and keep maximum efficiency, the wicking
filter should be replaced at least once per

conditions. Use AIRCARE

Replace the evaporative wicking filter at
the beginning of humidification season
and more often in depending on water
conditions in your area.
Wicking Filter Replacement
1)
Unplug humidifier. Before removing
the filter, we recommend moving the
humidifier to an area where floor
coverings are not susceptible to water
damage (i.e. kitchen or bath areas.)
2) Remove the water bottle and set aside. Be sure not to bump or damage the
fill valve.
3) Grasp the housing assembly and lift straight up and away from the base and
set aside. The wicking filter is now accessible.
4) Take note of the filter position.
Remove the filter. You may want to
clean the base at this time. See the
"Care and Maintenance" section
of this manual.
5) Install a new wicking filter (MAF2) into
the base. Coil the filter and position it
between the uprights in the bottom of the
base. The start and finish of the coil should
be captured at the center of the base (see
diagram) and the filter should be resting
on the floor of the base.
6) Return the housing assembly to the top of the base. Reposition the humidifier
to its operating position.
