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, 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, in traffic areas, or near heat sources.
3) Do not use the humidifier if the cord is damaged.
4) Always unplug the power cord before cleaning, servicing or when the unit
is not in use.
5) Do not place the humidifier near loose drapes, combustible materials, or
heat-producing objects.
6) This humidifier is UL approved with Bemis by Essick Air brand evaporative
wicks in place. To maintain your UL rating, see your service center for all
repairs. Use only Bemis by Essick Air brand replacement wicks and
chemicals. To order parts, wicks and chemicals call 1- 800-547-3888.
7) Regular cleaning is recommended. Refer to CARE & MAINTENANCE
section in this manual
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 chang-
ing the wick at least once a year
, preferably disposing of the used one at
the end of the humidifying season and starting with a new one at the
beginning of the next humidifying season. In hard water areas, more
frequent replacement may be necessary to maintain your humidifier's
efficiency.
