Hint symbol Useful tips in order to get the most out of your product.

Thank you for choosing a Wood’s humi- dier. A Wood’s humidier will help you increase the humidity in your home or ofce and help you to keep a comfortable indoor climate all year around.

What is relative humidity? Relative humidity is the proportion of moisture or water vapour in the air in relation to the maximum possible level at the current temperature, expressed as a percentage. Common symptoms from insufcient humidity:

• Nasal congestion or runny nose

• Breathing difculties

• Dry complexion with aking skin

• Tiredness, drowsiness and poor concentration

• Respiratory infections and diseases, such as asthma.

• Dry throat and sore throat

• Dry eyes As we heat up the air in our homes, the relative humidity drops. The use of air conditioning units will also lower the humidity. A humidier adds water to air, increasing the relative humidity, creating a more comfortable indoor climate. For a comfortable and healthy indoor climate, maintain a humidity level between 50% and 60% RH.

1.3 Working Principle

An ultrasonic humidier uses an ultraso- nic high-frequency oscillator (transducer) to break up water into tiny water partic- les.The ventilation system blows out this water into the dry air where it evaporates to and increases the humidity. If you have problems with white dust when using your humidier, equip it with a Wood’s universal anti-scale lter. Ask your retailer for details. English7

Model: WHU600 Power supply: 220-240V 50/60Hz Heating power: 80W Humidify power: 30W Total power: 110W Water tank capacity: 5.5L Evaporation Rate: ≥300ml/H Noise level: ≤35dB(A) English *Technical changes and improvements may occur. All values are approximate and may vary due to external circumstances such as temperature, ventilation and humidity.10 ION TIMER Start or stop the humidier. When turned on, the humidier will start in AUTO-mode. Set fan speed: Press repeatedly to choose fan speed. First speed until fourth speed for each touch. Touch the fth time and it enters AUTO mode. In AUTO-mode, the fan speed will be set depending on your selec- ted humidity level. Set fan speed is shown as dashes on the right hand side of the display. Set desired humidity. Press repeatedly to choose desired humidity between 40% and 75%.Note that the humidier will operate only when set humidity level exceeds the ambient humidity level. When the set humidity level is higher than ambient humidity level the unit will stop and automatically restart when the humidity drops. Press once, it will increa- se by 5%RH. After setting expected humidity, LED display blinks for 5 seconds, then switch to show current temperature. If current humidity is lower than setting humidity, device will work in the third speed. If current humidity is higher than setting humidity, device will stop humidifying and stay in sleeping mode. (During sleep mode, ION and HEATING function are not available to select.) When current humidity is lower than setting humidity 2%RH, device will exit sleeping mode and humidify in previous setting. When setting reaches 75%RH, press again and it will change into AUTO mode and show “CO” on LED display. Press again, it will be back to 40%RH.
