WARNING: To reduce the risk of
injury, fire or damage to humidifier,
use only cleaners specifically rec-
ommended for humidifiers. Never
use flammable, combustible or poi-
sonous materials to clean your
humidifier. To reduce the risk of
scalds and damage to humidifier,
never put hot water in humidifier.
CAUTION: Local water purity varies
from area to area and under certain
conditions water impurities and air-
borne bacteria may promote the
growth of micro-organisms in the
reservoir of the humidifier.
To retard bacteria growth that may
cause odors and be harmful to your
health, use only Emerson HDC-2R
or HDC411 replacement filters. We
also recommend using liquid EPA-
approved bacteriostat, available at
your local retail store.
NOTE: If it is necessary to use approved
bacteriostat, follow directions correctly.

should be emptied. To accomplish this,
allow the humidifier to run until the

plugged, fan could start after housing
is removed.
Refer to pages 9 and 10 to remove parts if
necessary.

of the humidifier cabinet, we recommend
moving the humidifier to an area where
floor coverings are not susceptible to
water damage, i.e., kitchen or bath area.
