OPERATIONS AND FUNCTIONS
Add water
- Turn the water tank upside down. Remove the tank cap and fill the tank with clean and cool water only.
- Attach the tank cap and place the tank back onto the base. Please make sure it fits together securely so that water can go from the tank to the reservoir.
- If tap water is too hard, it is recommended to use filtered or distilled water to avoid white dust. DO NOT use hot water.
- DO NOT add any essential oils or medicinal tablets into the water tank.
- DO NOT add water into the base or through nozzle.
- DO NOT move the humidifier while the water tank is full of water to avoid leakage or base overfilling.
Power On / Off and Mist Adjustment
Plug the power cord into a wall socket. Now the humidifier is ready for
use.
- Rotate the control knob clockwise to the ON position. The white LED indicator will light up indicating the humidifier has been turned on to a minimum mist level.
- Keep rotating the control knob clockwise to increase the mist level.
- Rotate the control knob counterclockwise to the OFF position to turn off the humidifier. The LED indicator will turn off. The fan will work for another 3 minutes to dry the mist tube.
