Sears 758.144533 Humidifier User Manual


 
Using Your Humidifier
Step 1
Be sure unit is full of water and plugged
in.
Step 2
Set the Fan selection switch to "2". This
will allow both fans to operate if the humi-
distat senses humidity is needed.
Step 3
Set speed control to low.
Step 4
Set Humidity Control to medium position.
NOTE: Humidifier should operate with
humidity control on the recommended
MEDIUM setting. If it does not, the humidity
is at a relatively high level. To test the unit
under this condition, turn Humidity Control
all the way to MAX and unit should begin to
operate. After unit has been tested, set
Humidity Control to MEDIUM or desired
level.
Allow 24 hours for humidifier to adjust.
If humidity level in home is sufficient, the
humidifier will only operate with Humidity
Control set on maximum.
IMPORTANT: Water damage may result if
condensation starts to form on windows
or walls. Humidity Control setting should
be lowered until condensation no longer
forms.
Step 5
If humidifier stops running, the humidity
level is at the normal requirements for that
setting or it is adjusting to the home condi-
tions. The table below shows approximate
relative humidity percentages which cor-
respond to the various settings of the
Humidity Control.
