4.2 Nightlight Function
The humidifier features a soft blue nightlight. To turn the nightlight on or off, press the dedicated nightlight button (if available, otherwise it's integrated with the main control or automatic). Refer to the specific model's control panel for exact operation.
4.3 Aroma Diffuser
- Locate the aroma diffuser tray, typically a small drawer or compartment on the side or back of the base.
- Add a few drops of your preferred essential oil onto a cotton pad (not included) and place it in the tray.
- Close the tray. The humidifier's airflow will disperse the aroma into the room.
- Important: Do not add essential oils directly into the water tank or base chamber, as this can damage the unit and void the warranty.

5. Maintenance
Regular cleaning is essential to prevent mineral buildup and ensure optimal performance and hygiene. It is recommended to clean the humidifier every 2-3 weeks, or more frequently with heavy use or hard water.
5.1 Daily Maintenance

- Refill with fresh water.
5.2 Weekly Cleaning
- Unplug the humidifier and empty all water.
- Remove the water tank cover and the water filter.
- Cleaning the Water Tank: Rinse the water tank thoroughly with clean water. For mineral buildup, fill the tank with a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water, let it soak for 30 minutes, then scrub with the provided cleaning brush. Rinse thoroughly until the vinegar smell is gone.
- Cleaning the Base: Gently wipe the inside of the base chamber with a soft cloth dampened with white vinegar. Use the cleaning brush to clean hard-to-reach corners and the nebulizer (mist outlet). Do not immerse the base in water.
- Cleaning the Water Filter: Rotate the filter counter-clockwise to disassemble. Rinse under running water. If heavily scaled, soak in a white vinegar solution for 15-20 minutes, then rinse.
- Dry all parts completely before reassembling.
