DO

NOT ADD AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF

SALT. The appliance is not to be operated from a DC supply. - Be aware that high humidity levels may encourage the growth of biological organisms in the environment. - Do not permit the area around the humidier to become damp or wet. If dampness occurs, turn the output of the humidier down. If the humidier output volume cannot be turned down, use the humidier intermittently. Do not allow absorbent materials, such as carpeting, curtains, drapes, or tablecloth, to become damp.- Unplug the appliance during lling and cleaning. Pay attention, the residual water and some part of the appliance (the part immersed in the boiler and the one around the steam outlet hole) may be hot. - Do not leave water in the reservoir when the appliance is not in use. - Empty and clean the humidier before storage.

Technical informations - Do not use the appliance when barefoot. - Do not leave the appliance exposed to weathering (raie, sunlight). - Do not subject it to rough handling. The power cable should be extended to its full length to avoid overheating. If you decide you do not want to use this appliance any longer, disable it by cutting the power cable of course, after disconnecting it from the socket. In case of a breakdown or malfunctioning of the appliance, disconnect it at once. Do not attempt to repair it, but take it to a service centre approved by the manufacturer. Do not use the appliance out of doors. Do not direct the steam jet against people, objects or the walls. Take care never to turn the appliance upside down while it is in use. Place the appliance on a at surface during use. Never rest the appliance directly on furniture, carpeting or parquet oors. Even if the appliance runs dry, this does not damage it nor does it consume power. In order to avoid irreparable damage to the appliance and malfunctioning, never pour any other substance than water (e.g. salt) into the reservoir. If this should be done by mistake, rinse it out at once with tap water. If you want to use scented oils, they should be poured into the recess provided for this purpose. For safety reasons, the boiler section of the appliance should never be opened. Technical data indicated on the appliance.

9The humidier is provided with a special safety system which prevents the boiler from being separated from the water reservoir when the power supply cable is plugged into the appliance. Fig. 1 - In order to separate the boiler from the reservoir, rst disconnect the power supply cable (1) and then twist the boiler counter-clockwise (2) and lift it off (3). For tap water into the reservoir until the coloured mark on the oat appears. Do not exceed the maximum limit of 2 liters (AR820, ARM8U001). Do not add salt or any other substances into the reservoir to avoid damaging the appliance and causing safety problems. FIG.2

820 - Fit the boiler onto the reservoir with the “n” opposite the arrow on

the reservoir’s band (1). Twist it clockwise as far as it will go (2). Now plug the power cable into the humidier (3). It is necessary to await 5/10 minutes before the appliance gets the maximum intensity of vaporization. FIG.3 - Before plugging the power cable into the humidier, make sure that the appliance has not become wet during lling. Otherwise, dry it carefully. If you want to use scented oil, you must pour it into the small recess around the steam outlet hole (g. 3) before plugging the power supply cable into the appliance. DO NOT POUR ESSENCES IN THE STEAM OUTLET HOLE OR IN THE TANK. In order to start up the appliance, plug the power supply cable into the wall socket. It will take a few minutes before it starts emitting steam. FIG.4 - The steam jet can be adjusted by means of the adjusting knob (g. 4). If the water level drops below the level of the electrodes, steaming stops. This does not damage the appliance and does not consume power. A residual amount of water with all the impurities will remain at the bottom of the reservoir. It will serve to make cleaning easier. When using again the humidier after a pause, rst empty it and rinse it out well before pouring in fresh tap water. If you don’t, the water’s conductivity is increased and this makes the appliance becomes noisy and the electrodes wear out more rapidly. Instructions for useAR820 - ARM8U001 Fig. 4Fig. 3Maintenance This appliance does not require any other maintenance than regular cleaning. Disconnect the appliance and wait for it to cool down before cleaning it. NEVER IMMERSE THE APPLIANCE IN WATER. Owing to the impurities contained in the water, the amount of steam which the appliance releases may diminish after using it for a long time. In this case, disconnect the appliance, remove the boiler and leave it for about eight hours with its lower part in 8 cm of a solution made up of water and vinegar or a scale remover. The scales on the electrodes will come off and the humidier will start to run again regularly. Rinse the electrodes with tap water and dry off any water in the boiler or in the connector.
