The first farm

As the inner units come into contact with water for the first time, there may be a slight odour at the beginning. This initial smell disappears after a very short time (1-2 days).

Use only clear and clean (or distilled) water below 40°C to fill the humidifier, and do not add any flavourings etc. to the water.

Functional description

The WDH-SK6630 ultrasonic humidifier uses ultrasonic high-frequency oscillation to atomise the water into the smallest water vapour particles of approx. 1-5 µm (thousandths of a millimetre) !!! A fan system then ensures that this ultra-fine water vapour is evenly released into the room air until it has reached the desired humidity.

Important safety instructions

Only use the recommended voltage for operating the humidifier !
Supervise the humidifier when children are near the appliance !
Watch out for electricity, never walk into or insert objects into the appliance !

Instructions for use

Before use

Carefully remove the humidifier from its packaging box and remove all protective packaging. Place the humidifier on a firm, level surface that provides sufficient space for the unit and the user. Give the humidifier about half an hour (to adjust to the room climate) before operating it for the first time.

Commissioning

Open the lid of your humidifier and fill the water tank with clean, clear water.

Notes:

Always use only water with a temperature below 40°C !
Always use boiled and then cooled water. Distilled water is also excellent for preventing calcification of your appliance. avoid !
Only fill the water tank to the maximum quantity indicated and do not pour the water directly into the steam shaft, this may cause the unit to stop operating automatically. (see fig. below).
Wait briefly for a minute so that the water can distribute well in the lower part of the humidifier.

Insert the mains plug of the unit into a socket and switch on the unit by pressing the operating switch. Now set the desired humidification output using the operating switch.
In addition, you can activate the built-in LED lighting with the help of the LED button.
If desired, the aroma compartment can be used to distribute pleasant fragrances in the room. To do this, remove the aroma compartment, which is located on the back of the unit, and drip a few drops of your desired aroma onto the cotton pad (see illustration below). Then push the aroma compartment back into the unit and start the
humidification mode.
Note: We recommend that you always use only 100% essential oil !

Cleaning & Storage

Preparation for cleaning

Please switch off the appliance first and disconnect the mains plug before cleaning the humidifier.
Remove the lid of the humidifier and empty the unit completely of any residual water. To do this, please use the small opening at the upper edge of the water tank (see fig. right).

Note: It is best to place the appliance in a sink to empty it.

Cleaning the housing and the wet area

Only use mild cleaning agents to clean your humidifier.
Rinse the water tank carefully and wipe it from the outside with a damp cloth.
Now carefully clean the round black ultrasonic water steam unit in the lower part of your machine. To do this, first remove the steam shaft by turning it slightly to the left to release it from the water tank (see fig. right).

Notes: In the case of hard water (the tap water contains too much calcium and magnesium), limescale deposits can occur in the humidifier and especially in the area of the evaporator and the water vapour unit and these can lead to impairment of the functioning. We therefore recommend that you

Clean the evaporator and the ultrasonic water vapour unit every week.
Change the water in the water tank regularly to keep it fresh.

The ultrasonic evaporator is located at the bottom of the water tank (in the lower part of the humidifier). You can see it very well by removing the steam shaft. The
evaporator itself is round, has a diameter of approx. 4 cm and is made of dark ceramic.

Clean the evaporator as follows:

a.) Add 5-10 drops of a suitable cleaning agent (e.g. Dimanin A available at any pharmacy) to the surface of the vaporiser or also to the rest of the lower area ofthe water tank and wait a few minutes.
b.) Then carefully wipe off any flakes of dirt (limescale) from the surfaces with a soft sponge or the enclosed brush.
Note: Never clean the vaporiser with objects made of metal or blunt material! This would damage the vaporiser.
c.) Finally, rinse the vaporiser / water cup well with clear water and refit the steam shaft.

Storage

Remove all water, clean the unit thoroughly and dry it well if you are not going to use the humidifier for a long time. (Allow the appliance to dry out completely and please remove all water residues).
We recommend that you store the dried out and cleaned unit in the original box when not in use.

Humidifier for a better climate and for the benefit of health

Especially during the heating season, the relative humidity often falls below the recommended range for living and working spaces. This has an unfavourable effect on the well-being and health of people and animals and can also promote diseases of the respiratory system if the indoor air is permanently very dry. A too dry climate can also be harmful for inventory and plants. This effect can be counteracted with our humidifier. In the field of human medicine, a balanced humidity of the ambient air is recommended. However, especially in closed, poorly ventilated and well-heated rooms, such values are often fallen short of, which can lead to reduced respiratory performance and impairment of the skin or mucous membranes.

This is particularly the case in winter, as the cold outside air then only has a low absolute humidity. Therefore, after heating to room temperature, it should be humidified by a humidifier to prevent the relative humidity from dropping too much.
In very cold regions or at cold times of the year or at night, the human organism often shows an increased fluid consumption, although the opposite should rather be assumed due to the lack of fluid loss through sweating. This is due to the humidification of the dry inhaled air and the associated loss of water. If the cold outside air is heated during inhalation, its water vapour capacity increases and thus also lowers the relative humidity. In contrast, the saturation deficit increases and the tendency of the liquid lung tissue water to change into the gaseous aggregate state increases. In summer or when the ambient air is warm, the inhaled air is hardly warmed up any further and therefore retains its usually high relative humidity. If the additional water losses through sweating are not too great here, the body’s water requirement is therefore higher in cold ambient conditions. Increased humidity is beneficial for breathing, as oxygen then reaches the bloodstream more easily via the alveoli. The skin needs a high level of humidity in order not to dry out, as this is closely linked to skin moisture. Mucous membranes are particularly susceptible to drying out, as they have little protection against evaporation and depend on their high humidity to maintain their functions. Thus, low humidity of the nasal mucosa can result in an increased incidence of nosebleeds. In general, the skin’s immune defence is weakened (increased risk of catching a cold) and its ability to exchange substances is reduced, which particularly affects the oral mucosa. Low humidity also increases the susceptibility to skin irritations or redness or even skin inflammations.
