4. Setup

5. Operating Instructions

The humidifier is operated via its touch-sensitive control panel.

Power On/Off

• Touch the power icon (often represented by a droplet or power symbol) on the control panel to turn the unit on or off.

Mist Modes

The humidifier offers four different mist modes:

• Low (L): Provides a gentle mist output.
• Medium (M): A moderate mist output.
• High (H): Maximum mist output for faster humidification.
• Sleep Mode (A): In this mode, the mist will cycle, outputting for 30 seconds and then pausing for 30 seconds, repeating the cycle. This mode is designed for quiet operation during rest periods.

To cycle through the mist modes, repeatedly touch the mist control icon (often represented by a droplet symbol) until the desired mode indicator (L, M, H, or A) illuminates.

Timer Settings

You can set the humidifier to automatically shut off after a specified duration:

• 1 Hour (1H)
• 2 Hours (2H)
• 4 Hours (4H)

To set the timer, repeatedly touch the timer control icon (often represented by a clock symbol) until the indicator for your desired duration (1H, 2H, or 4H) illuminates. The unit will automatically power off once the set time has elapsed.

Auto Shut-off

The humidifier is equipped with an auto shut-off feature that activates when the water level is too low, ensuring safety and preventing damage to the unit.

Regular cleaning is crucial for optimal performance and hygiene. The top-fill design and wide opening (4.7 inches) facilitate easy cleaning.

Daily Maintenance

• Rinse the water tank and base thoroughly with clean water.
• Wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Weekly Maintenance (or more frequently with hard water)

• Descaling: Unplug the unit. Pour 1 cup (240ml) of undiluted white vinegar into the water tank and base. Let it soak for 20-30 minutes.

• Rinse: Thoroughly rinse the tank and base with clean water until the smell of vinegar is gone.
