WHEN USING ELECTRICAL PRODUCTS, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. DANGER – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:
ULTRASONIC TECHNOLOGY This humidifier uses ultrasonic, high-frequency technology to convert water into a fine mist that is dispersed evenly into the air. DIGITAL READOUT Displays programmed humidity setting, timer setting, warm or cool mist selection, mist output level, and clean notification. PROGRAMMABLE HUMIDISTAT Customize the level of humidity between 35% and 55% in 5% increments. BUILT-IN TIMER Programmable timer, up to 12 hours. NIGHT-LIGHT/DISPLAY LIGHTS A useful light feature is included, with the option of independent night-light and display light controls. AUTO-SHUTOFF PROTECTION When the tanks are empty, the unit will shut off automatically. CAPACITY 2.0 gallons – 7.57 liters ROOM SIZE This humidifier is recommended for rooms up to 533 FT 2 /49.5 M 2 based on AHAM HU-1-2016 measurement as shown by independent third-party testing. DUAL WATER TANKS Dual water tanks are easy to fill and carry. RUNTIME: 12-120 HOURS Runtime is calculated based on using cool mist and setting the mist level to the low setting. Based on the natural humidity level in your home, the temperature of water you use, and the mist-level setting you choose, you may experience longer or shorter run times. OIL TRAY Includes 3 essential oil pads. Use with your favorite essential oil to deliver aroma into the air. CLEAN REMINDER “CLEAN” will illuminate on the display, indicating it is time to clean the transducer/ultrasonic membrane. TOTALCOMFORT ® ULTRASONIC HUMIDIFIER WARM & COOL MIST
POWER BUTTON Plug unit into a 120-volt AC electrical outlet. Press the power button to turn unit on. MIST OUTPUT LEVEL Mist adjusts from the lowest output (1) to the highest output (5). To increase the mist output, press the + button. The corresponding mist level will be lit on the display. To decrease mist output, press the – button. MIST TEMPERATURE SETTING To change the mist temperature from cool to warm mist, press the mist temperature button. “WARM” will be illuminated on the display. To change the mist temperature from warm to cool mist, press the mist temperature button again. “COOL” will be illuminated on the display. NOTE: Once warm mist is selected, it will take approximately 20 minutes to heat up the mist. The warm setting reduces Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria in the mist after 40 minutes continuous warm mist operation on the low mist setting as shown by independent third-party testing. PROGRAMMABLE HUMIDISTAT The default humidistat setting is CO (continuous on). The programmable humidistat can be set in 5% increments, from 35% to 55% humidity. To program the humidity level, press the humidistat button. Then press the + or – button. The humidity level will increase/decrease by 5% every time the + or – button is pressed and will show on the display screen. Keep pressing the + or – button until the desired humidity setting is reached. The display will show the set humidity level for 5 seconds, then default back to display the mist output level. NOTE: To eliminate any programmed humidistat setting, press the humidistat button. Then press the + button until you reach “CO” (continuous on), one level above 55%. NOTE: When the set humidity level is reached, the humidifier will cycle off until the humidity in the room drops 5% below the set humidity level, then will cycle on until the set humidity level is reached again.
NIGHT-LIGHT/DISPLAY LIGHT Press the night-light/display light button once to turn on the night-light. The light at the bottom of the water tanks will turn on, illuminating the tanks. Press the night- light/display light button a second time to leave the night-light on, but turn off the display light. Press the night-light/display light button a third time to turn off the night-light and display light so no lights are illuminated. Press the night-light/display light button a fourth time to turn the display light back on. TIMER Press the timer button. Keep pressing the timer button until the desired timer setting is lit on the display. The timer button will cycle through the following settings: 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours. To turn the timer off, press the timer button until 0 hours is shown on the display. NOTE: Always be sure the humidifier has a full tank of water prior to using the timer setting. AUTO-SHUTOFF PROTECTION When the water in the tank is almost empty, the humidifying function will power off. NOTE: It is normal to have a small amount of water in the base during and after use. ESSENTIAL OIL-CAPABLE The optional essential oil feature will function automatically when the mist is turned on. CLEAN REMINDER “CLEAN” will illuminate red indicating it is time to clean the transducer/ultrasonic membrane. See cleaning instructions in the Cleaning and Care section. After cleaning, press and hold the power button until the clean light indicator turns off. HOW TO FILL CAUTION: Before filling tanks with water, turn the power off and unplug the unit from the outlet. NOTE: Always use 2 hands to carry the water tank.
HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OIL Use your favorite essential oil to deliver scent into the air. NOTE: For use with the included HoMedics essential oil pads only. NOTE: DO NOT leave a filled essential oil pad in the oil tray of the humidifier if it will be out of use for a long period of time. ARE ESSENTIAL OILS SAFE TO USE AROUND PETS? We should always exercise caution when using essential oils around our pets. Keep all essential oil and aromatherapy products (like diffusers) out of reach of pets. Keep open bottles away from pets to avoid internal consumption. We do not recommend the topical use of essential oils on pets, as they have a strong sense of smell and cannot get rid of the oil if they don’t like it or it is disturbing them. When diffusing essential oils around pets, always diffuse in a well-ventilated area and leave an option for them to remove themselves from the space, such as leaving a door open. Every animal is different, so carefully observe how each animal responds when introducing an essential oil for the first time. If irritation occurs, discontinue the use of the essential oil. Werecommend seeking medical attention if ingestion of essential oil occurs. ADDING ESSENTIAL OILS WARNING: PUTTING OIL ANYWHERE BUT THE OIL TRAY WILL DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER.

Use of high mineral content hard water may cause a white mineral residue to accumulate on surfaces in the room near the humidifier. The mineral residue is commonly called “white dust.” The higher the mineral content (or, the harder your water is), the greater the potential for white dust. The white dust is not caused by a defect in the humidifier. It is caused only by minerals suspended in the water. HOW AND WHY TO USE DEMINERALIZATION CARTRIDGES The HoMedics Demineralization Cartridge will help reduce the potential for white dust. The cartridge should be replaced every 30–40 fillings. The cartridge may need to be replaced more often if you are using very hard water. Replace the cartridge when you notice an increase in white dust buildup. If white dust still forms around the humidifier after a new cartridge has been installed, consider using distilled water. If you live in an area with hard water or use a water softener, we recommend using distilled water for better results from your humidifier. NEVER use water-softening additives in your humidifier. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Before cleaning the unit, turn power off and unplug unit from the outlet. CLEANING THE TRANSDUCER/ULTRASONIC MEMBRANE The transducer/ultrasonic membrane must be cleaned to remove water mineral deposits when “CLEAN” is illuminated on the display. Failure to do so may cause reduced or no mist output.
TO CLEAN THE TANKS Remove the water tanks from the humidifier base by lifting them from the main unit. Unscrew the tank caps and rinse inside the tanks with clean water. Every day: Empty and rinse each 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 tanks.
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 tanks, reservoir, tank caps, 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 tanks, reservoir, ultrasonic membrane, and essential oil tray with water. Dry completely before filling. Only fill the tank just before operating.
