Cleaning the Humidifi er and the Water Tank
Many regions have hard water with high con-
centrations of minerals. When water evaporates
from The Care Free ® Humidifi er Plus Evaporative
Humidifi er, minerals may be left behind. These
minerals can form a hard white scale which can
be removed by following the cleaning instruc-
tions. The frequency of cleaning due to mineral
build up can vary depending upon the quality
of water you may have.
Refer to Figure 1 for part names.
1. Turn the humidifier 'OFF' and unplug
the unit.
2. Lift the main housing and remove the
water dispersion tray and the PermaWick™
Filters. The motor is attached to the main
housing. Do not place the motor near
water. Do not use a wet towel on the
motor or motor housing as electrical
shock may occur.
3. The PermaWick™ Filter should be
cleaned in a vinegar and water solution to
remove any mineral buildup. Place in a solu-
tion of one (1) gallon of water and eight (8)
ounces of undiluted white vinegar. Allow the
fi lter to soak for 20 minutes.
