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 (refer to the rating

artwork placed on 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 COOL MIST WORKS

Your Holmes

Cool Mist humidifier draws dry air through

the rear air intake grill area. This air is then passed

through a moisture–laden wick filter, 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 off.

2. Select a location for your humidifier, on a flat level

surface about 4 inches (10 cm) away from the wall.

DO NOT place the humidifier on a finished floor or

near furniture, which can be damaged by too much

moisture or water. Place on a moisture resistant

surface.

stoves, radiators, and heaters. DO locate your

humidifier on an inside wall near an electrical outlet.

The humidifier should be at least 4 inches (10 cm)

away from the wall for best results.

5. NEVER place humidifier in an area where it is accessible

to children. NEVER use humidifier in a closed room,

particularly where a child may be sleeping, resting, or

REPLACING THE FILTERS

Through normal use, waterborne minerals and sediment

become trapped in the wick filter. The harder your water,

the greater the amount of minerals in the water, and the

more often you will need to change your filter.

humidifier by checking the FilterCheck

Indicator. When

the unit is off, the FilterCheck

Indicator will read in the

OFF position.

Indicator

will move from the OFF position and indicate your filter

condition.

A brand new filter will

reading GOOD filter. After

frequent use of your

humidifier, the FilterCheck

Indicator will let you know

when the filters need to be

changed, see Figure 2.

When the needle is in the

CHANGE section, this means the proper amount of

moisture is not getting into your air due to the excessive

minerals and sediment that have become trapped on your

filters. At this point, you should replace your filter. It is

important to change your filter as indicated to obtain

stated performance level.

To replace the filter, follow the steps below:

1. Turn the unit off and disconnect from the electrical

outlet.
