Cleaning Your Humidifier
To keep your humidifier running efficiently, clean it regularly. Weekly cleaning is recommended. All maintenance
should be done in the kitchen or bathroom on a water resistant surface near a faucet.
To properly clean your humidifier, we recommend the separate processes of Scale Removal and Disinfecting.
These two processes must be performed separately.
Before Cleaning
If the humidifier has recently been in use
on the warm setting, wait at least 20
minutes for unit to cool before beginning
the cleaning process.
1.
Turn off and unplug humidifier.
NEVER clean the humidifier when it is running.
2.
Remove Water Tank and empty completely. Remove any accessories from the water tank.
3.
Ensure Chimney is removed (See Disassembly below), then pour solution from the Base into the sink. Be
sure to pour out of the side of the Base, as indicated by an arrow, to avoid leaking into the Control Panel.
4.
Replace Chimney and Chimney Cover before beginning the cleaning process.
Disassembly
1.
Mist Chimney Cover – a) slide blue
latch and b) remove.
2.
Mist Chimney – grasp Chimney and
pull straight up.

Chimney Cover (optional).

Pour 2.5 cups (.6 liters) of undiluted distilled white vinegar into the Water Tank.

buildup on the Nebulizer, Heating Element and Float, and in the bottom of the Tank. Soak for 20 minutes.
