WATER SPILLAGE.
Many regions have hard water with high
concentrations of minerals. When water evaporates
from The Care Free® Evaporative Humidifier,
minerals may be left behind. These minerals can
form a hard white scale which can be removed by
following the cleaning instructions. The frequency
of cleaning due to mineral build up can vary
depending upon the quality of water you may have.
Refer to Figure 1 for part names.
1. Turn the humidifier 'OFF' and unplug the unit.
2. Lift the main housing and remove the water
dispersion tray and the PermaWick™ Filters. The
motor is attached to the main housing. Do not place
the motor near water. Do not use a wet towel on
the motor or motor housing as electrical shock may
occur.
3. The PermaWick™ Filter should be cleaned in a
vinegar and water solution to remove any mineral
buildup. Place in a solution of one (1) gallon
of water and eight (8) ounces of undiluted white
vinegar. Allow the filter to soak for 20 minutes.
4. After soaking, rinse it several times with clean
water. Place the PermaWick™ Filter in a location
where it can drip dry while you clean the other
parts of your humidifier.

Cleaning the Humidifier and the Water Tank

tank upright and place it on the humidifier. Be
sure that the tank is seated properly in the base.
If the tank is properly located on the base, you
will see air bubbles flowing up into the tank.
5. Place the full tank on the unit and allow the
water to fill the bottom tray. The water is at the
proper level in the bottom tray when the tanks
stops bubbling. Run the unit on "HI" speed for
11⁄2 minutes for optimum pump operation. Set
the unit to the desired speed.

any water that is left in the tank. Reseat the main
housing onto the base of the humidifier and fill
the base with a mixture of one (1) gallon of water
and eight (8) ounces of vinegar. Allow to sit for 20
minutes.
6. After soaking, remove the main housing and
wipe with a dry, soft cloth or sponge to remove
any mineral build up around the bottom. Rinse the
base with clean water several times. Do not rinse
the main housing. If you are planning on storing
the humidifier, be sure the base is completely dry.
7. Fill the water tank with one (1) gallon of water and
eight ounces of undiluted white vinegar. Replace
the tank cap and shake the tank vigorously until
all interior surfaces of the tank have been
exposed to the water/vinegar mixture.
