2. Important Safety Instructions
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury, please observe the following safety precautions:
- Always place the humidifier on a firm, flat, waterproof surface at least 6 inches (15 cm) away from walls and appliances.
- Do not place the humidifier directly on carpet, a towel, or any surface that may block the ventilation openings.
- Ensure the power cord is not pinched or placed under heavy objects.
- Unplug the humidifier from the power outlet before filling, cleaning, or moving it.
- Do not immerse the humidifier base in water or other liquids.
- Do not add essential oils directly into the water tank. Use only the designated aroma box.
- Keep the humidifier out of reach of children and pets.
- Do not operate the humidifier if the cord or plug is damaged, or if the unit malfunctions or has been dropped.
- Use only clean, cool tap water. Distilled or demineralized water is recommended to prevent mineral buildup.
- Do not block the mist outlet or air intake vents.
- This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
