HOW TO CLEAN YOUR CONSOLE
Regular cleaning is important for preventing mold,
mildew, and other bacterial growth in your humidifier.
It also keeps your Console working its best.
1. Let the unit run until it's empty, then turn it off and
unplug it.
2. Remove the water bottle and the top from the base.
3. Throw your wick away if it is time to replace it.
Otherwise, remove it from the base and put the wick in
a sink while you finish cleaning your Console.
4. Pour out any remaining water from the base and bottle.
5. Clean the base and bottle by filling each half-full with
water. Add 1 cup of white vinegar to each. Let these sit
for 20 minutes. To disinfect, replace the vinegar with 1
teaspoon of bleach in each. Do not mix vinegar and
bleach.
6. After 20 minutes, empty the base and bottle.
7. Dampen a sponge with white vinegar and wipe down
the base. Rinse it thoroughly. To disinfect, replace the
vinegar with bleach.
8. Wipe everything dry. Replace your wick or install a new
one, then reassemble the unit.
When storing your Console, discard the used wick and disinfect
the unit using the directions above. Dry the unit thoroughly, and
store in a temperature-regulated area. Do not install a new wick
until you are ready to use your humidifier again.
