Frequently Asked Questions - 2055D BONECO

How to fill the water tank of the Boneco 2055D?

Remove the water tank, open the bayonet cap, fill with cold water, close tightly and replace it on the tray. Do not put any additives in the water.

What to do if the device does not turn on?

Check that the power cord is plugged in and the rotary switch is in a position other than OFF. Make sure the water tank contains enough water.

How to set the desired humidity level?

On the 2055D model, press the B button to adjust the desired humidity between 30% and 70%. The value flashes and then returns to the current humidity after a few seconds.

What does the flashing red symbol on the screen mean?

The F symbol indicates a lack of water in the tray. The device stops automatically. Fill the tray or replace the top part if it has been removed.

How to clean the humidification discs?

Disassemble the discs by unscrewing them with the multifunction fragrance container. Clean each disc with a soft brush and clear water. A light layer of limescale improves performance.

Foreword

Congratulations on purchasing the BONECO 2055 / BONECO 2055D Air Washer!

Did you know that excessively dry indoor air

• dries out mucous membranes and causes chapped lips and stinging eyes?
  promotes infections and diseases of the respiratory tract?
• leads to weariness, tiredness and poor concentration?
• is a burden on pets and houseplants?
  promotes the formation of dust and increases the electrostatic charge of textiles made from synthetic fibres, carpets and synthetic floors?
• damages furnishings made from wood, especially parquet floors?
• makes musical instruments go out of tune?

General

The indoor climate is generally pleasant when the relative humidity is between 40 and 60% . Air humidification is especially sensible in winter, but does not replace the regular airing of living spaces.

Safety instructions

• Read the instructions for use carefully before putting the appliance into operation, and keep in a safe place for later reference.
• Connect the appliance to an AC supply only with a voltage that corresponds to the rating plate on the unit.
• Only use the air humidifier in living spaces and within the specified technical data. Incorrect use may be dangerous to health and life.
  Children cannot recognise the dangers associated with the use of electrical devices. For this reason, always supervise children when they are in the vicinity of the air humidifier (Fig. 1).

How it works

Your appliance

• washes and humidifies the air without using filter mats
• works quietly in two operation modes
• is manufactured from high-quality, long-life components.
• has a large cleansing capacity through pre-ionisation. The individual dust particles are ionised (charged) and stick to the humidifier disks.

Special humidifying disks rotate in a water bath inside the unit; this cleanses the air passing over them of impurities in a natural way - in the same was that air is washed by the rain in nature.

The air humidification takes place according to the self-regulating principle of cold evaporation. The appliance therefore generates ideal air humidity, without the need for additional control units.

A specially tuned anti-bacterial protection system (Ionic Silver Stick) prevents the formation of germs in the water of the base unit. No chemical additives are therefore required to keep the water clean.

Description of the appliance

Adjusting the cable length

The overall length of the cable is approx. 2m but this can be adjusted as required.

• Switch the appliance off and remove the power plug from the mains socket. Do not pull on the cable (14).

• Open the cover (15 and 16)

• Insert the screwdriver (into the hole provided)

• Press outwards
• Push upwards
  Pull the cable from the cable compartment (17)

Filling the tank

Do not operate the appliance when the water tank is empty!

• Remove the water tank (19).
• Ensure that there are no foreign objects in the water tank.
• Remove the water tank cap from the tank (20). Fill the tank with fresh, cold tap water (21). Fully close the bayonet seal to prevent the water tank from leaking (22). Place the water tank on the water base (23). Do not add any additives to the water!
• Do not pressurise the water tank, e.g. by filling it with carbonated mineral water.
• Connect the mains cable to the mains and switch the appliance on.

The 2055D (digital) unit is fitted with an automatic cutoff switch. As soon as the water tank is empty, the unit switches off automatically. The empty indicator illuminates (also see section "Operation 2055D"). This function is not available on the 2055 unit.

Use of fragrances

The base contains a special fragrance container (24). Wadding soaked with fragrance can be placed in this container. Place fragrances only in the container provided! Water additives (e.g. essential oils, fragrances, water conditioners) must NOT be used in the tank or anywhere else in the appliance! Even a small amount can damage the plastic or cause cracks. The material is not suitable for the use of additives. One drop is enough to damage the water tank and therefore render the unit unusable. Appliances that are damaged by additives are excluded from the warranty. The fragrance container is also used as a tool for opening the rotary locks of the humidifying disks. To learn more about removing the disks, refer to section „Cleaning the humidifying disks".

Water quality maintenance

The innovative ionic Silver Stick (25) uses the proven antibacterial properties of silver, thereby keeping the water free of bacteria and germs. The ISS gives off silver ions into the water over a period of more than one year. It is self-renewing and requires no maintenance. The position of the ISS in the appliance can be seen in Fig. 25. First, switch the unit off.

Lifecycle indicator

Your appliance comes with a standard lifecycle indicator on the back of the upper part for changing the Ionic Silver Stick. To remind yourself of when you put the ISS into operation, please cross the current month on the indicator and write the current year on the line provided.

