To properly clean your humidifier we recommend the separate processes of Scale Removal and
Disinfecting shown below. These two processes must be performed separately.
All maintenance should be done in the kitchen or bathroom on a water resistant surface near
a faucet. DO NOT wash any components of this humidifier in the dishwasher.
Instructions for Scale Removal
1.
Turn off and unplug the humidifier.
2. Remove Water Tank from Base. Remove Tank Cap, taking care that the rubber Cap Seal does
not come off. Empty water from Water Tank and Base.
3. If Antimicrobial Cleaning Product is installed, remove Antimicrobial Cleaning Product and
set aside. DO NOT clean Antimicrobial Cleaning Product. This will damage the Antimicrobial
Cleaning Product.
4. Add 2 cups of undiluted distilled white vinegar to Water Tank. Replace Tank Cap and swish
vinegar solution around in Tank. Place Tank on Base. Vinegar solution will drain into Water
Reservoir and loosen mineral buildup (scale) on Nebulizer and Float as they soak in the
solution. It will also loosen scale on bottom of Water Tank.
5. Soak for 15-20 minutes.
6. After soaking, unlock Tank Cap and pour solution out in sink. Pour solution from
Water Reservoir out in sink. Wipe Nebulizer and Float with soft cloth to remove loosened
mineral deposits.
7. Rinse Water Reservoir and Water Tank until smell of vinegar (for Scale Removal process)
or bleach solution (for Disinfecting process) is gone. Make sure water does not enter the
fan opening (vented opening on right side of Reservoir) or Power Knob.
CAUTION: DO NOT SUBMERGE BASE IN WATER. DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE HU-
MIDIFIER AND VOID THE WARRANTY.

Weekly Cleaning
The higher the mineral content or hardness of your water, the greater the potential that you may
have white dust.
“White dust” is not a result of a defect or flaw in the humidifier. It is a result of the amount of
minerals suspended in the water you are using.
If you live in a hard water area the use of distilled water will minimize the production of white dust.
