DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Select a firm, level, flat location – at least six inches (15 cm) from any wall or object for proper airflow. Take care when carrying, remove or secure the salt crystal tray to prevent it from sliding out. Place the humidifier on a water-resistant surface, as water can damage furniture and some flooring.

Filling – Make sure the unit is unplugged.

WARNING: DO NOT add oils or other additives directly into the water tank. DO NOT add oils directly to the salt crystals. Add only to the pad in the tray.

GENERAL CLEANING
- Remove the salt tray and dust off the salt crystals with a clean dry cloth. Do not wash or clean salt crystals with water or liquid detergents. If the salt crystal becomes moist, gently pat down the crystal surface with a dry cleaning cloth.
- Empty water tank. Remove the mist spout and clean with fresh water and a light brush (bottle cleaning brush is recommended).
- Wipe the outer surface of the unit with a soft, damp cloth if needed. If you notice an accumulation of water during usage, reduce humidity and dry the outer surface with a cloth.
DESCALING
- Depending on usage and water type, cleaning to remove scale may be required weekly or every other week to optimize unit performance.
- If you live in a hard water area, we recommend the use of distilled water for your humidifier. This will help reduce the precipitation of minerals or ‘white dust’.
- Do not clean the unit or water tank with detergents or cleaning chemicals of any kind.
ULTRASONIC DISK

- Remove the tank and empty all water from the unit base and tank.
- Locate the ultrasonic disk on the inside center of the base unit.
- Use ONLY the enclosed cleaning brush to gently clean the disk and remove build-up and deposits. Do not scrub or scrape the ultrasonic disk.
If scale becomes difficult to remove with a brush:
- Fill the Base with a mixture of 1 tsp. white vinegar and 1 tsp. water.
- Let the solution stand for 5 minutes.
- With the vinegar in the Base, clean all interior surfaces with a soft cloth or brush to help remove scale.
- Also, check the mist nozzle and mist tube in the water tank. Clean as needed.
- Rinse the Base thoroughly with water to remove the scale and vinegar solution.
