• Switch off the device and unplug the power cable from the socket before
all maintenance work and after each use.
• Never submerge the device in water (this can result in short-circuiting).
To clean the device, simply wipe it with a damp cloth and then dry it thor-
oughly. Always ensure the power cable has been unplugged beforehand.
• Descale the humidifier as appropriate for the hardness of the water, but
at least once a week: First remove the water tank (the upper section) and
clean it with a brush. Descale the device with a standard descaler and
then rinse it thoroughly. Reassemble the device completely before use.
• Thoroughly rinse out the water tank on a regular basis.
• Replace Filter Cartridge (4) every 1-2 months as appropriate for the hard-
ness of the water.
filter cartridge and Water hardness
• The life-span of the cartridge is dependent on the hardness of the water.
This can be tested using the test strip supplied (The test strip is adhered
to the reverse side of this instruction manual).
• Dip the test strip into the water for one second.
• After approx. one minute, the result can be seen on the measuring strip.
Some of the green areas will change their colour to pink. The number of
pink areas corresponds to the hardness of the water.
• Example: If there are three pink areas, the water has a hardness of “3”.

A simple test can be carried out to determine whether the cartridge is func-
tioning correctly: hold a small mirror in the mist coming out from the unit for
a few seconds. If a white deposit has been left on the mirror (a sign of lime
scale), the cartridge needs to be replaced.
ionic Silver cube (iSc
™
)(optional)
Before attaching the water tank, insert the “Silver Cube” in the base in the
position indicated.
The ISC
™
with its patented technology prevents the growth of bacteria and
germs. It can be used for a maximum of one season, and must be replaced at
the start of the next heating season (i.e. when the weather becomes cold).
Despite using the Ionic Silver Cube (ISC
™
) or the Antimicrobial Stick, you
should replace the water on a daily basis
