PM 906 Digital Ultrasonic Humidifier
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Attention! Always switch off and unplug the unit before cleaning.
You can ensure many years of trouble free operation of your PM
906
humidifier by following a few simple maintenance procedures. If
your water is hard, containing high concentrations of calcium and other minerals, then over a period of time white dust will start to
deposit on the various surfaces in the room. A white, film-like substance will also start to develop in the water basin, on the transducer
and on the inner surface of the water tank. This white film will impede the proper function of the transducer and the operation of the
machine.
We recommend the following :
1. If your water is very hard, we recommend that you boil it first, allow it to cool completely before use in the humidifier. The boiling
will reduce the mineral concentration in the water. The other option is to use distilled water if your mineral level is still too high.
2. If you are using the machine on a daily basis, clean the transducer, water tank and basin once a week.
3. When the water tank needs a refill, empty the remaining water from the tank and fill it with fresh water.
4. Clean the whole machine and make sure to keep all the parts completely dry when the machine is not in use.
How to clean the transducer:
1. Place 5-10 drops of vinegar on the surface of the transducer and wait for 2-5 minutes.
2. Using a small brush, cotton swab or toothbrush, gently clean the mineral film from the surface of the transducer.
3. Rinse the transducer with clean water.
4. Never use sharp or solid objects for cleaning the transducer
How to clean the water basin:
1. Clean the water with a soft damp cloth. If there is excess film on the surfaces, then soak the cloth with vinegar and repeat the
process.
2. If there is a film in any of the depressions along the basin, drop a bit of vinegar into depression and clean it out with a brush.
3. Rinse the basin with clean water.
How to clean the White Dust & Anti-Microbial Filter:
1. Remove the filter from the water tank.
2. Put some white vinegar into a glass. Soak the filter in the vinegar for about 10 minutes.
3. Remove the filter from the glass and shake it several times.
4. Clean and rinse the filter once again with fresh water.
If you don’t plan to use the humidifier for a long time, remove the filter from the water tank and let it dry thoroughly. Then wrap it in
protective packaging and keep it next to the humidifier in a cool, dry and dark storage space.
