CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Be sure to unplug from the electrical supply source before cleaning.
Do not submerge humidfier base in water.
Do not attempt to disassemble the humidifier base for cleaning.
• Clean the transducer, water tank and interior of the base every week.
• Film or scale may for on the transducer or the interior of the base. To clean the
transducer, soak with undiluted vinegar for approximately 20 minutes. Gently
wipe with a soft cloth. Rinse with warm clean water.
• Plastic parts of the humidifier should be cleaned with mild soap and a damp
cloth or sponge. Rinse with clean water to remove any soapy film residue.
FILTER INSTALLATION
Your humidifier comes with a ceramic infused filter cartridge to soften water and
reduce calcium build up. It should be replaced approximately every 6 months. It can
be replaced sooner if you see an increase of calcium build-up in the water.
To install the filter cartridge,
remove the cap to the
water tank by turning it
counterclockwise (left).
It is recommended that you rinse the filter with warm water every time you add water
to the tank.
NOTE: You do not need the filter cartridge in order to operate the humidifier.
REPLACEMENT FILTER
Use Replacement Filter Model HF1. To purchase a replacement filter, it is
recommended that you check with the retailer where you purchased your humidifier
or online retailers. You can also contact the Black + Decker Customer Satisfaction
Center at 844-299-0879 or service at equitybrands.com.
STORAGE
If you are not going to use the humidifier for a long time make sure all water is
removed and the humidifier is clean and dry. Store in a cool dry place.
