MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

(!) Warning! Always switch off and unplug the appliance before cleaning.

Hard water causes mineral deposits on the nozzle, internal parts, and tank, reducing performance and leaving white residue on furniture. To prevent this, clean the nozzle weekly, change water frequently, and clean the filter cartridge (14) regularly.

If you will not use the humidifier for a long period: empty the water tank and nozzle compartment, wash and clean them, thoroughly dry, and store the device properly.

• Place 5–10 drops of cleaner on the nozzle (16), wait 2–5 minutes. Use brush (20) to remove deposits from the nozzle surface (16).

(!) Note:
- A descaling cleaner for kettles can be used for cleaning the nozzle.

• Do not immerse the housing in water or any liquids.

Filter cleaning

• Clean filter (14) after approximately 1000 liters of water, or more often if hard water is used or white residue appears on furniture.
• Remove the water tank (11) with handle (10) from the housing (17).
• Turn the tank (11) upside down, unscrew lid (15) counterclockwise, then unscrew the filter cartridge (14) counterclockwise.
