Operation Tips: For best results, use in a closed room. Adjust mist level based on room humidity. Refill tank when empty (auto shut-off will activate).

Maintenance & Cleaning

Regular cleaning prevents mold, bacteria, and mineral buildup.

  1. Unplug unit and remove water tank.
  2. Empty any remaining water from tank and base.
  3. Clean tank: Fill with a mixture of white vinegar and water (1:1 ratio). Let sit for 20 minutes, then scrub with soft brush. Rinse thoroughly.

  5. Dry completely: Allow all parts to air dry before reassembly.
  6. Frequency: Clean every 1-2 weeks with regular use; more often if using hard water.

Tip: Using distilled water reduces cleaning frequency and minimizes white dust.
