Step 4
4.
Add ½ tsp of bleach to ½ gallon (1.9L) of water and add to Water Tank. Replace
Tank Cap. Swish solution around in Tank. Place Tank on Base. Bleach solution will drain into
Water Reservoir and will disinfect Water Reservoir and other components as they soak.
NOTE: Using more than 1 tsp. of bleach per gallon of water may result in damage to your humidifier.
5.
Allow the bleach solution to remain in Tank and on Base for 15-20 minutes. Unlock Tank Cap
and pour solution out in sink. Pour solution from Water Reservoir out in sink. Wipe Nebulizer
and Float with a soft cloth to remove loosened mineral deposits.
6.
Pour a cup of water into Water Reservoir, lightly swish and pour water out. Do as many times
as needed until smell of bleach solution is gone. Avoid getting water into any openings on the
humidifier base.
NOTE: DO NOT mix vinegar and bleach solutions together. Scale Removal and Disinfecting
must be done separately.

and accesories to dry completely before storing.
