CLEANING THE PERMANENT FILTER

Through normal use, waterborne minerals and sediment

become trapped in the filter. The harder your water, the

greater the amount of minerals in the water, and the more

often you will need to clean your filter.

Filter Life – Under normal conditions of continuous use, a

brand new filter will operate efficiently for 1 month. It is

strongly recommended to wash your filter every 30 days of

use.

To remove filter for cleaning, follow the below steps:

1. Remove both tanks from the unit and allow humidifier to

operate for 30-40 minutes to consume water in the tray

and in the filter. This will reduce water spillage when

removing the filter.

2. Be sure the humidifier is switched OFF and the unit is

disconnected from the electrical outlet.

3. Hold the front door handle and open the front door to

access the filter. (see Figure 1).
