Cleaning and Maintenance (cont'd.)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of shock,
always unplug humidifier before cleaning
or servicing. If humidifier is not unplugged,
fan could start after housing is removed.
Step 2:
To Remove Parts
a. Open the pivoting lid and remove water
bottles and set aside. Grasp the fan
assembly front center and rear center.
Lift off and set aside on a clean flat
surface. The filter housings are now
accessible.
b. Before removing the internal parts of
the humidifier cabinet, we recommend
moving the humidifier to an area
where floor covers are not susceptible
to water damage, i.e.; kitchen or bath
area. Lift the filter housing assemblies
out of the cabinet and set to the side.
c. Remove the water level float from the
humidifier cabinet by pinching the float
retainer to release it from the cabinet.
The cabinet should be empty before
cleaning. The cabinet consists of the
lower areas of the humidifier where
the filters are during normal operation
time.
d. Empty cabinet of any remaining water.
e. Proceed to "Bi-Weekly Maintenance" or
"End of Season Maintenance".
f. Remove old filters and dispose of
properly as described on pages 11-12.
Step 3:
Install new filters (purchase the correct
evaporative wicking filter pads 32-14911
for your humidifier) into the location
where the old filters were positioned.
Install the filter housings with the new
filters into the correct location. Reinstall
the water level float.
NOTE: Float retainer should be
positioned in normal operating mode.
Assure that it is positioned in the bottom
of the slot in the back of the cabinet (See
page 9 for diagram of slot).
Position the fan assembly on top of the
cabinet and return the humidifier to the
desired location for use.
Refill humidifier bottles with fresh cool
water and return them to the cabinet.
Plug the unit into a 120 volt A.C. power
outlet and set the controls per the
"Operating Humidifier Controls" section
(page 8) of this manual.
