IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
READ BEFORE USING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
1) This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this plug is intended to fit into a polarized 120-volt AC, 15 amp outlet, and only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat
this safety feature. If an extension cord must be used, it should also accept the wide blade plug and meet this
electrical rating.
2) Do not place the cord under rugs, near loose drapes, in traffic areas, nor near heat sources or combustible
materials.
3) Do not use the humidifier if the cord is damaged.
4) Always unplug the power cord before filling, cleaning, servicing, or when the unit is not in use.
5) Care must be used when filling. Remove top grille and fill through the left opening between wick and sidewall of
cabinet. Any water spilled on chassis must be dried before energizing humidifier.
6) This humidifier is UL listed with Bemis by Essick Air brand evaporative wicks in place. To maintain your UL
rating, see your service center for all repairs.
7) It is very important that cleaning solutions such as bleach, anti-bacteria treatment or descaler, which could be
used to clean the cabinet, are not sprayed or applied to the chassis assembly. These solutions can cause
serious electrical malfunction of the humidifier.
INTRODUCTION
Your Bemis by Essick Air evaporative humidifier adds invisible moisture to your home by moving dry inlet air
through a saturated wick. As air moves through the wick, the water evaporates into the air, leaving behind any
white dust, minerals, or dissolved and suspended solids. Because the water is evaporated, there is no messy mist
or spray and no white dust, just clean and invisible moist air.
As the evaporative wick traps accumulated minerals from the water, its ability to absorb and evaporate water
decreases. We recommend changing the wick at the beginning of every season. In hard water areas, more
frequent replacement may be necessary to maintain your humidifier's efficiency.
Use only Bemis by Essick Air brand replacement wicks and chemicals. To order parts, wicks and chemicals
call 1-800-547-3888. The 500 Series humidifiers use Bemis by Essick Air wick #1040. Only the Bemis by Essick
Air evaporative wick guarantees the certified output of your humidifier. Use of wicks other than Bemis by Essick Air
brand will void your warranty as well as the certification of output and may reduce the efficiency and output of your
humidifier.
CAUTION:
Do NOT position the unit directly in front of a hot air duct or radiator
ASSEMBLY, FILLING & OPERATION
ASSEMBLY
1) Unpack humidifier from carton.
2) Remove all packaging material, wicks, etc. from cabinet.
3) The wicks are located by four pairs of ribs in the bottom of the cabinet. Locate
the two wicks. Insert them by dropping each once down into the locating ribs (see
illustration).
4) After inserting the wicks, place the transition molding on top of them, flange side
up. The notch along one side of the transition goes to the back of the cabinet.
5) Place the chassis unit into the cabinet, with the switch to the back and hang it on to the mounts at the front and
back inside the cabinet.
FILLING
6) Before replacing the top grille, fill the reservoir with water. DO NOT POUR WATER OVER THE ELECTRICAL
CHASSIS. Fill the cabinet only through the opening between the left wick and the cabinet sidewall, to the level
marked "FILL TO HERE" on the left side rear wall of the cabinet. If water spills on the chassis, it must be
allowed to dry completely before energizing the humidifier. If you have only softened water available in your
home, you can use it, but you will notice a build up of minerals on the evaporative wicks much sooner.
Reservoir capacity is 3.0 gallons. DO NOT OVERFILL.
