1. Disconnect the humidifier and remove top of unit.

Seal humidifier opening with a soft cloth to prevent moisture from
escaping.
3. Plug unit into 120 volt outlet and run for 30 minutes with opening sealed.
Operate unit in an empty bathtub to avoid damage to surrounding area
from bleach water.

bleach smell is gone.

Failure to properly clean your humidifier will result in the build up of harmful
bacteria and mold.
In areas where tap water contains excessive mineral matter, a white dust
may accumulate in the area near the humidifier. This white dust can be
readily removed with a cloth or vacuum cleaner or be completely eliminated
by using distilled water. The white dust is not a defect in the humidifier, but
is due to minerals suspended in the water. DO NOT use any type of water
conditioning tablet as it may cause other problems.
DO NOT
add medication of any type to the
/
water in the container.
DO NOT
use impeller stem as a handle.
This could damage your
humidifier.
Do not allow humidifier to stand with water unused; this could cause
growth of fungi.
It will not harm unit to continue running without water, if the water is used
up during normal operation. However, do not leave humidifier plugged in
when not in use.
