Hard Water and White Dust

High mineral content in your water, also known as hard water, may cause a white mineral residue to accumulate on surfaces in the room near the humidifier. This mineral residue is commonly referred to as white dust. The higher the mineral content (hardness) of your water, the greater the potential that an ultrasonic humidifier may produce 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

CLEANING YOUR HUMIDIFIER

To keep your humidifier running efficiently, clean it regularly. Weekly cleaning is recommended. All maintenance should be done in the kitchen or bathroom on a water resistant surface near a faucet.

In some areas, water quality is harder and richer in calcium and magnesium. After using the humidifier over time, calcium and magnesium ions will be deposited on the evaporating filter core, causing it to become scaly. This decreases humidifying efficiency. In addition, the active carbon filter attached at the air inlet will accumulate a large quantity of dust over time, which also decreases humidifying efficiency.

The cleaning and maintenance method for the humidifier is listed below:

1. Clean atomizer, water tank and water channel every week.
2. Replace water in water tank frequently.
3. If you don't plan to use the humidifier for a long time, please remove the power adapter, clean and dry all components, and then store the product in a cool place.

Cleaning method for atomizer:

1. Inject 0.34 fl. oz. (10 ml) acetum on the surface of the atomizer (add or reduce acetum according to the severity of scaling) and immerse the atomizer for 2-5 mins.
2. Gently scrub the surface of the atomizer with the cleaning brush until the scale is removed.
3. Wash the surface of the atomizer with a wet towel.

Cleaning method for water tank:

1. Remove all excess water from both the humidifier tank and the base.
2. Remove the mist outlet cover; at the bottom side push on the fastener to separate the cap. You can now clean it properly.
3. Disconnect the filter in the water tank by pressing the two tabs on the filter and pulling up on it.
4. Lift up the water tank and remove the water cover subassembly by turning it counterclockwise (figure 3).
5. Wipe disassembled components with a warm wet towel. To prevent damage to the humidifier, never rinse the humidifier base directly under water. After cleaning, reassemble the components in reverse order. Be sure that the water cover subassembly is installed in its correct position.
6. Add a small amount of vinegar of 5-10 drops of cleaning solution into the water tank. Then fill 1/4 of the water tank with water. Leave it for 5-10 min and then use a brush to clean the water tank.

Cleaning method for water channel:

1. To clean the float plate, remove the plate by sliding it toward the back of the humidifier base. Reinstall it once it is cleaned.
2. If the water channel has any water deposits, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with water.

Cleaning the fragrance box:

1. Clean the fragrance box with water and then leave it to dry.
2. Put the dry fragrance sponge back into the box then replace it with a fragrance box.

End of Season Cleaning and Storage

Follow the cleaning instructions when the humidifier will not be used for at least one week, or at the end of the season. At the end of the season, remove any accessories and discard. Allow the humidifier and all components to dry completely before storing.

DO NOT store humidifier with water inside the Reservoir or Water Tank. Pack unit safely and store in cool, dry location.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The humidifier does not operate.

• The power adapter is not well inserted.
  • Insert the power adapter in place.
• Low water level in the water channel.
  • Fill the water tank with water.
• The water tank is not installed correctly.
  • Install the water tank correctly.

There is a strange smell in the air.

• Water is dirty or hasn't been changed for a long time.
  • Clean the water tank and water channel. Use clean water for humidification.

Mist output is weak.

• The carbon filter at the air inlet is blocked by dust.
  • Clean the carbon filter at the air inlet.

There is an abnormal sound.

• The device is not placed on a flat surface.
  • Put it on a flat and solid place or on the floor and keep it stable.

There is water around the humidifier.

• The humidifier is used in a place that is not well ventilated or with high humidity. The mist does not evaporate and turns into water around the humidifier.
  • Turn down the humidification output (especially at night in sleep). Or you may use an air conditioner or a fan to speed up the air ventilation and improve the humidifying effect.

There is water in the water tank but the humidifier will not work.

• The humidifier is tilted, resulting in low water level in the water channel. The device has switched itself off due to low water level protection.
  • Place the humidifier on a flat and solid place and keep it stable.

Water overflows from the water channel or the water level is too high, resulting in small humidification output and dripping noise.

• The float plate, sealing part and water cover subassembly are not fixed in place; the water cover subassembly is blocked.
  • Fix the float plate, sealing part and water cover subassembly in place; remove the blockage
