Important Safety Instructions
READ AND SAVE THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE. WHEN
USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC PRECAUTIONS
SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE
RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND INJURY TO
PERSONS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
1.
The appliance should always be placed on a firm,
flat, waterproof surface at least four feet away from
bedside, six inches from the wall and out of reach of
patients, children and pets. Be sure the appliance is
in a stable position and the power cord is away from
heated surfaces and out of the way to prevent the
humidifier from being tipped over.
2.
The appliance should not be left unattended in a
closed room since air could become saturated and
leave condensation on walls and furniture. Leave
room door partly open. Do not aim mist output grille
directly at children, walls or furniture.
3.
Before using the appliance, extend the cord and
inspect for any signs of damage. Do not use the unit
if the cord has been damaged.
4
. The appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other) as a safety feature. This plug
will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do
not
attempt to defeat this safety feature.
5.
To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance
directly into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
6.
The appliance should always be unplugged and
emptied when not in operation or while being
cleaned. Unplug humidifier before moving.
Do not
move or tilt humidifier while it is in operation. Plug
and unplug unit with dry hands.
Never
pull by cord.
7.
Do not
operate the appliance without water. Unplug
when tank is empty.
8.
Caution:
To avoid the risk of fire, shock or personal
injury, do not use an extension cord.
9.
Appliance requires regular cleaning. Refer to, and
follow cleaning instructions.
10.
Do not
operate outdoors; this appliance is intended
for indoor use.
11.
Do not
cover or insert objects into any openings on
the unit.
12.
Do not
attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or
mechanical functions on this appliance. Doing so will
void your warranty.
13.
Do not
add any medications (e.g., Kaz Inhalant or
Vicks VapoSteam®) into Nozzle, Base, Reservoir or
Water Tank.
14.
For residential use only.
15.
In certain areas, tap water is extremely hard,
containing a higher-than-normal concentration of
various minerals
.
These minerals can be emitted into
the air, possibly causing adverse reactions in people
with breathing difficulties. In such cases, use only
distilled or demineralized water and clean the humidifier
every day. (See
Care and Cleaning
instructions.)
16.
If you have breathing difficulties, consult your
physician before using any humidification product.
17
. In hard-water areas, a white dust may form on
furniture as a result of the minerals from the
water. This can easily be wiped away with a
cloth.
To avoid the white dust, use distilled water.
+ As a condition of sale, the purchaser assumes
responsibility for the proper care and use of this appliance
in accordance with our printed instructions. The purchaser
or user must judge for himself or herself when to use it
and how long to use it for.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the unit does not operate:
Check that plug is fully inserted into wall outlet.
Check airflow. Are there any obstructions preventing
airflow?
The motor contains a temperature-limiting fuse. If the
motor overheats, the fuse will trip and shut off the
motor. Unplug the unit and contact our Customer Service
Department. Do not attempt to repair the motor yourself.
If you do not obtain enough humidity:
BECAUSE OF BREAK-IN CHARACTERISTICS, MAXIMUM
OUTPUT WILL NOT BE REACHED UNTIL THE UNIT HAS
BEEN USED SEVERAL TIMES.
If the air in the room is extremely dry, there will be
greater absorption of the vapor and faster depletion of
the water reservoir. As the humidity increases, output
will decrease and adding of water will be required less
frequently. This variation is normal.
Under certain conditions the moisture output may not be
visible. The humidifier is operating properly if the water
level continues to go down during usage, even when you
cannot see the vapor.
If you are obtaining too much humidity and water
falls out around the unit:
Room air may be excessively humid (greater than 60%
relative humidity); do not use humidifier. Oversaturated
air can cause
condensation in front of the unit, on
wall or furniture.
For proper humidity readings, use
a humidity monitor available at most hardware and
department stores.
The humidifier needs cleaning. Follow
Care and
Cleaning
instructions.
Medication or other additives may have been added to
the water. Follow
Care and Cleaning
instructions.
If the unit is making a rattling noise:
Check to make sure pickup tube is on tightly and the
head is on correctly.
Reposition the unit and make sure it is on a level surface.
