertheless occur, it will be necessary to remove the
water container (2) and rinse it. Fragrances should not be permitted to
enter the water tank, since they might destroy the plastic.
Important information
Humidification with an evaporator takes time. This means that it usually
takes more than 2–3 hours to reach the desired humidity. If you operate the
humidifier in a very dry environment we recommend to operate it on speed
level 2 to reach a maximum amount of humidity in a short time.
Cleaning and cassette replacement
Prior to any maintenance work and after each use, switch off the appliance
and withdraw the mains cable from the socket.
Never immerse in water (risk of short circuit).
• External surfaces should only be wiped off with a damp cloth and then
dried well.
• Every 2 weeks: To clean the inside, remove the filter cassette and
descale the lower part if necessary. After descaling, thoroughly rinse the
lower part and then dry it before putting the air humidifier into operation
again.
• For hygienic and optimum operation of the air humidifier, the filter cas-
sette must be replaced every 2 – 3 months. If the filter cassette remains in
use for longer than this, on the one hand the humidity output may decline
severely and on the other, the anti-bacterial action of the cassette can no
longer be guaranteed. The filter cassette can be obtained from the dealer
where you purchased your Oskar little.
Water Cube™
Attention: Remove water cube from plastic bag before use.
The water cube (13) keeps the humidifier fresh using activated carbon and
therefore ensures an optimal performance of the humidifier. Activated car-
bons's range of application for example includes the use in water purifica-
tion to remove pollutants, reduce heavy metals and odor-causing chemicals.
The water cube starts working as soon as it comes into contact with water,
and also works when the unit is switched off. The lifetime of the water cube
is around one year. We therefore recommend that you replace the water
cube at the beginning of every humidifying season.
Repairs

electrical technician. If improper repairs are carried out, the warranty

• Never operate the appliance if the adaptor or plug is damaged, after it has
malfunctioned, if it has been dropped or has been damaged in any other
way (cracks/breaks in the casing).
• Do not push any object into the appliance.
• If the appliance is beyond repair, make it unusable immediately by cutting
through the cable and hand it in at the collection point provided for the
purpose.
