TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE:
CHECK THE FOLLOWING IF YOUR HUMIDIFIER IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY:
PROBLEM | SOLUTION |
Water vapor and humidity are not produced. | Power plug – unplug cord from Humidifier + try again. Power failure – when power is restored, try again. |
Tank installation – make sure tank is attached correctly. | |
The surface of the transducer is dirty – wipe with soft cloth. | |
Air blows but water vapor is not produced. | Excessive water – remove a cup of water from the tank. Dirty tank – wash out tank and try again. Dirty Transducer – wipe the Transducer with a soft cloth. If you have hard water in your home, try using distilled water. The water tank is not properly connected to the base – place the tank onto the base properly so that there is no gap between the tank + base all the way around. |
Humidity level is low. | The surface of the Transducer is dirty – Wipe the Transducer with a soft cloth. The water in the unit is too cold – replace with cool, but not cold, water. |
The mist has a bad smell. | Poor maintenance or dirty water – clean the tank + base thoroughly according to instructions on page 10-11 and fill with fresh water. |
White dust is forming on nearby furniture. | Hard water may deposit a dust-like residue. In addition, dust in the air may settle due to the added humidity in the room. If this becomes a nuisance, use distilled water. |
PROBLEM | SOLUTION |
Unit has stopped working. | Low to no water – unplug unit and refill tank. |
Water is accumulating outside of unit or area surrounding unit. | Saturation of humidity – lower mist control setting.
Unit not level – unplug and place on level surface. |
Point spray away from objects. | |
Raise unit on a water-resistant level surface 2-3 feet off of floor. | |
Water dripping when refilling. | Loose cap – tighten cap by turning all the way in a clockwise direction. Water remaining on bottom of tank – wipe tank or tilt to drain before transporting. |
Increased noise level. | Unit on uneven surface – unit must be placed on a flat, hard surface. Make sure it is NOT placed on a soft or absorbent surface. |
Blue light flashing three times. | Indicates low water – unplug and refill tank. |
No reaction when the Light Control Button is pressed. | The water tank is not properly connected to the base – place the tank onto the base properly so that there is no gap between the tank + base all the way around.
The power adapter is not inserted properly. Reinsert the adapter into both the base + outlet. |
