AOS2055 Humidifier
How it works
Your appliance
- washes and humidifies the ai without using filter mats
- works quietly in two operation modes
- is manufactured from high-quality, long-life components.
- has a large cleansing capacity through pre- ionization. The individual dust particles are ionized (charged) and stick to the humidifier discs.
Special humidifying discs rotate in a water bath inside the unit; this
cleanses the air passing over them of impurities in a natural way — in the
same way that air is washed by the rain in nature.
The air humidification takes place according to the self- regulating principle
of cold evaporation. The appliance therefore generatas ideal air humidity,
without the need for additional control units.
A specially tuned anti-bacterial protection system (lonic Sit ver Stick®)
prevents the formation of germs in the water of the base unit. No chemical
additives are therefore required to keep the water clean.
Unpacking
- Remove the appliance carefully from the packaging (10 — 12). The top section is only placed on the base; it is NOT attached.
- Remove the plastic bag from the unit (13).
- Check the details of the electrical supply on the rating plate (14).
- Use the original packaging to store the appliance if you do not use it throughout the year.
Description of the appliance
Putting into operation
The best location for your appliance is:
- On the floor, or on a level, dry surface in the room.
- Pay proper attention to easy accessibility and sufficient space for servicing and cleaning the unit.
- For increased evaporation performance in large rooms, place the appliance near a radiator (warning: a temperature of 122 °F / 50 °C must not be exceeded).
- Read the section “Filling the tank” on how to fill the water tank (20- 24).
- Place the water tank on the lower part (24).
- Connect the mains cable to the mains and switch the appliance on using the On/Off switch.
- The unit will reach full capacity about 10 — 15 minutes after you switch it on.
- Ensure that the mains cable is not trapped (9). Do not switch on the unit if the mains cable is defective (2).
Filling the tank
Always unplug the unit before removing the water tank. Do not operate the
appliance when the water tank is empty!
Only fill the water tank with fresh, cold tap water. Use other solution at
your own risk. We do no accept any liability for possible reductions in
performance or damage.
Do not put the water tank under pressure, e.g. by filling with carbonated
mineral water. Do not add any essential oils or fragrances to the water; the
plastic material might then become discoloured and damaged. Close bayonet cap
(23) fully to prevent water from leaking out of the tank.
-
Remove the water tank (20).
-
Ensure that there are no foreign objects in the water tank.
-
Remove the water tank cap from the tank (21). Fill the tank with fresh, cold tap water (22). Fully close the bayonet seal to prevent the water tank from leaking (23). Place the water tank on the water base (24).
-
Connect the mains cable to the outlet and switch the appliance on.
The 2055D (digital) unit is fitted with an automatic cut off switch. As soon as the water tank is empty, the unit switches off automatically. The empty indicator illuminates (also see saction “Operation 2055D”). This function is not available on the 2055 unit.
Use of fragrances
The base contains a special fragrance container (25). Wadding soaked with
fragrance can be placed in this container.
Place fragrances only in the container provided! Water additves (e.g.
essential oils, fragrances, water conditioners) must NOT be used in the tank
or anywhere else in the appiance! Even a small amount can damage the plastic
or cause cracks. The material is not suitable for the use of additives. One
drop is enough to damage the water tank and therefore render the unit
unusable. Appliances that are damaged by additives are excluded from the
warranty. The fragrance container is also used as a tool for opening the
rotary locks of the humidifying discs. To leam more about removing the discs,
refer to section ,,Cleaning the humidifying discs”.
Water quality maintenance
An lonic Silver Stick® (26) keeps the water free of harmfut bacteria. The anti-microbial action of silver is used. The lonic Silver Stick releases silver ions in the water over a long period (approx. one year). It’s self- regulating and maintenance-free. Look at picture 26 for the position of the ISS in the base part of the unit. Switch off the unit first. Contact your local retailer or check our website www.air-o-swiss.com for reorder information.
Lifecycle indicator
Your appliance comes with a standard lifecycle indicator on the back of the upper part for changing the lonic Silver Stick®. To remind yourself of when you put the ISS into operation, please cross the current month on the indicator and write the current year on the line provided.

and is especially quiet.
E) Operating light
The green light (LED) (F) illuminates when the applian: is switched on.
automaticaly changes to show the current value (CUR-RENT) (E). Upon reaching
the desired relative humidity, the unit automatically switches off (display
shows DESIRED and CURRENT) (E). If the desired relative humidity falls, the
appliance automatically switches on again.
Quick display of current relative humidity
When the unit is switched off (mains cable is connected, rotary switch to OFF
setting), the current relative humidity can be shown in the display by briefly
pressing one of the B buttons. This display automatically disappears after a
few seconds.
C) Change lonic Silver Stick®
The letter C in the display indicates that the lonic Silver Stick® (ISS) must
be changed. The symbol remains visible until both B buttons are pressed and
held down for approx. 5 seconds.

