Maintenance

Filter Maintenance

We recommend periodically checking and cleaning filters for optimal performance. Under normal conditions of continuous use the pre-filter should be cleaned every 3 months (approximately 2,160 hours) and the HEPA filter should be cleaned every 6 months (approximately 4,320 hours). This estimate is only a guide. Depending on air quality and environmental factors, filters may need to be cleaned more regularly. To clean your filters, use a vacuum extension.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT use water, any liquid or detergents to clean the filters. Remove any packaging and plastic bag from the new filter before replacement.

Filter Replacement

1. Power off and unplug the product.
2. Gently take off back grille.
3. Grab the tab to remove the filter from the compartment.
4. Remove the pre-filter from the HEPA filter.
5. Clean or replace both filters.
6. Align the pre-filter with the HEPA filter and firmly press to attach.
7. Put the filter back in the compartment.
8. Put the grille back into place and dispose of dirty filters.
9. Press and hold the filter indicator button to reset the filter indicator light. The unit will beep 3 times to indicate reset.

Cleanable Wick

We recommend periodically checking and cleaning your synthetic wick for optimal performance. Under normal water conditions of continuous use the wick should be cleaned every 1-3 months. This estimate is only a guide. Depending on your water quality and environmental factors, the wick may need to be cleaned more regularly.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT use any detergents to clean the wick.

Cleaning the Synthetic Wick

1. Power off and unplug the product, ensure water tank is empty.
2. Remove the top cover from the unit.
3. Grab the handle inside the tank to remove the tank. Sit it on a sturdy surface.
4. Remove the wick from the tank. WARNING: The wick may be saturated with water and drip when removed.
5. Rinse the wick with water and vinegar.
6. Allow the wick to air dry before placing it back inside the tank.
7. Lift the tank by the handle to place back inside the unit.
8. Place top cover on the unit and resume use.

Note

• ALWAYS unplug the product from electrical outlet before cleaning. NEVER allow water to sit in water tank when not in use.
• Hard water can cause calcium and magnesium to build up in a “white powder” on base of unit, transducer and inner surface of water tank. Overtime, this can cause humidifier to stop working properly. Note: It is recommended to clean the water tank daily, and clean the synthetic wick every 1-3 months, depending on water hardness. Note: Water tank should be emptied and cleaned before storage.

Daily Maintenance

It is recommended to refill the water tank every day to avoid odor from sitting water and hard water build up.

1. Turn off product and unplug from wall outlet.
2. Remove top cover.
3. Grab handle and lift water tank out of the unit. Drain any water into a sink or tub. Shake water tank gently to remove any remaining water.
4. Rinse water tank thoroughly with water, empty, and wipe with a dry, soft cloth.
5. Wipe product base with a dry cloth if necessary.
6. Refill water tank as directed under initial setup and resume use.
