Important Tips
Your humidifier must have the correct level of water in the base chamber to work properly. If there is too much water in the base chamber, the humidifier cannot create mist.
Never pour water directly into the base chamber. [Figure 3.4] Only add water to the water tank. The humidifier will automatically release the correct amount of water into the base chamber.
Avoid moving or shaking the humidifier. [Figure 3.5] This may cause the water tank to release too much water into the base chamber.
- Before moving the humidifier, turn it off, unplug it, and remove the water tank.
If your humidifier doesn’t produce mist correctly, check the max water line to see if there is too much water in the base chamber. Pour out extra water if water is over the max line. [Figure 3.6]
Note: The max water line is only for this purpose. Do not pour water into the base chamber.
Using the Aroma Box
Your humidifier can be used for aromatherapy.
Push the aroma box at the back of the base and pull it out. [Figure 3.7]
Put 8–10 drops of essential oil on the aroma pad. [Figure 3.8]
- Place the aroma box into the humidifier.
- Turn on the humidifier. The humidifier will automatically diffuse aroma when used.
Note:- Do not add essential oils, water treatment liquids, or third-party water filters into the water tank or base chamber. Only add essential oils to the aroma pad.
- The aroma pads can be cleaned and reused after diffusing essential oils
- The aroma is intended to be light. This humidifier is not an aroma diffuser.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Note
All maintenance should be done on a water-resistant surface, such as a kitchen counter.
Change the water daily to avoid bacteria growth.
Use a tissue or cloth to clean the nozzle regularly.
