Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the humidor from its packaging. Inspect for any damage.
2. Placement: Place the humidor on a firm, level surface away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and areas with high humidity fluctuations. Ensure adequate air circulation around the unit. The advised ambient temperature range for optimal performance is 64℉-78℉.
3. Power Connection: Connect the power adapter to the humidor and then plug it into a suitable electrical outlet.
4. Seasoning the Humidor: Before storing cigars, the Spanish cedar wood interior must be seasoned to prevent the wood from drawing moisture from your cigars. This process typically takes several days.
• Fill the provided water reservoir with distilled water.
• Place the filled reservoir inside the humidor.
• Close the humidor door and allow the humidity to stabilize. Monitor the built-in digital hygrometer.
• The seasoning process is complete when the internal humidity reaches a stable level, typically between 65-70% RH. This may take 3-5 days.
• Once seasoned, remove the water reservoir. You may use humidity control packs (not included) for ongoing humidity management.

Operating Instructions

Control Panel:

The humidor features an elegant touch control panel integrated into the glass door.

• Temperature Display: Shows the current internal temperature.
• Adjust Temperature: Use the Up (▲) and Down (▼) arrows to set your desired temperature between 54℉ and 74℉.
• Light Switch: Press the light bulb icon to toggle the internal LED light ON/OFF.
• Celsius/Fahrenheit Switch: Hold the temperature unit switch button (usually combined with the light button or a separate button) for 2 seconds to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
• Control Panel Lock: The control panel auto-locks after 30 seconds of inactivity. To unlock, press and hold the Up (▲) and Down (▼) buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds until you hear a "BEEP".

Cigar Storage:

The humidor can store up to 100 cigars, depending on their ring gauge. The Spanish cedar shelves and drawer are removable for flexible customization.

For optimal cigar preservation, maintain relative humidity between 55-65% and temperature around 64-74℉. The built-in digital hygrometer provides precise humidity monitoring.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. For the interior, use a clean, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Humidity Management: The humidor does not have automatic humidity control. Use humidity control packs (e.g., Boveda packs, not included) or the provided water reservoir with distilled water to maintain desired humidity levels. Check the digital hygrometer regularly.
• Spanish Cedar Care: The Spanish cedar wood naturally absorbs and retains humidity. Ensure it remains properly seasoned.
• Filter Cleaning: Periodically check and clean the cooling fan filter at the back of the unit to ensure optimal airflow.
