B. Humidifier operates too fast, fuse blows:
Overboiling, flickering lights, blown fuse or heavy steam flow generally indicates one of the following causes:
1. Too much salt was added to the water. To correct the condition:
I. Disconnect the humidifier from the electrical outlet and allow to cool.
II. Pour out the water and rinse the tank. Rinse steam unit as described in weekly maintenance. Refill
with fresh water but do not add salt. If humidifier now does not operate or steams too slowly, follow
the instructions in “Initial Setup and Operation”.
2. You live in a “hard water” area and minerals in the tap water are causing the humidifier to steam too
rapidly. To correct the condition:
I. Disconnect the humidifier from the electrical outlet and allow to cool.
II. Remove steam unit allowing hot water to first dribble out, then pour out water and rinse the tank.
Rinse steam unit as described in the weekly maintenance section. Refill with fresh water but do not
add salt.
III. If unit still steams too rapidly, use 1/2 distilled water and 1/2 tap water.
IV. In “hard water” areas it is advisable to clean the unit every few days in accordance with the weekly
maintenance instructions.
C. Humidifier is making crackling / buzzing / humming sounds or water container is
unusually hot:
1. You may have added too much salt. See section B above.
2. You may live in a “hard water” area. See section B above.
3. This condition can happen when the water level in the tank is low. Disconnect the humidifier from the
electrical outlet, allow to cool, remove steam unit allowing hot water to first dribble out. Fill the tank with
tap water to MAX water level marking.
4. This may be an indication your humidifier needs cleaning. Refer to weekly maintenance under“Cleaning
and Storage”.

Troubleshooting

A. Humidifier does not operate or steams too slowly:
1. Make sure the humidifier is plugged in and the power light is on.
2. If the power light is not on, you may have a blown fuse, tripped a circuit breaker, or a defective electrical
outlet. Try a different outlet or check your breaker or fuse in the house.
3. The fault may be low mineral content in the water. To rectify:
I. Unplug the humidifier from the electrical outlet and allow to cool.
II. Remove the tank allowing water to first dribble out, then add 1/16th teasponful of salt, with the
included spoon, to the water and mix thoroughly. Ensure salt is level with the top of the spoon. Do
not mound salt in spoon.
III. Replace the steam unit and plug in the humidifier. It should steam within 5 minutes. If it does not, add
1 more 1/16th of a teaspoon of salt. Do not exceeed 1/8th of a teaspoon since too much salt can
cause excessive boiling or blowing of fuse.
4. If the humidifier has been operating normally and is now failing to steam, it may need to be cleaned.
