CHECK FILTER
The ability of any humidifier to efficiently supply humidity output relies heavily on the
condition of the filter. As the filter loads with impurities it gradually loses its wicking
capability. When this happens, moisture output is reduced and the humidifier has to work
longer to satisfy the selected setting
1) This humidifier has a check filter reminder timed to appear after
720 hours of operation. When the Check Filter (CF) message is
displayed, disconnect the power cord and check the condition of
the filter. If a build-up of deposits or severe discoloration is
evident replace the filter to restore maximum efficiency.
2) The CF function is reset after plugging the unit back in.

This humidifier is built to accommodate the two-stage 1050 optional air purifying

traps dust, pollen and airborne pollutants. The second stage is an activated carbon
media which absorbs odors from cooking, pets or tobacco smoke.

necessary. When the white filter media is coated with a layer of dust and dirt, it is
time to replace the filter.
