CLEANING CONTINUED
• Fill the Reservoir Base with one 8-oz. (250ml) cup of undiluted white vinegar. Let
solution stay for 20 minutes.
• With vinegar still in the unit, clean all interior surfaces of the base with a soft
brush or cloth to remove scale.
• Rinse Reservoir Base thoroughly with clean, warm water to remove scale and
cleaning solution.
STEP TWO: WEEKLY DISINFECTING (WATER TANK,
RESERVOIR BASE)
• Empty the water tank. Refill with 1 teaspoon of chlorine bleach in 1 gallon (4 litres)
water. Let solution stay in the tank 20 minutes, swishing every few minutes to wet
all surfaces.
• Empty tank after 20 minutes. Rinse with water until bleach smell is gone.
• Repeat for the Reservoir Base.
AFTER DISINFECTING
• Clean all surfaces of the power unit with a dry, soft cloth. WARNING: DO NOT USE
WATER TO CLEAN THE POWER UNIT. THIS MAY DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER OR CAUSE
ELECTRIC SHOCK.
• If you have hard water, you may need to clean or change the filter more often. If
the filter is dirty, rinse it under cold tap water and turn the filter upside down
before repositioning in the base. Do not squeeze or wring out pad. Do not soak pad
in bleach or vinegar.
When the filter turns dark brown, replace it. For best and proven results always
use Honeywell Cool Moisture filters available from your local store or from
Honeywell.
• Reposition the Filter, Motor Housing and Water Tank.
NOTE: THE FAN MOTOR OF THIS HUMIDIFIER AND THE COOL MOISTURE FILTER ARE
DESIGNED TO FUNCTION EFFICIENTLY AS A SET.
USING ANY OTHER FILTER COULD
DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER’S MOTOR OR IMPAIR ITS PERFORMANCE.
