Step 4. Setting
the Controls
Where you set your desired
humidity levels depends on
your personal comfort level,
outside temperature and
inside temperature. A starting
Set point of 30%-40% ROOM
humidity is recommended but
there may be conditions that require a different setting.
The chart provided offers general guidelines for selecting indoor humidity.
IMPORTANT: Water damage may result if condensation starts to form
on windows or walls. Humidity SET point should be lowered until
condensation no longer forms. We recommend room humidity levels
do not exceed 50%.
Operating the Controls
Digital Display
Press the power button once to turn
the unit on*
. Initially there is a slight
delay while the electronics calibrate.
Two bars (--) appear during this time.
Once calibration is complete a ROOM
humidity reading between 20% – 95%
will be displayed. A flashing 20 display
indicates that the room humidity is less
than 20%.
NOTE: The default settings at initial
startup are (LOW) F1 fan speed and
65% SET humidity. After desired settings
are selected by the user, they remain as
long as the unit remains plugged in and
there is no power interruption. If the unit is
unplugged the original default settings
are employed.
Speed Button
This humidifier is equipped with a
3-speed fan control. Initially depressing the speed button will display the current
speed setting. Each push of the speed button advances the mode through the
settings of (HIGH) F3, (MEDIUM) F2, (LOW) F1 and (AUTO) A.
The selected setting is displayed on the digital readout. The higher the setting, the
faster water is evaporated and released into the air. F1 (LOW) is the quietest
setting and is provided for conditions that do not require a rapid evaporation rate.
When (AUTO) A is selected the humidifier will determine the required fan speed
needed to bring the actual room humidity up to the set humidity.
When Outdoor
Temperature is:
2˚F -18˚C

*Humidifier fan should operate at
initial startup. If it does not, refer
to "Fan not operating (digital
display is illuminated)" in the
