Remedy

Poor atomizing (insufficient 
capacity)

The unit is operating in the minimized 
mode (low atomizing frequency)

There is no problem. If you need to switch 
to the intensive mode of operation, turn the 
regulator handle all the way to the right.

The atomizer is clogged

Clean the atomizer.

Set maximum capacity. The humidifier’s 
capacity will go up after a while.

No atomizing

The power cord is poorly connected 
to the outlet

Connect the power cord into the outlet 
carefully

There is white deposit on objects 
around the humidifier (salts, 
separating out from water)

1. Lime deposits have formed on the

(no condensate)

We are researching new technologies and constantly improving the quality 

of our products. Specifications, design and scope of delivery may be 

changed without any prior notice.

* Products must be stored in dry, ventilated storages at the temperature not lower than -30°C.

IMPORTANT! 

To avoid deformation or wear of working surfaces, 

resulting in decreased atomizing or other malfunctions, 

do not use metallic brushes, blades or talc powder 

to wipe the atomizer’s surface. The water tank may 

leak upon heavy impacts. In case of water leakage, 

immediately stop using the unit and contact a service 

center. To keep the unit dry, remove water after cleaning 

and make sure to dry the unit’s case. Make sure that 

there is no water left inside the unit’s case. Prior to a long 

break in using the unit, dry its surface and pack it into 

a plastic bag, then put it into a box. Store the unit in a 

low-humidity room. Storing the unit undried results in 

generation of mold.

• 

Switch off the appliance and unplug it from the socket before cleaning it.

• 

Clean the water tank and the base regularly. Use water only, no 

detergents.
Always unplug the unit before removing the water tank. Do not touch the 

water in the base during operation!
