-
Never pull the mains adapter out of the socket by the cable or with wet hands.

In such cases, arrange for the appliance to be repaired.
-
Make sure that other electrical or sensitive appliances are positioned far enough away from the aroma diffuser during atomisation, in order to prevent them from being impaired or damaged.
-
Do not pour essential oils onto the plastic base of the appliance or onto the ultrasonic converter on the water tank. If a drop of essential oil falls onto the base, wipe it off immediately using a damp cloth.
-
Risk of vaporized fluids. The appliance is only to be used with the essential oil which complies with the requirement of the health standard of your country. Please notice the instruction for use of the essential oil. The use of other substances may give rise to a toxic or fire risk.
-
Oils of poor quality or oils containing the chemical compounds phenols, ketones and aldehydes, may damage the appliance.
-
You can atomise essential oils in the presence of children, provided that the room is adequately ventilated and that the atomised essential oils are suitable for diffusion.

Never use the diffuser with essential oils only: You must always add water to the oil once you have filled the water tank.
-
Do not fill the appliance with corrosive liquids.
-
Please unplug the appliance during filling the water tank.

Use
The WMF Ambient aroma diffuser is suitable for atomising essential oils in
your home. You need to add water and essential oils, which are not included in
the delivery scope.
You can use all essential oils that are suitable for diffusion.
We recommend using natural essential oils.
If desired, the decorative Ambient light can also be switched on alongside the
atomisation function via ultrasonic technology. The light function can be
switched off automatically using the timer or can be used as a decorative
element in the home without using the atomising function.
Using the appliance for the first time
- Before using the appliance for the first time, clean the lid and the water tank as described in the section “Cleaning and care”.
- Connect the appliance using the power cable and connect the mains adapter. Make sure that no electrically conductive objects are placed near the appliance, and ensure that the cable is not twisted in order to guarantee trouble-free use of the WMF Easy Touch technology.
- Remove the lid, fill the water tank with water to the MAX marker and add around three drops (recommended amount for a 90-minute fragrance experience) of an essential oil (adjust intensity of fragrance by means of number of drops of oil).
Warning: Never pour essential oils directly onto the ultrasonic converter
on the base of the water tank.
Note: You can operate the appliance with an empty water tank. In this
case, the atomisation function is deactivated and you can use the appliance as
a decorative element.
-
With a full water tank, the atomisation function can run for around four hours (adjust the amount of water accordingly, depending on the desired atomisation time).
After four hours of atomisation, leave the appliance to stand for 30 minutes. -
Then reposition the lid and rotate the mist outlet in the required direction.
Warning: If you operate the diffuser without the lid in place, this could cause the mixture of water and oil to discharge uncontrollably out of the appliance. The mixture of oil and water can damage furniture.
- If the touch button is gently touched, the appliance is switched on.
- Atomisation begins immediately, the white Ambient light illuminates and the timer is preset to ∞.
- Atomisation continues until the water tank is empty. The white Ambient light remains on in accordance with the timer setting (∞) until the appliance is switched off.
- If the touch button is gently touched, the appliance is switched off.
- If no personalised settings are made for the Ambient light as described in the section “Personalised setting”, the presetting remains active.
Personalised setting
You can adjust the timer or the colour of the Ambient light to your own personal preference.
- To change the presetting, you must switch the appliance into setting mode. To do this, touch the touch button for at least two seconds, until you hear a sound. The appliance is now in setting mode.
Ambient light timer setting
You can now set the illumination duration of the Ambient light to 30, 60 or 90 minutes or to an unlimited time (∞).
- By gently touching the touch button, the timer display changes from “30” to “60”, from “60” to “90”, from “90” to “∞” until you reach the desired setting. Example: If you touch the touch button while the timerdisplay is lit, the Ambient light is programmed to switch off after 60 minutes.
- A sound is emitted to confirm the setting.
Ambient light colour setting
-
The LED surfaces (Ambient light) start to light up and the colour slowly begins to change.
-
All seven colours light up one after the other. You can select the desired colour by gently touching the touch button.
-
The cycle of seven colours is repeated three times. You can select the desired colour setting during these cycles.
Note: After each cycle, the Ambient light switches off briefly. If you wish to use the atomisation function without the Ambient light, you must touch the touch button while the Ambient light is switched off. A sound is emitted to confirm the setting.
If you do not perform any specific colour settings during the three colour cycles by gently touching the touch button, the colour cycle is selected as the colour setting.
A sound is emitted to confirm the setting. -
The stored, personalised setting is programmed for future use of the aroma diffuser.
Cleaning and care
Before cleaning the aroma diffuser, you must first disconnect the power and
remove the cable from the appliance.
After each time you use the atomisation function, you must empty the water
tank by removing the lid and stainless steel casing. Clean the lid and the
water tank very thoroughly in order to remove any germs that are in the water.
Fill the water tank with water and add a gentle washing-up liquid or standard
descaling agent. Clean the water tank using the washing-up brush supplied in
the delivery scope, and rinse out the tank thoroughly with water. Then dry the
water tank using a cloth.
Never immerse the appliance in water! You can clean the Cromargan® exterior
using a slightly damp cloth.
Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents or sharp objects (this can scratch the
surface of the appliance).