The letter D in the display indicates that the appliance must be cleaned. The
letter remains visible until both B buttons are pressed and held down for
approx. 5 seconds.
E) Current/Desired Display
If DESIRED appears on the display, the value in % next to it signifies the
desired relative humidity, i.e. the desired value is shown. If the display
shows CURRENT, then the current relative humidity is shown.
F) Automatic switch-off
“Tank empty”
The water level is easy to see thanks to the transparent water tank. The
display on the appliance also shows when the unit should be refilled with
water. If the water level falls below the minimum quantity, the appliance
automatically switches off. A red blinking symbol (F) appears on the display.
When water is added, symbol F disappears and the appliance continues
operating.
Warning: When lifting the upper part off the base, the appliance also
switches off. In this case, the red blinking F symbol will also appear on the
display. Only when the upper part is replaced on the base does symbol F
disappear and the appliance continues operating.
Cleaning the water tank and base (every 2 weeks)
-
Lift the water tank out of the unit, open the water tank cap and clean the tank (35 — 37).
-
Lift the upper part of the unit off the base and remove the lonic Silver Stick® (38).
-
Fill the base with water, for best results use EZCal custom cleaning agent for AIR-O-SWISS products;
Rotate the disk assembly a few times by hand (39). -
Empty the water base (40), remove the disc assembly (41) and rinse (42).
-
Remove deposits from the base using a plastic or wooden brush and a diluted, commercial washing-up detergent (43).
Cleaning the humidifying discs (every 4 weeks)
A thin film of lime scale on the discs actually increases the humidity output!
To clean, unscrew the individual humidifying discs from each other. Rotary
locks (toothed wheels) can be easily removed using the multifunctional
fragrance container (44).
Next, the discs can be washed individually (45-46). For best results use EZCa!
custom cleaning agent for AIR-0-SWISS products.
- The toothed wheel can only be assembled in one position.
After cleaning, reassemble the appliance in the reverse sequence. Note: rotary locks have two rest positions. Warning: Do not overtightan!
Storing the appliance for extended periods
Clean the appliance as described earlier and allow to dry thoroughly.
Preferably store the appliance in its original box, in a dry place away from
high temperatures.

Q. Why do I need a humidifier when I can just open my window?
A. The moisture level within the outside air is not high enough to humidify a
room.
Q. Where should I place my humidifier?
A. The unit should be free-standing and not close to a wall, window, door, or
thermal bridge so that air may circulate around the unit.
2055 FAQ’s
Q. I fill the water tank, and when | place it back on the unit all of the water goes into the base. Why is that?
A. Water ts needed in the base of the unit for the removal of particles from the air, and for the humidification of the air. The first time the tank is filled up and placed on the unit, ail of the water will go into the base of the unit. The water tank acts as a reserve, and may be filled up a second time to have extra water available
Q. If my unit runs dry is that ok?
A. If there is a possibility that you will be unable to add water to the unit and it will run dry, turn the unit off before you leave. The unit will not be able to remove particles from the air if there is no water, and you may Notice a foul odor. Except of the 2055 Digital that uses the automatic switch-off.
Q. Can this unit be used all year round?
A. Yes, the unit can be used all year round. The unit pro- duces relative humidity which means that the air will only take as much moisture as it can hold. The unit will not over-humidify the air.
Q. If there is no water left in my water tank, for how many hours will the water in base last?
A. An exact answer cannot be given for this as there are mary factors that depend on how long the water will last for. It all depends on the size of the room, if it is very dry, among other things to know how quickly wa- ter will evaporate into the air. If you notice that there is no water left in the water tank, it is always a good idea to refill the tank to have extra water available.
Q. Is it ok to put my humidifying plates in the dishwasher?
A. The manufacturer of this appliance does NOT recom- mend it. The plates can only be placed in a dishwasher where the temperature is no greater than 131°F / 55°C
