  • Near an open flame, a heater, hot burner, oven or another source of high heat, near electrical equipment or in direct sunlight.

• Water usage: For personal safety and proper functionality of the appliance use only clean, untainted tap water. If the source of the water is polluted and you are not sure about its safety, please use distilled water. It is recommended to perform the cleaning of the appliance according to page 13 of this user manual, under the “Care and cleaning” section.

Essential Oils Guide
Essential oils are extracts from plants and are commonly used in aromatherapy, where they are believed to have a myriad of health benefits. When used in a diffuser, these oils are diluted (for 75 mL of water, about 3-4 drops should be sufficient) and the water is then diffused and gradually released into the air.

However, there are some important things to consider before using essential oils in your diffuser, as some people have allergies or sensitivities to certain extracts. Many essential oils are toxic or potentially fatal to pets or are unsafe for use around children, or pregnant/breastfeeding women.

In addition, be careful not to get any essential oils directly on your skin – they can be abrasive when undiluted. Check with your healthcare provider if you are in any doubt as to this product’s suitability. If you or someone else has a negative reaction to essential oil, seek medical assistance immediately.

This table outlines some of the benefits claimed to be associated with the following essential oils:
