regulator handle all the way to the right.
The atomizer is clogged
Clean the atomizer.
Temperature of water in the tank is too low
Set maximum capacity. The humidifier’s

the atomizer’s surface. The water tank may leak upon
heavy impacts. In case of water leakage, immediately
stop using the unit and contact a service center. To keep
the unit dry, remove water after cleaning and make sure
