OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Your humidifier is equipped with a technologically advanced Digital Humidistat. You can set the humidifier to run continuously in manual mode or set the Digital Humidistat to your desired humidity setting. The Digital Humidistat will automatically turn the humidifier ON or OFF, depending on the preset comfort level. The comfort level ranges from 30% and 65% relative humidity. MANUAL MODE INSTRUCTIONS 1. Plug the humidifier into a 120V AC electrical outlet. 2. The display will show the current room humidity. 3. To start the unit, push the mode ( ) button once for the high manual setting. 4. Press the button again for the medium manual setting and again for low manual setting. The settings will be displayed on the top of the Display Screen. To stop the unit, scroll through the settings until only the room humidity is displayed. PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Consumer Safety Information NOTE: This is an electrical appliance and requires attention when in use. NOTE: If moisture forms on the walls or windows of the room, turn off the humidifier. The room already has plenty of humidity and additional moisture may cause damage. NOTE: DO NOT block air inlet or outlet. Cord and Plug Installation Safety Instructions The length of cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the humidifier. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over. HOW YOUR COOL MOISTURE HUMIDIFIER WORKS Your Bionaire® Cool Moisture humidifier draws dry air through the rear air intake grill area. This air is then passed through 2 moisture–laden wick filters which retains the minerals and deposits in the water. The resulting moist air is directed back into the room from the top air grill. NOTE: This humidification system provides a cool, invisible moisture output. It is normal not to see the mist. NOTE: A humidity level below 20% can be unhealthy and uncomfortable. The recommended humidity level is between 40%-50%. PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Be sure the humidifier is switched to OFF and the unit is disconnected from the electrical outlet. 2. Select a location for your humidifier, on a flat surface, about 4” away from the wall. DO NOT place the humidifier on a finished floor or near furniture, which can be damaged by moisture or water. Place on a moisture-resistant surface. FILLING THE WATER RESERVOIR 1. Remove the reservoir from the housing of the humidifier by grabbing the handle of the reservoir and pulling forward. Lift the reservoir out of the housing and bring to the faucet. Turn the reservoir upside down and twist off the reservoir cap by turning counter clockwise. Fill reservoir with cool, fresh tap water. DO NOT fill with DIGITAL HUMIDISTAT INSTRUCTIONS To take advantage of the Digital Humidistat, press the mode ( ) button until the speed is set in either the High, Medium or Low and the Auto icon is displayed. Then adjust the humidity level by pressing the up ( ) and down ( ) buttons until the desired humidity level is achieved. The display will continue to show both the room and set humidity level. When the room humidity level rises above the set humidity, the humidifier will shut off. When the humidity level drops below the set humidity, the humidifier will turn on automatically. NOTE: When setting the Digital Humidistat, there will be a 2-minute delay before the unit turns on. This allows for the most accurate humidity reading. NOTE: There is a delayed reaction in the motor designed to prevent the motor from turning on and off frequently due to changing humidity levels. There is a 2-minute delay after the unit reaches it’s set humidity level before it will turn on again. It may be longer if the humidity level remains above the set humidity, but there will always be at least a 2-minute delay when the humidity leve...
