How To Use
CAUTION: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). To reduce the risk of shock, this plug is intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature. To do so could result in an electric shock hazard.

How To Use

Power/Mist Knob
Plug unit into a 120 volt AC electrical outlet. Turn the POWER/MIST ( ) knob clockwise to
turn the humidifier on.

ATTENTION: When the water in the tank is almost empty, the humidifying function will power off
to indicate to the user to refill the tank.

Mist Adjustment Setting
Mist adjusts from MINIMUM ( ) mist to MAXIMUM ( ) mist. To increase the mist output,
turn the POWER/MIST knob clockwise. To decrease mist output, turn the POWER/MIST knob
counter-clockwise.

Night Light
Press the NIGHT LIGHT ( ) button to turn on the night light. The surround around the
POWER/MIST knob will glow softly.

How to Fill
CAUTION: Before filling unit with water, turn power off and unplug unit from the outlet.
Note: Always use two hands to carry the water tank.

Grasp tank handle and lift up from humidifier base.
Turn the tank upside down—remove the tank cap by turning it counter-clockwise.
Fill the water tank with clean, cool (not cold) water. We recommend using distilled water if you live in a hard water area.
Replace the tank cap by turning clockwise until tight.
Install the tank back on the base of the unit. Make sure the tank is firmly seated.

About White Dust:
Use of high mineral content hard water may cause a white mineral residue to accumulate on surfaces in the room near the humidifier. The mineral residue is commonly called “white dust.”
The higher the mineral content (or, the harder your water is), the greater the potential for white dust. The white dust is not caused by a defect in the humidifier. It is caused only by minerals
suspended in the water.

How and Why To Use Demineralization Cartridges:
The HoMedics demineralization cartridge will help reduce the potential for white dust, a deposit of minerals left behind from using hard water in your humidifier. The cartridge should be replaced every 30 – 40 fillings. The cartridge may need to be replaced more often if you are using very hard water. Replace the cartridge when you notice an increase in white dust build-up. If white dust still forms around the humidifier after a new cartridge has been installed, consider using distilled water. To purchase new demineralization cartridges, model # HUM-HDDC4-6CTM, go
back to the retailer (where you purchased your humidifier), or visit www.homedics.com

If you live in an area with hard water, or use a water softener, we recommend usingdistilled water for better results from your humidifier. Never use water softening additives in your humidifier.

Installing Instructions

Remove demineralization cartridge from packaging and let it soak in water for 10 minutes.
Remove the tank from humidifier base. (Fig. 3)
Place the soaked demineralization cartridge into the matching slot in the humidifier base . (Fig. 9)
Place the tank back on the base, making sure the tank is firmly seated. (Fig. 7)

Note: Demineralization cartridge has no top or bottom. Either side can
face upward.

Cleaning and Care

CAUTION : Before cleaning the unit, turn power off and unplug unit from the outlet.

Tank Cleaning
Remove the water tank from the humidifier base by lifting it from the main unit. Unscrew the tank cap and rinse inside the tank with clean water. To remove any scale or build up, use a 50/50 mixture of vinegar and lukewarm water to clean the inside of the tank.
Suggestion: Clean the water tank once every two to three weeks, depending on your water conditions.

To Clean the Ultrasonic Membrane:
Put a small amount of mild dish soap on the surface of the ultrasonic membrane, then pour in some water and soak for 5 minutes. Brush clean with soft bristle brush (not included) and rinse. (Fig. 11)
Suggestion: Clean the membrane once every two to three weeks, depending on your water conditions.

NOTE: Never submerge the base in water or any liquid.
Surface Cleaning Clean the surface of the unit with a clean damp soft cloth as often as needed. (Fig. 12)
