Filling instruction

Usage instructions

1. Put the appliance on a flat surface.

2. Remove the top cover, fill water into the water tank and then put back the top cover. Alternatively, take out the water tank for filling water, afterwards put the water tank back on the main base.

3. Check if the rated voltage meets the input voltage, and plug in the electric socket. The LED display will flash once and a beep sound will be heard. The appliance is in standby state.

4. Touch the button “ON/OFF” on the control panel to switch on the appliance. The appliance begins to work
   at the mist output level “2” by default. The indicator light in the bottom of the unit illuminates in blue. The LED display shows the current humidity and the mist output level alternately.

5. Touch the button “MAX/MIN” to adjust the mist output: 1 = low level of the mist output; 2 = medium level of the mist output; 3 = high level of the mist output.

6. Touch the button “TIMER” to set your desired working time from 01-12 hours. (Touch the button till the LED display shows “– –“. It means to cancel the timer setting.) The LED display will flash the set timer three times and then turn back to show the current humidity. The timer has been set. Once the timer is set, the LED display will show the current humidity, the mist output level and the timer and then repeat circularly. Note: You can also long touch the button “TIMER” for 2 seconds to cancel the timer function during working.

7. Touch the button “HUMIDITY” to set your expected humidity from 30%RH to 90%RH. Touch once; it will increase by 5%RH. (Touch the button till the LED display shows “Co”. It means to cancel the humidity setting.) The LED display will flash the expected humidity three times and then turn back to show the current humidity. The appliance enters into the constant humidity function.
   Under constant humidity function, the mist output level is nonadjustable. The appliance will adjust it automatically.
   • When the expected humidity is 16%RH higher than the current humidity, the appliance works in mist output level 3.
   • When the expected humidity is 10%RH – 15%RH higher than the current humidity, the appliance works in mist output level 2.
   • When the expected humidity is 1%RH – 9%RH higher than the current humidity, the appliance works in level 1.
   • When the expected humidity is less than the current humidity, the appliance will be in sleeping state. Once the expected humidity is set, the LED display will show the current humidity, the expected humidity (slow twinkle) and the timer (if set) and then repeat circularly.

Note: During working, long touch the button “HUMIDITY” for 2 seconds, the appliance enters into the night mode. The indicator light in the bottom of the unit will be off as well as the LED display. Long press again to exit the night mode.

Auto shut-off function
Once the water in the basin is too little to keep the humidifier working, the humidifier will automatically stop working. The indicator light in the bottom of the unit will turn red. Refill the water tank, and touch the on/off button again to restart. The red light will change to blue color.

MAINTENANCE

In case when the water is hard which means water contains too much calcium and magnesium, they can cause “white powder (limestone)” problem and may cause heavy sediments on the surface of the water basin, transducer and inner surface of the water tank. Sediments on the surface of the transducer could influence proper function.

We recommend:

1. Use cold boiled water or distilled water.
2. Clean the transducer, water tank and basin unit every week.
3. Change water in water tank frequently to avoid “white powder” / limestone.
4. Make sure to drain water out from the water tank and dry the water basin before storing the unit for a long period of time.
5. Clean the whole unit, and make sure that all parts of the unit are dried completely before use.

When there is leakage from the bottom of the tank, from the part where the spring is, please press and release the spring a couple of times to remove calcareous residue which can cause the leakage.

How to clean the filter system:

1. Clean the ceramic filter after using 1000L water regularly. Depend on the water quality, if the ceramic balls are dirty, the filter needs to be cleaned more frequently.
2. It can be dipped in vinegar about 5 minutes. Then rinse it with clean water.
3. Put the filter under the sun for 4~6 hours.
4. You can purchase replacement filters at www.buyspareparts.eu

How to clean the transducer:

1. Put 5-10 drops of decalcifying agent or citric acid on the surface of the transducer; wait for 2-5 minutes.
2. Brush out the surface and then rinse the transducer with water.

How to clean the water basin:

1. Clean the water basin with soft cloth and use a decalcifying agent or citric acid.
2. If the scale deposit is covered in any place of the water basin, drop the decalcifying agent or citric acid on the scale deposit and clean it out with a brush.
3. Rinse the water basin with water.
