Specifications

Controls and Settings

Access all functions via the capacitive touch control panel on the top of the unit.

Control Panel: POWER, MIST (Level), TIMER, LIGHT (Night Light).

POWER: Turns the humidifier on/off. A short beep confirms press.
MIST: Cycles through mist levels: Low (LED 1) -> Medium (LED 2) -> High (LED 3).
TIMER: Sets auto-off timer. Each press increases time by 1 hour (1-12 hrs), then cycles back to continuous operation.
LIGHT: Controls the night light: High Brightness -> Low Brightness -> Off.
Indicator Lights: Red light indicates low water level. Blue/White lights indicate normal operation and settings.

Operation Modes

Normal Mode: Operates at selected mist level (Low/Med/High).
Sleep Mode: Automatically activates when the timer is set. The display lights dim after 30 seconds of inactivity, and mist output is optimized for quiet operation.
Auto Mode: The humidifier maintains a comfortable humidity level by automatically adjusting mist output (if equipped with a humidistat - check model specifics).

  1. For continuous operation, do not set the timer.
  2. For nighttime use, set the timer and use the low mist level and dimmed night light.
  3. Always use clean, cool water for optimal performance and to minimize white dust.

Tip: Using distilled water can significantly reduce mineral buildup and white dust.

Using the Essential Oil Diffuser

The built-in aroma box allows for gentle aromatherapy.

  1. Ensure the humidifier is turned OFF and unplugged.
  2. Pull out the essential oil tray located on the side or top of the unit.
  3. Add 3-5 drops of your preferred pure essential oil onto the cotton pad inside the tray. Do not pour oil directly into the water tank.
  4. Slide the tray back into its slot securely.
  5. Turn on the humidifier as normal. The mist will carry the aroma into the air.

WARNING! Use only 100% pure, water-soluble essential oils. Do not use fragrance oils, chemicals, or thick oils. Clean the tray regularly to prevent clogging.

Care, Cleaning & Maintenance

Regular cleaning prevents mold, bacteria, and mineral scale buildup.

Daily: Empty and rinse the water tank with fresh water if not in use for more than a day.
Weekly Cleaning:

  1. Unplug the unit. Remove the water tank and empty any remaining water.
  2. Fill the tank with 2-3 cups of clean water and add 1 teaspoon of white vinegar or a manufacturer-recommended cleaner.
  3. Swirl the solution inside the tank, then use a soft brush to clean the interior and the tank opening. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Rinse thoroughly 2-3 times with clean water to remove all cleaning solution residue.
  5. Wipe the exterior and base with a damp, soft cloth. Never immerse the base in water.
  6. Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling.
Descaling (Monthly): For areas with hard water, use a dedicated descaling solution or a stronger vinegar/water mix (1:1) to remove mineral deposits from the ultrasonic disc (metal plate at the bottom of the base). Gently wipe with a soft cloth.

CAUTION! Always unplug before cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaners, detergents, or submerge the base unit in water. Ensure all parts are completely dry before use.
