Owner`s manual

• ALWAYS be sure to dis-
card any unused water in
the base each time you
refill the water tank or fin-
ish using the humidifier.
We recommend that
you clean the humidifier
once a week, or more
often if you:
• have hard water,
• notice a build-up of
impurities, or
• detect unpleasant odors.
Using DuraSept™
Humidifier Bacteriostatic
Treatment (#AC-802) will
help control the growth of
bacteria, algae, and
odors and help extend
the life of the Natural
Moisture
®
Filters.
NOTE: THE USE OF OTHER
WATER TREATMENT PROD-
UCTS MAY CAUSE DETERI-
ORATION OF THE FILTER
OR DAMAGE THE HUMIDI-
FIER; THEREBY, HINDER-
ING THE HUMIDIFIER'S
EFFECTIVENESS.
DO NOT USE SOAP,
DETERGENTS, OR
ABRASIVE CLEANSERS.
Cleaning involves two
steps: SCALE REMOVAL
and DISINFECTING.
Be sure to perform
these in the proper
order to avoid harmful
chemical interactions.
• First, turn off and
unplug the humidifier.
• Remove the water tank
by grasping the handle
and pulling straight up.
Set aside.
• Lift out the three
Natural Moisture
®
filters.
Open the frames by push-
ing down on the two tabs
at one end of the frame
only. (Figure 4)
Remove the filters from
their frames and set aside.
• Replace the empty
Natural Moisture
®
filter
frames in the base.
Step One: WEEKLY
SCALE REMOVAL
(Water Tank, Reservoir
Base, and Filter Frames)
• Fill the reservoir base
with DuraRinse™
Humidifier Cleaner (#AC-
816), following bottle
instructions, or one 8-oz
(250 ml) cup of undiluted
white vinegar. Let solution
stay for 20 minutes.
• Use a sponge or soft
brush to loosen any scale
residue in the reservoir
base and on the Natural
Moisture
®
filter frames.
• Rinse thoroughly with
warm, clean water to
remove scale and
cleaning solution.
• Be sure the
water tank
is empty. Fill with water
and DuraRinse
®
, following
bottle instructions, or one
8-oz.
(250 ml) cup of undi-
luted white vinegar.
• Replace the fill cap
and shake vigorously.
• Empty the water tank
and rinse thoroughly with
warm clean water.
Step Two: WEEKLY
DISINFECTING
(Water Tank and
Reservoir Base)
• Fill the water tank with
1 teaspoon of chlorine
bleach in 1 gallon
(4 litres)
water. Let the solution
stand for 20 minutes,
swishing every few minutes
to wet all inner surfaces.
