Remove the Water Tank from the Base and turn it upside down. Turn the Tank Cap
counterclockwise to open. Rinse and wipe clean.
Fill the Water Tank with clean, cool, tap water and replace the Tank Cap by firmly
turning clockwise. Turn the Tank upright and check Tank Cap for leaks. If any water
drips from Tank Cap, remove it and re-tighten. Use of very cold water may
temporarily reduce the mist output. Never fill the humidifier with hot or
warm water as this could cause damage and void your warranty.
To avoid white dust we recommend using a Protec Demineralization Cartridge (Model
PDC-51) and replacing it after 30-40 fillings. If you live in an extremely hard water
area you may also wish to use distilled water to further reduce white dust. Refer to
About White Dust section.
Inspect the Base and Nebulizer for cleanliness. Refer to Care and Cleaning section.
Replace the Water Tank on the Base.
