Important Safety Instructions

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING HUMIDIFIER, ESPECIALLY THESE BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.

1. Always place the humidifier on a firm, flat, level surface, at least FIVE inches away from walls and heat sources such as stoves, radiators, or heaters. Humidifiers may not work properly on a non-level surface.
2. Place a humidifier in an area that is out of the reach of children.
3. Before using the humidifier, extend the cord and inspect for any signs of damage. Do not use the product if the cord has been damaged.
4. Humidifiers should always be unplugged and emptied when not in operation or while being cleaned.
5. Never tilt or move the humidifier while it is in operation. Shut off and unplug before moving.
6. The humidifier requires regular cleaning. Read and follow Care and Cleaning instructions.
7. In certain areas, tap water is extremely hard, containing a higher-than-normal concentration of various minerals. These minerals can be emitted into the air, possibly causing adverse reactions in people with breathing difficulties. In such cases, use only distilled or demineralized water and clean the humidifier every day. (See Care and Cleaning instructions).
8. If you have breathing difficulties, consult your physician before using any humidification product.
9. In hard-water areas, white dust may form on furniture. This can easily be wiped away with a cloth. To avoid the white dust, use distilled water.

Troubleshooting

IF THE UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE:

• Check that the polarized plug is fully inserted into a wall outlet.
• Check airflow. Are there any obstructions preventing airflow?
• The motor contains a temperature-limiting fuse. If the motor overheats, the fuse will trip and shut off the motor. Unplug the unit and contact our Consumer Service Department. Do not attempt to repair the motor yourself.

IF YOU DO NOT OBTAIN ENOUGH HUMIDITY:

• Because of break-in characteristics, maximum output will not be reached until the unit has been used several times. If the air in the room is extremely dry, there will be greater absorption of the vapor and faster depletion of the water reservoir. As the humidity increases, output will decrease, and adding water will be required less frequently. This variation is normal.
• Under certain conditions, the moisture output may not be visible. It is operating properly, however, if the water level goes down during usage, even when you cannot see the vapor.
• The DynaFilter cartridge may be clogged with pollutants and should be replaced.

IF YOU ARE OBTAINING TOO MUCH HUMIDITY AND WATERFALLS OUT AROUND THE UNIT:

• Room air may be excessively humid (greater than 50% relative humidity); do not use a humidifier. Oversaturated air can cause condensation on cold walls or furniture. For proper humidity readings, use a hygrometer available in most hardware and department stores.
• The humidifier may need cleaning. Follow Care and Cleaning instructions.
• Medication or other additives may have been added to the water. Follow Care and Cleaning Instructions.

How Your Humidifier Works

MODEL 4100

• The Kaz HealthMist® 4100, 4200, and 4220 models produce a cool mist through revolutionary new cyclone technology. The motor-driven impeller draws up water through a pickup tube. Centrifugal force throws the water through a screen into the vortex chamber, breaking up the water into a superfine, cool mist.
• Each of these cool mist humidifiers restores healthy humidity levels to dry indoor air more effi-ciently than other impeller-type humidifiers.

THE AIR-CLEANING DynaFilter

• Kaz cool mist humidifiers include the exclusive Kaz DynaFilter K14. The DynaFilter removes dust, pollen, odors, and tobacco smoke from the air, removing 93% of particles as small as pollen.
• Under normal environmental conditions, the filter cartridge should be replaced every two months. Replacement time will vary depending on the concentration of pollutants in the air. If you notice heavy dirt accumulation on the filter or if the humidifier output is significantly reduced, it’s time to change to a new DynaFilter!
• Kaz DynaFilter K14 cartridges are available at leading pharmacies and drug departments. You may also order directly from Kaz (see Order Information on the back page).

Care and Cleaning

Tap water may contain pollutants and minerals (scale) that can be deposited on the inner surfaces of the humidifier. Such scale can accelerate the growth of microorganisms and it is important that periodic cleaning is performed as outlined below. More frequent cleaning may be necessary if you notice a heavy build-up of scale.

INSPECT THE DNA FILTER
Remove and inspect the DynaFilter cartridge for dirt and dust accumulation. If you notice heavy accumulation, the filter needs to be replaced. If the filter is not changed regularly will clog the filter, impair air flow, reduce the efficiency of the humidifier, and may damage the motor.
