RELATIVE HUMIDITY

The percentage of water mist in a given space with a given air temperature is named as relative humidity, usually marked as %RH, i.e. 45%RH. The air contains water mist more or less. The proportion of water mist to the air varies according to different air temperatures. The higher the temperature, the more water mist inhaled in the air.

In the winter, the cold air outside enters the room and becomes warmer by the higher temperature in the room. As a result, the relative humidity decreases. If you want to keep the healthy environmental humidity, we need to increase the mist volume in the air. The humidifier can do that for us. Relative humidity in different environments suitable for people:

• Bedroom, living room: 45-65%RH
• Patient’s room: 40-55%RH
• Room with computer, experiment equipment: 45-60%RH
• Room with piano: 40-60%RH
• Museum, exhibition hall, and library: 40-60%RH

FILLING THE AROMA BOX

• Press the aroma box to release it.
• Use a pipette to apply water-soluble aroma oil to the sponge.
• Put the aroma box back into the humidifier.
• To stop the aroma function, clean the sponge in the aroma box. The same applies if you store the appliance for a longer period of time.

Note: Apply the aroma oil only to the sponge in the aroma box. Do not pour any liquid other than clean water into the water tank or basin.

Troubleshooting connection problems

If your Klarstein device cannot be found in the WLAN, check the following:

• Is the device plugged in?

• Is the WiFi feature of my phone enabled?

• Is the WiFi function of the Klarstein device activated? (Follow the instructions in the app)

• Has the WLAN password been entered correctly?

• Are the router, Klarstein device and smartphone in the immediate vicinity during the connection attempt? (Ideally no more than 5 m apart)

• If you have deactivated the 2.4 GHz band in the settings of your wireless router, activate it in your router settings.
  Note: For further help, follow the instructions in the app when setting up the connection.Cleaning and Care.
  Note: Always switch off and unplug the unit before cleaning.

• Use cold boiled water or distilled water.

• Clean the transducer, water tank and basin unit every week.

• Change the water in water tank more often to keep it fresh.

• Make sure to pull out the water from the water tank and dry the water basin before you store the unit unused for a long period of time.

• Clean the whole unit and make sure that all parts of the unit are dried completely before unused for longer period of time.

How to clean the transducer:

• Put 5-10 drops of cleaning abluent on the surface of the transducer, wait for 2-5 minutes.
• Brush off the scale from the surface.
• Rinse the transducer with clean water.
• Never use sharp or solid objects for cleaning the transducer.

How to clean the Basin unit:

• Clean the water basin with soft cloth .if there is excess film on the surfaces, then soak the cloth with vinegar and repeat the process.
• If there is a film in any of the depressions along the basin ,drop a bit of vinegar into depression and clean it out with a brush.
• Rinse the water basin with clean water.

How to clean the Ceramic Filter System:

• Clean and activate the ceramic balls after use of 1000 L water regularly.
• Remove the filter from the tank cover.
• Put some white vinegar into a glass, soak the filter in the vinegar for about 10 minutes.
• Remove the filter from the glass and shake it several times.
• Clean and rinse the filter once again with fresh water.

If you don’t plan to use the humidifier for a long time, remove the filter from the water tank and let it dry thoroughly, then wrap it in protective packaging and keep it next to the humidifier in a cool, dry and dark storage space.

The following is not considered faulty operation:

• If your water is very hard (containing abnormally high levels of minerals) the humidifier may produce white dust. This is not a malfunction. The solution would be to clean the filter more often or use softer water.
• If you stand very close to the humidifier, you will hear the gurgling sound of water, this is normal.
• The machine operate very quietly but it is not completely silent. Noise levels less than 35 dB is considered normal.
