Product Usage Instructions

How Your Product Works
Your humidifier works on the natural principle of evaporation. A fan passes the dry indoor air through the humidifier filters, which are soaked with water. The air thereby only absorbs as much moisture as it needs at the current temperature.

Setting Up / Operation

Place Oskar little on a flat surface in the desired area.
Use the filling open-mode.

Important Information: With an evaporator, humidification can take a bit longer than it does when using a nebulizer or vaporizer. So Oskar little takes a while to achieve a measurable humidification result. If you operate the humidifier in a very dry environment, we recommend operating it at speed level 2 to reach a maximum amount of humidity in a short time.

FAQ

Q: How do I clean my Oskar little humidifier?
A: To clean your Oskar little humidifier, follow these steps:

1. Unplug the humidifier and empty the water tank
2. Dismantle the unit as per the user manual instructions.
3. Clean all parts with a mild detergent and water solution.
4. Rinse thoroughly and let all parts dry completely before reassembling.

Q: How often should I change the filters?
A: It is recommended to change the filters every 2-3 months, depending on usage and water quality. If you notice a decrease in performance or any odors, it may be time to replace the filters.

Setting up / operation

lace Oskar little on a flat surface in the desired area. Use the filling opening (9) to fill the lower part (2) with water up to the maximum mark (12), either at a water tap or with a watering can. When you have filled the lower part at the tap, carefully fit the upper part (1) to the lower part (2). Plug the mains cable (3) into a electric socket.
Start the appliance by pressing the on/off switch (5). The blue LED should then light up. If a red pilot lamp (8 and 12) lights up however, this indicates either lack of water in the appliance or failure to seat the upper part correctly on the lower part.
By pressing the speed level selector button (6) you can change the humidity output (a blue lamp for normal evaporation, two blue lamps for high evaporation).
If you find the lamps too bright (in a bedroom for example), you may reduce the light intensity by pressing the night mode key (7). You can choose between three different modes:
- Normal mode (default mode)
- Dimmed mode (push once)
- Lights-out mode (push twice)
- By pushing the dimmer button once more, you can go back into normal mode.
- If there is no water in the appliance, the red LEDs (8 and 12) light up in all modes (normal and night mode). The red light can not be dimmed.
You can use the Oskar little air humidifier to distribute fragrances in the room. Please be as economical as possible in the use of fragrances, be-cause excessive quantities may lead to malfunctions and damage to the appliance. To use fragrances, remove the fragrance container (10) from the filling opening (9). Place no more than 2–3 drops of fragrance in the container and replace it in the space provided in the filling opening. If you wish to change the fragrance, you can wash out the fragrance container and fleece under running water.
If you wish to top up with water during operation, you can open the filling opening (9) by pressing on it (Push to open). You can then refill the appliance using a water can or water bottle without having to switch it off. PLEASE NOTE: If you are operating the appliance with fragrances, remove the fragrance container before refilling to prevent water getting into it. Should this nevertheless occur, it will be necessary to remove the water container (2) and rinse it. Fragrances should not be permitted to enter the water tank, since they might destroy the plastic.

Important information
With an evaporator, humidification can take a bit longer than it does when using a nebulizer or vaporizer. So Oskar little takes a while to achieve a measurable humidification result. If you operate the humidifier in a very dry environment we recommend to operate it on speed level 2 to reach a maxi-mum amount of humidity in a short time.

Cleaning

Prior to any maintenance, cleaning and after each use, switch off the appliance and unplug the mains cable (3) from the socket.
Attention: Never submerge the appliance in water (danger of short-circuit). For hygienic reasons and to ensure proper operation, we recommend the following cleaning intervals.
Daily: Fill the appliance with fresh, cold tap water. If the appliance is not used for several days, empty the water from the lower part (2) beforehand and if necessary, clean it with a bit of dish detergent and a clean cloth. Fill fresh water into the lower part (2) before putting the appliance back into operation.
Every 2 weeks: First remove the filter (11) and the Water Cube™ (13). Clean the inside of the lower part (2) thoroughly every 2 weeks with a bit of dish detergent, warm water and a soft, clean cloth, sponge or brush. Then rinse the lower part (2) thoroughly with cold water and put the filter and the Water Cube back in.
Approx. every 4 weeks (depending on the hardness of the water): First remove the filter (11) and the Water Cube™ (13). In the case of limescale deposits on the inside of the lower part (2), we recommend using the Stadler Form Cleaner & Descaler (www.stadlerform.com/accessories). Alternatively, you can use a household decalcified or vinegar. Then rinse the lower part (2) thoroughly with cold water and put the filter and the Water Cube back in. For hygienic reasons, the filter (11) must be replaced every 2–3 months.
Regularly as required: For external cleaning, rub with a damp cloth and then dry thoroughly.
At the end of the season: Before storing the appliance at the end of the season, clean it inside and out thoroughly and let it dry completely. Descale the lower part (2) as described above. Clean the fan blades in the upper part with a damp cloth and then wipe them dry (see page 4). Insert new humidifier filter (11) and a new Water Cube (13) in order for your appliance to be ready for the start of the next season.

Replacement of the humidifier filter

For hygienic and optimum operation of the air humidifier, the filter must be replaced every 2 – 3 months. If the filter remain in use for longer than this, on the one hand the humidity output may decline severely and on the other, the antimicrobial action of the filter can no longer
be guaranteed. The humidifier filter can be obtained from the
dealer where you purchased your Oskar little.
Water Cube™ – optimal hygiene for your air humidifier
The Water Cube™ (13) by Stadler Form provides optimal hygiene in your air humidifier. It keeps your humidifier running smoothly, extending its lifespan. The Water Cube even works when your appliance is switched off, so the humidifier stays fresh all season long. We recommend replacing the Water Cube at the start of the humidifier season.

Repairs

Repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a qualified electrical technician. If improper repairs are carried out, the warranty lapses and all liability is refused.
Never operate the appliance if the adaptor or plug is damaged, after it has malfunctioned, if it has been dropped or has been damaged in any other way (cracks/breaks in the casing).
Do not push any object into the appliance.
If the appliance is beyond repair, make it unusable immediately by cutting through the cable and hand it in at the collection point provided for the purpose.
In the event of a repair, the following points must be observed before the appliance is shipped or taken to the dealer: completely empty the water in the appliance (water tray and any water tank), remove any filters and/or anti-limescale cartridges and allow the appliance to dry completely. Appliances containing residual water may be damaged during transport, invalidating the warranty.
Disposal
The European directive 2012 / 19 / CE on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimize the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of
the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning
the correct disposal of their old appliance.
