Cleaning Your Protec™ Cleaning Cartridge helps your humidifier stay cleaner longer and will help extend the life of your filter. However, you should still continue to clean your humidifier regularly as needed. Cleaning involves two steps, SCALE REMOVAL and DISINFECTING. Be sure to perform these in the proper order to avoid harmful chemical interactions. • First, turn off and unplug the humidifier. • Remove the Water Tank and Motor Housing. • Remove the filter from the Base. • Empty any water from the Base. NOTE: REMOVE FILTER AND PROTEC™ CLEANING CARTRIDGE BEFORE CLEANING. Failure to remove filter during cleaning will destroy the filter. STEP ONE: SCALE REMOVAL BASE 1. Fill the Base with: • 1 cup (8 ozs.) of undiluted white vinegar or • Honeywell® Humidifier Cleaner, part no. HAC-101, following bottle instructions. STEP TWO: DISINFECTING WATER TANK/BASE 1.

Let solution stand for 20 minutes. 3. With the vinegar or Honeywell® Humidifier Cleaner in the Base, clean all interior surfaces with a soft cloth or brush to help remove scales. 3. Rinse with water until the smell of bleach is gone. 4. Rinse the Base thoroughly with water to remove scale and cleaning solution. NOTES: • The use of other water treatment products and chemicals may cause deterioration of the filter or damage the humidifier, thereby hindering the humidifier's effectiveness. • If you are experiencing more buildup than when you first purchased your humidifier, you may need to replace your Protec™ Cleaning Cartridge. Changing your cartridge every 30 days will provide continuous protection. 9
