CLEANING AND CARE
CLEANING THE TRANSDUCER/ULTRASONIC MEMBRANE
The transducer/ultrasonic membrane must be cleaned to remove water mineral deposits when the red LED above the clean transducer/ultrasonic membrane button is illuminated. Failure to do so may cause reduced or no mist output.
- Remove the water tank from the humidifier base and set aside.
- Pour out any remaining water inside the water reservoir.
- Clean the transducer/ultrasonic membrane with a 50/50 mix of white vinegar and water on a cotton swab. Wipe off with a damp cotton swab. Press and hold the clean button for 3 seconds until the clean light turns off.
NEVER touch the transducer/ultrasonic membrane with your fingers; the natural oils in the skin can damage the surface.
NEVER submerge the base in water or any other liquid.
TO CLEAN THE TANK
Remove the water tank from the humidifier base by lifting it from the main unit. Unscrew the tank cap and rinse inside the tank with clean water.
- Every day: Empty and rinse the tank and tank cap before refilling.
- Every week: To remove any scale or buildup, use a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and lukewarm water to clean the inside of the tank.
TO CLEAN THE OIL TRAY
Open the oil tray and remove the pad. Essential oil pads should be changed when switching to a different essential oil scent. If continuing to use the same scent, set the essential oil pad aside for reuse. Wipe down the inside of the oil tray with a soft cloth. Place the essential oil pad back in the tray and close.
NOTE: Leave the essential oil pad out of the oil tray when storing.
TO CLEAN THE SURFACE
Clean the surface of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Before storing: Clean the tank, reservoir, tank cap, and the transducer/ ultrasonic membrane with a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and water. Be sure to rinse and let all parts dry completely before storing. Clean the oil tray with a soft cloth.
After storing: Rinse the tank with water before operating.
