m We recommend using B 200 Bacteriostat
treatment when you refill the water bottle to
eliminate bacterial growth. Add bacteriostat
according to the instructions on the bottle and
then tighten the valve cap on your water bottle.
m For optimum running time, fill the water bot-
tle, tighten the cap, and place inside unit, al-
lowing it to completely drain into the water
reservoir. Then refill the bottle and replace in
the cabinet. Do not fill the reservoir bucket,
as overfilling will result in water damage.
Use only the bottle provided.
04. Operation
1. Plug cord into wall receptacle. Your humidifier is
now ready for use. The humidifier should be placed
at least FOUR inches away from any walls and away
from heat registers. Unrestricted airflow into the unit
will result in the best efficiency and performance.
2. The B 200 allows you to use the low setting for the
quietest operation.
3. All models have an automatic humidistat. The hu-
midistat will turn the humidifier on when the rela-
tive humidity in your home is below the humidistat
setting and will turn the humidifier off when the rel-
ative humidity reaches the humidistat setting. For
initial operation, set the humidistat at its midpoint
"two-droplet" setting and adjust up or down from
there to achieve the desired humidity level.

4. The refill light will indicate when the unit is com-
pletely out of water. The motor will also shut off. To
refill, see Step 9.
m When excessive condensation exists, a low-
er speed setting is recommended.
m Disconnect power before filling, cleaning or
servicing unit. Keep grille dry at all times.
Optional AirCare
The first stage of the air filter is a high-efficiency,
electrostatically charged filter media which traps
dust, pollen, and airborne pollutants. The second
stage is an activated carbon media which absorbs
odors from cooking, pets, or tobacco smoke. We rec-
ommend replacing the AirCare filter at least once a
year and more often if necessary. When the white fil-
ter media is coated with a layer of dust and dirt, it is
time to replace the AirCare filter. The certified water
output of your humidifier will be reduced when using
the AirCare filter. AirCare filters are optional and are
not required for normal operation of the humidifier.
05. Care and Maintenance
Cleaning your humidifier regularly helps eliminate
odors and bacterial and fungal growth. Ordinary
household bleach is a good disinfectant and can be
used to wipe out the humidifier base and bottle/res-
ervoir after cleaning. We recommend cleaning your
humidifier at least once every two weeks to maintain
optimum environmental conditions for your home.
