Using Your Ultrasonic Humidifier

First Time Use

Read all instructions before using this appliance.
Unpack and remove all packing material from the Water Tank, Mist Nozzle and Base. 

Completely unravel power cord and place unit on a flat, stable surface. Remove the protective 

wrapper from the Demineralization Cartridge and place into the unit as shown. Follow the 

directions below to fill and operate the humidifier. 

Filling the Water Tank

Remove the Water Tank from the Base and turn it upside down. Turn the Tank Cap 

counterclockwise to open. Rinse and wipe clean.
Fill the Water Tank with clean, cool, tap water and replace the Tank Cap by firmly turning 

clockwise. Turn the Tank upright and check Tank Cap for leaks. If any water drips from 

Tank Cap, remove it and re-tighten. 

Use of very cold water may temporarily 

reduce the mist output. Never fill the humidifier with hot or warm water as 

this could cause damage and void your warranty.

 

To avoid white dust we recommend using a Kaz Demineralization Cartridge (Model DC-
51) and replacing it after 30-40 fillings. If you live in an extremely hard water area you 

may also wish to use distilled water to further reduce white dust. Refer to 

About White 

Dust

 section.

Inspect the Base and Nebulizer for cleanliness. Refer to 

Care and Cleaning

 section.

Replace the Water Tank on the Base.

Operating Instructions

Do not operate the humidifier without water in the Water Tank.
After filling the humidifier, be sure the Power Knob is in the OFF position, then plug the 

power cord into a 120 volt AC wall outlet.
Turn the Power Knob to the On position and then set mist intensity.

Mist will not appear immediately;

 allow a few minutes for the water to fill the  

Reservoir. If you are using a new Demineralization Cartridge, it may take up to fifteen  

minutes for the filtering material to become saturated and for mist to appear.
Direct Mist Nozzle away from walls and furniture. If condensation forms on walls or  

windows, or if indoor relative humidity exceeds 50%, reduce mist intensity setting, open 

door to room where humidifier is operating, or turn unit off.
If mist is not produced, unplug cord and check the Water Sensor in the Reservoir to 

ensure it is in contact with the water. The water level in the Base must be high enough to 

partially immerse the Water Sensor in order for the humidifier to work.
Turn the humidifier off before removing and refilling the Water Tank. When the tank is 

empty the mist will stop although the fan will continue to operate.
