IMPORTANT SAFETY 
INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE SAFETY 
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING  
THIS HUMIDIFIER
When using electrical appliances, basic pre-
cautions should always be followed to reduce 
the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to 
persons, including the following
1.   Always place this humidifier on a firm, flat and 
level surface. This humidifier may not work 
properly on an uneven surface.
2.   Place this humidifier in an area where it is not 
accessible to children.
3.   Do not place the humidifier near any heat 
sources such as stoves, radiators, and heaters.
4.   Do not use the humidifier outdoors.
5.   Before using the humidifier, check the power 
cord for any signs of damage. If the cord is 
found to be damaged, 
DO NOT USE and return 
the humidifier to the manufacturer under the 
warranty agreement for repair.
6.   This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade 
is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of 
shock, this plug is intended to fit only one way 
in a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit 
securely in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still 
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.  
DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature.
7.   To disconnect the humidifier, first turn controls 
to the OFF position, then grip the plug and pull 
it from the wall outlet. Never pull by the cord.
8.   A loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) 
and plug may cause overheating and a 
distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified 
electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.
9.   The humidifier should always be unplugged 
and emptied when not in operation or while 
being serviced or cleaned.
10.  Never tilt or attempt to move the humidifier 
while it is operating or filled with water. 
UNPLUG the humidifier before moving.
11.  This humidifier requires regular cleaning. Refer 
to the CLEANING instructions provided. Never 
clean the humidifier in any manner other than 
as instructed in this manual.
12.  Do not direct moisture flow directly at 
individuals, walls or furniture.
13.  When a humidifier is used in a closed room 
or small rooms, check periodically for proper 
ventilation, as excessive humidity can cause 
condensation stains on walls.
14.  Turn the humidifier OFF if you notice moisture 
on the inside of your windows. For proper 
humidity reading use a hygrometer, which is 
available in many hardware and department 
stores, or by ordering one from  
the manufacturer.
15. This product is intended for residential  
use only.
