Product Overview

The Medisana AH 660 Air Humidifier utilizes ultrasound technology to improve indoor air quality by dispersing micro-fine mist into the air. This helps to alleviate symptoms associated with dry air, such as dry eyes, irritated throat, and dry skin, while also making breathing easier. It is designed for rooms up to approximately 30 square meters.

Key Features:

• High efficiency through micro-fine atomization.
• Suitable for rooms up to approximately 30m².
• Continuously adjustable nebulization intensity.
• Includes a water filter to reduce mineral deposits.
• Low-noise and energy-saving operation.
• Automatic shut-off when the water tank is empty.

Setup

1. Unpack the Humidifier: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all packing materials are removed.
2. Place the Unit: Select a firm, flat, and waterproof surface for the humidifier. Place it at least 6 inches (15 cm) away from walls and furniture to allow for proper mist dispersion. Avoid placing it on carpets or near heat sources.
3. Remove Water Tank: Gently lift the water tank from the base unit using the integrated handle.

2. Adjust Mist Intensity: Continue turning the control knob clockwise to increase the mist output. Turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the mist output. Adjust to your desired level of humidification.
3. Automatic Shut-off: The humidifier will automatically turn off when the water tank is empty. The power indicator light may change color (e.g., to red) or turn off to indicate the need for refilling.
4. Power Off: Turn the control knob counter-clockwise until it clicks into the "Off" position. Unplug the unit from the power outlet when not in use or before cleaning.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning is crucial to maintain the efficiency and hygiene of your humidifier. Neglecting cleaning can lead to mineral buildup and the growth of bacteria or mold.

Daily Maintenance:

• Empty and rinse the water tank and base reservoir with fresh water.
• Wipe down the surfaces with a clean, dry cloth.
• Refill with fresh water before each use.

Weekly Cleaning:

1. Unplug and Disassemble: Ensure the humidifier is unplugged. Remove the water tank and any other removable parts.
2. Clean Water Tank: Fill the water tank with a mixture of 1 teaspoon of white vinegar per gallon of water. Let it stand for 20-30 minutes. Shake the tank occasionally. Rinse thoroughly with clean water until the vinegar smell is gone.
3. Clean Base Reservoir: Pour the vinegar solution into the base reservoir. Use a soft brush or cloth to clean the ultrasonic transducer (the small disc) and the inside of the reservoir. Do not scrub the transducer aggressively. Let it soak for 20-30 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
4. Clean Water Filter: The humidifier includes a water filter. Remove the filter from the tank cap. Rinse it under running water. If heavily soiled or if white dust persists, consider replacing it.

5. Dry and Reassemble: Wipe all parts dry with a clean cloth before reassembling. Ensure all parts are completely dry before storing or next use.

Note: Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, as these can damage the humidifier's surfaces or internal components.
