Vaporizer will produce a gentle flow of steam within
a few minutes. If steaming does not start within ten
minutes, you may need to add salt. Please see step 7
and the Troubleshooting checklist.
Vaporizer will automatically stop producing steam
when water has reached minimum level (about 3/4
inch from bottom of container).
The night-light will remain on, indicating that the
vaporizer is plugged in. ALWAYS unplug steam unit
and allow to cool for 20-30 minutes before removing
from the water container.
Under conditions of rapid boiling and near the end
of each operation, steam may emerge from SAFETY
VENTS (above and on both sides of the steam vent).
This condition is normal, preventing over boiling by
relieving steam pressure

IF YOUR VAPORIZER FAILS TO STEAM AFTER 10-15 MINUTES YOU MAY
HAVE LOW MINERAL CONTENT IN YOUR WATER. For areas where tap
water has low to moderate mineral content ADD SALT. For tap water of
low to moderate mineral content, ADD 1 TO 2 PINCHES (1/8 teaspoon) of
ordinary table salt to the water and mix thoroughly. After 10 minutes if
your vaporizer still does not produce steam add another pinch or 2 of salt.
Salt has no effect on the purity of the steam or medication.
CAUTION:
BLOWN FUSE OR TRIPPED CIRCUIT BREAKER.
NOTE: Please do not add salt to your vaporizer each time you operate the
product. Salt will build up over time and you may not need to repeat
the process. Before adding salt operate your vaporizer following
steps 1-4. If vaporizer does not produce steam after 15 minutes
gradually add salt following the above directions.
8.
USE FRESH WATER AND MEDICATION each time vaporizer is used.
9.
AFTER EACH USE. Once the vaporizer has been allowed to cool, empty
any unused water from the water container. Shake the container gently
back and forth to remove any remaining water. Rinse the container
thoroughly, drain and wipe with a dry, clean cloth.
NOTE: All medicinal ingredients in Vicks
leaving only the mineral oil base in medication cup. This should be
emptied and cleaned with a piece of cotton.
IMPORTANT: To maintain proper operation of your vaporizer, be sure to follow
the Care and Cleaning instructions.
Do not lift or move the vaporizer while it is in use.
