  1. Unpack: Carefully remove the humidifier from its packaging. Retain packaging for storage or return if needed.
  2. Placement: Place the humidifier on a firm, flat, water-resistant surface at least 6 inches (15 cm) away from walls and furniture. Ensure the mist outlet is not directed at walls or electronics.
  3. Fill Water Tank:
    • Ensure the unit is unplugged.
    • Open the top cover of the humidifier.
    • Pour clean, cool tap water directly into the water tank. Do not exceed the maximum fill line. Distilled water is recommended to minimize mineral buildup.
    • Close the top cover securely.
  4. Connect Power: Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet.

6. Operating Instructions

  1. Power On/Off: Press the soft-touch power button (usually indicated by a power symbol) once to turn the humidifier on. Press it again to turn it off.
  2. Adjust Mist Output: The humidifier features adjustable mist settings. Repeatedly press the power button to cycle through different mist levels (e.g., Low, Medium, High). The indicator light will change to reflect the selected setting.
  3. Adjust Mist Direction: Rotate the 360-degree dual port nozzle on top of the unit to direct the mist flow as desired.
  4. Using the Essential Oil Tray:
    • Locate the essential oil tray, typically a small drawer or compartment on the side or back of the base unit.
    • Add a few drops of your preferred essential oil onto the aroma pad (if included) or directly into the tray.
    • Close the tray. The mist will carry the aroma into the air.
    • Do not add essential oils directly into the water tank, as this can damage the unit.
  5. Automatic Shut-Off: The humidifier will automatically turn off when the water level in the tank is too low. Refill the tank to resume operation.
