Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Solutions |
|---|---|
| The humidifier doesn't turn on, or stop misting unexpectedly. | Plug in the humidifier and turn it on. Add purified or distilled water to the water tank. Check to see if the humidifier is in Auto Mode. Depending on Auto Mode settings, the humidifier will automatically turn off when the humidity level is above the target level. The room may be larger than the humidifier's effective range. Move to a smaller room. Moisture may have built up inside the base of the humidifier. Turn off the humidifier and allow the base chamber to dry. Turn the mist level to a higher setting. Fill the water tank. There may be too much water in the base chamber. Empty the base chamber. Refill the water tank and place it properly onto the base. Make sure the humidifier is not set on carpet or other surfaces that may block air flow. Make sure the nozzles are not blocked or clogged. Make sure the humidifier is on a level surface. The water temperature may be too low. Turn the mist level to the highest setting and let the humidifier run for a while, then adjust to the desired setting. If the water tank or base was washed with detergent, rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove any detergent. |

Homvana App Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Solutions |
|---|---|
| Why isn't my humidifier connecting to the Homvana app? | Make sure your phone has Bluetooth® turned on and is not currently connected to another Bluetooth device. Make sure you are on a secure 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. Confirm that the network is working correctly. Make sure the Wi-Fi password you entered is correct. Make sure your humidifier and phone are within 30 ft / 10 m of each other. Reset the humidifier by pressing and holding for 15 seconds. Then try connecting again. |
| My humidifier is offline. | Make sure the humidifier is plugged in. The humidifier may appear to be offline if it is unplugged, or if the outlet does not have power. Refresh the Homvana menu by swiping it down on the screen. Make sure your router is connected to the internet and your phone's network connection is working. Reset the humidifier using one of these options: Delete the humidifier from the Homvana app. Swipe left (iOS®) or press and hold (Android), then tap Delete. Then reconfigure your humidifier with the Homvana app. Press and hold for 15 seconds. Then reconfigure your humidifier with the Homvana app. Note: Power outages, internet outages, or changing Wi-Fi routers may cause your humidifier to go offline. |
| The Homvana App is displaying an incorrect humidity percentage while the humidifier is turned on. | The humidifier uses up water based on the environmental temperature and humidity. If your environment is cold and/or dry, the humidifier will run out of water faster. The room may be larger than the humidifier's effective range. Move to a room smaller than 430–753 ft² / 40–70 m². Moisture may have built up inside the humidity sensor. Make sure the nozzles are facing away from the aroma box so that mist does not settle on the sensor inside the aroma box. Turn off the humidifier, remove the aroma box, and allow the sensor to air dry. If the humidifier is placed within 12 inches / 30 cm of a wall or in a corner, the humidity sensor cannot provide a proper reading for the relative humidity in the room. The humidity sensor will give an improper reading if it is exposed to dust. Avoid using the humidifier in dusty rooms. |
