Specifications

Controls and Operation

Control Panel: Power indicator light, Mist control dial (Off/Low/Medium/High), Night light button.

Operation: Turn dial to select mist output. The unit will run until the water tank is empty, then auto shut-off activates. The night light can be turned on/off independently of mist operation.

Settings: Low for quiet nighttime operation, Medium for general use, High for maximum humidity output. Adjust nozzle direction as needed. The water level indicator shows remaining water; refill when level is low.

Filling the Water Tank

Top-fill design allows easy refilling without removing the tank.

  1. Turn the control dial to OFF and unplug the unit.
  2. Open the top fill cap on the tank.
  3. Pour clean, cool water into the opening. Use a pitcher if needed.
  4. Do not overfill. The maximum fill line is indicated inside the tank.
  5. Close the fill cap securely.
  6. If any water spills on the base, wipe dry before plugging in.
  7. Plug in and turn dial to desired setting.

Tip: Using distilled water can reduce white dust. Never use hot water.

Maintenance & Cleaning

Regular cleaning prevents mold and mineral buildup.

  1. Daily: Empty any unused water and rinse the tank with clean water.
  2. Weekly: Deep clean tank and base with a mixture of white vinegar and water (1:1 ratio).
  3. Fill tank with vinegar solution, let sit for 20 minutes, then scrub with soft brush.
  4. Rinse thoroughly with clean water until vinegar smell is gone.
  5. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth; never immerse in water.
  6. Dry all parts completely before reassembling.

CAUTION! Unplug before cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaners or bleach.

Filter Information

This is a filter-free humidifier. No replacement filters are required. However, mineral deposits may form if using hard water. Clean regularly with vinegar as described. For areas with very hard water, using distilled water is recommended to minimize maintenance.
