STARTING UP

HANDLING

CONTROLLING HUMIDITY

The BONECO S250 is equipped with a hygrostat that continuously monitors the humidity in the room and regulates the unit’s operation. The adjustable range is between 30% and 70%.

If the water tank is empty, automatic shut-off prevents the appliance from overheating or becoming damaged.

Switch on the BONECO S250.
Use the and buttons to set the desired humidity. The display shows the note DESIRED (“desired”).
A few seconds after the last input, the display changes back to CURRENT. The display now shows the current humidity again.

The BONECO S250 stops humidification once the desired value is reached. Humidification continues automatically as soon as the set value is no longer met.

REGULATING OUTPUT
The performance of the BONECO S250 is regulated in two levels.

Press the button to switch between the two performance levels.

The selected level is shown on the display by the symbols (“High”) and (“Low”).

The selected level does not affect the measurement or the control functions of the hygrostat.

CLEANING

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Always unplug the BONECO S250 before you start cleaning it! Failure to do so can result in electric shock and fatal injury!

Do not use alcohol or corrosive cleaning agents for cleaning.

CLEANING THE HOUSING

In most cases, a dry cloth can be used for cleaning.
If stubborn dirt is present, clean the housing using a damp cloth. Add a small amount of dishwashing detergent to the water. Household cloths and window cleaners can also be used.

REPLACING THE ANTI-MINERAL PAD

The anti-mineral pad absorbs lime in the water so that it is not released into the ambient air. Over time, the anti-mineral pad becomes hard and less effective due to the absorbed lime.

Check the anti-mineral pad after each cleaning. Replace the anti-mineral pad if it feels hard and rigid.

You can find replacements at your BONECO specialist dealer or in our online store at this address: www.shop.boneco.com

CLEANING FUNCTION

PROCEDURE

Although the anti-mineral pad absorbs most of the lime in the water, the heating plate of the BONECO S250 experiences calcification after an extended operating time.

An upcoming need for cleaning is indicated on the display by the symbol.

To make descaling easy and convenient, the BONECO S250 is equipped with an automatic cleaning function. This warms and cools the heating plate multiple times in order that the lime becomes crumbly and can be easily removed.

STARTING THE CLEANING

Switch off the BONECO S250 and let it cool down for 1 hour.
Remove the anti-mineral pad and empty the water tank.
Mix 1 bag CalcOff® with 1 liter (about 1 quart) of warm tap water.
Add the mixture to the BONECO S250.
. Press the button for 3 seconds to start the cleaning.
Select the duration of cleaning you want (1 to 9 hours) using the and buttons. If stubborn mineral deposits are left after cleaning, you can always extend or repeat the cleaning process.
Unplug the BONECO S250 and rinse the water tank with tap water.
Place the anti-mineral pad back into the water tank.

FRAGRANCE CONTAINER

ABOUT THE FRAGRANCE CONTAINER

The fragrance container is integrated into the steam tube cover.

Fragrances must not be directly added to the water tank, water base or evaporator basin because the material and, consequently, the appliance are damaged.