Operating 2055 Operating 2055D

A) Rotary switch

Connect the appliance to the mains and turn rotary switch A to position C or D as required. To switch the appliance off, turn the rotary switch to position B.

B) Switching on/off

If the rotary switch is in position B, the appliance is switched off.

C) Normal mode

If you select position C, then normal mode is set, and the appliance reaches maximum humidity output.

D) Night mode

If you turn the rotary switch to position D, the appliance works in night mode and is especially quiet.

E) Operating light

The green light (LED) (F) illuminates when the appliance is switched on.

A) Switching on/off

Turn rotary switch A from the OFF position to position H or G as required. Position H is especially quiet (night mode). Position G (normal mode) achieves maximum humidity output. As soon as the appliance is switched on, the display shows the current relative air humidity. The measurement is accurate to +/- 5% .

B) Setting the humidity output

The appliance is fitted with a hygrostat. This measures the relative air humidity and automatically switches the appliance off when the desired value is reached. When switching the unit on using the rotary switch (A), the desired value is preset to 55% .

The desired value can be adjusted in steps of 5% by pressing button B. While selecting the humidity output, the desired value is blinking. The word DESIRED appears on the display (E). The setting for the relative humidity ranges from a minimum of 30% to a maximum of 70% . A relative humidity of between 40 and 60% is recommended. After a few seconds, the display automatically changes

to show the current value (CURRENT) (E). Upon reaching the desired relative humidity, the unit automatically switches off (display shows DESIRED and CURRENT) (E). If the desired relative humidity falls, the appliance automatically switches on again.

Quick display of current relative humidity

When the unit is switched off (mains cable is connected, rotary switch to OFF setting), the current relative humidity can be shown in the display by briefly pressing one of the B buttons. This display automatically goes out after a few seconds.

C) Change Ionic Silver Stick

The letter C in the display indicates that the ionic Silver Stick (ISS) must be changed. The symbol remains visible until both B buttons are pressed and held down for approx. 5 seconds.

D) Cleaning the appliance

The letter D in the display indicates that the appliance must be cleaned. The letter remains visible until both B buttons are pressed and held down for approx. 5 seconds.

E) Current/Desired Display

If DESIRED appears on the display, the value in % next to it signifies the desired relative humidity, i.e. the desired value is shown. If the display shows CURRENT, then the current relative humidity is shown.

F) Automatic switch-off "Tank empty"

The water quantity is easy to see thanks to the transparent water tank. The display on the appliance also shows when the unit should be refilled with water. If the water level falls below the minimum quantity, the appliance automatically switches off. A red blinking symbol (F) appears on the display. When water is added, symbol F goes out and the appliance continues operating.

Warning: When lifting the upper part off the base, the appliance also switches off. In this case, the red blinking F symbol will also appear on the display. Only when the upper part is replaced on the base does symbol F go out and the appliance continues operating.

Cleaning/maintenance

Switch the appliance off and remove the power plug from the mains socket before you clean the appliance (26).

• Regular cleaning is a precondition for hygienic, trouble-free operation.
  The appliance can be disassembled for cleaning in a few moves.
• Never submerge the entire unit in water (28).
• The unit must be completely emptied and cleaned, if it has been filled with water for longer than a week without being used.

Recommended cleaning intervals

The recommended cleaning intervals depend on the air and water quality, as well as operating times. A thin film of lime scale on the disks actually increases the humidity output!

• once to twice a year: upper part of housing and fan
  every 2 weeks: water tank and base
  every 4 weeks: humidifying disks

Cleaning the upper part of the housing

Remove the upper part of the unit (30) and wipe out thoroughly once to twice a year with a damp cleaning cloth (31).

Cleaning the fan

The cover can be removed from the upper part of the unit (32). Under this cover is the fan (33), which can be cleaned with a damp cleaning cloth as required.

Cleaning the water tank and base (every 2 weeks)

• Lift the water tank out of the unit, open the water tank cap and clean the tank (33 - 35).
• Lift the upper part of the unit off the base and remove the ionic Silver Stick (36).
• Fill the base with water, pour in a commercial decalcification agent and allow to work;
  Rotate the disk assembly a few times by hand (37).
• Empty the water base (38), remove the disk assembly (39) and rinse (40).
• Remove deposits from the base using a plastic or wooden brush and a diluted, commercial washing-up detergent (41).

Cleaning the humidifying disks (every 4 weeks)

A thin film of lime scale on the disks actually increases the humidity output! To clean, unscrew the individual humidifying disks from each other. Rotary locks (toothed wheels) can be easily removed using the multifunctional fragrance container (42).

Next, the disks can be washed individually (43-44).

The toothed wheel can only be assembled in one position.

After cleaning, reassemble the appliance in the reverse sequence. Note: rotary locks have two rest positions. Warning Do not overtighten!
