Essential Oils and Pets

Exercise caution when using essential oils around pets. Keep oils and diffusers out of reach. Do not apply oils topically to pets. Diffuse in well-ventilated areas, allowing pets to leave the space if desired. Observe pet reactions; discontinue use if irritation occurs. Seek medical attention if ingested.

Adding Essential Oils

WARNING: Adding oil anywhere except the oil tray will damage the humidifier.

1. The oil tray is located on the back of the humidifier.

3. Add 5-7 drops of essential oil to the pad (adjust as preferred).
4. Replace the tray and close. The scent will start automatically when mist is turned on.

About White Dust

White dust is caused by high mineral content in hard water, leading to mineral residue accumulation. This is not a defect but a result of minerals suspended in the water.

How and Why to Use Demineralization Cartridges

HoMedics Demineralization Cartridges help reduce white dust. Replace every 30-40 fillings, or more often with very hard water. Consider distilled water if white dust persists. Using distilled water is recommended for hard water areas or if using a water softener.

Installation Instructions

1. Remove cartridge from packaging and soak in water for 10 minutes.
2. Fill the tank with water as shown in the "How to Fill" section.
3. Add the soaked demineralization cartridge to the tank.
