Replacement and Care of Filters
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
shock or injury from moving parts,
always unplug humidifier before
removing or replacing any parts.
CAUTION: To help retard bacteria
growth and keep maximum efficiency,
the filter should be replaced at least
once per season, or more often
under hard water conditions. Use
MoistAIR ® MAF-1 recommended
replacement filter.
Replace the evaporative wicking filter at
least once per humidification season or
more depending on water conditions in
your area.
Filter Replacement
1. Unplug humidifier. Before removing
the filter, we recommend moving the
humidifier to an area where floor
coverings are not susceptible to water
damage. (i.e. kitchen or bath areas.)
2. Remove the water bottle and set aside.
Be sure not to bump or damage the fill
valve.
3. Grasp the housing assembly and lift
straight up and away from the base
and set aside. The filter is now
accessible.
4. Take note of the filter position.
Remove the filter. You may want to
clean the base at this time. See the
"Cleaning and Maintenance" section of
this manual.
5. Install a new filter (MAF-1) into the
base. Coil the filter and position it
between the uprights in the bottom of
the base. The start and finish of the
coil should be captured at the centre
of the base (see diagram) and the
filter should be resting on the floor of
the base.
6. Return the housing assembly to the
top of the base. Reposition the
humidifier to its operating position.
7. The humidifier is now ready to be filled
for operation.
