Using Your Ultrasonic Humidifier
First Time Use
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
Unpack and remove all packing material from the Water Tank, Mist Nozzle and Base.
Completely unravel power cord and place unit on a flat, stable surface. Remove the protective
wrapper from the Demineralization Cartridge and place into the unit as shown. Follow the
directions below to fill and operate the humidifier.
Filling the Water Tank
Remove the Water Tank from the Base and turn it upside down. Turn the Tank Cap
counterclockwise to open. Rinse and wipe clean.
Fill the Water Tank with clean, cool, tap water and replace the Tank Cap by firmly turning
clockwise. Turn the Tank upright and check Tank Cap for leaks. If any water drips from
Tank Cap, remove it and re-tighten. Use of very cold water may temporarily
reduce the mist output. Never fill the humidifier with hot or warm water as
this could cause damage and void your warranty.
To avoid white dust we recommend using a Kaz Demineralization Cartridge (Model DC-
51) and replacing it after 30-40 fillings. If you live in an extremely hard water area you
may also wish to use distilled water to further reduce white dust. Refer to About White
Dust section.
Inspect the Base and Nebulizer for cleanliness. Refer to Care and Cleaning section.
Replace the Water Tank on the Base.

Operating Instructions
Do not operate the humidifier without water in the Water Tank.
After filling the humidifier, be sure the Power Knob is in the OFF position, then plug the
power cord into a 120 volt AC wall outlet.
Turn the Power Knob to the On position and then set mist intensity.
Mist will not appear immediately; allow a few minutes for the water to fill the
Reservoir. If you are using a new Demineralization Cartridge, it may take up to fifteen
minutes for the filtering material to become saturated and for mist to appear.
Direct Mist Nozzle away from walls and furniture. If condensation forms on walls or
windows, or if indoor relative humidity exceeds 50%, reduce mist intensity setting, open
door to room where humidifier is operating, or turn unit off.
If mist is not produced, unplug cord and check the Water Sensor in the Reservoir to
ensure it is in contact with the water. The water level in the Base must be high enough to
partially immerse the Water Sensor in order for the humidifier to work.
Turn the humidifier off before removing and refilling the Water Tank. When the tank is
empty the mist will stop although the fan will continue to operate.
