- Adjust Mist Level: Press the Mist button (💧) repeatedly to cycle through the three mist output levels: Low, Medium, and High. The LED display will indicate the current mist level. The 3L tank provides approximately 23 hours on Low, 18 hours on Medium, and 14 hours on High mist settings.
- Set Timer: Press the Timer button (⏱) to set the operating time. Each press will increase the timer by 1 hour, from 1 to 12 hours. The humidifier will automatically turn off when the set time expires.
