HOW THE HUMIDIFIER WORKS AND ITS FEA TURES
■ A humidier eectively increases indoor air humidity and thereby improves air
quality and has apositive eect on human health. It acts preventively against drying
out of the mucous membrane in the respiratory tract and prevents respirat ory
illnesses. Its use is recommended primarily during the heating season, when, as
arule, indoor air is predominantly dry.
■ The SHF 2050BL / SHF 2051GR Humidier works on the principle of ahigh frequency
ultrasound oscillator . Thanks t o this technology, it produces c old steam and does
not aect the temperature in the room. The humidifying per formance is adjustable
and essential oils can be used to create a pleasant indoor atmosphere . With
a humidifying performance of 250 ml/h, it is suitable for rooms up to an area of
30 m2 . Its large 4-litre water tank guarantees an operating time of up to 16 hours per
single rell. When there is an insucient amount of water in the tank, asignal is lit
and, at the same time, aprotective function is activated, which automatically shuts
o the humidier to prevent its damage. The automatic shut o is also activated,
when the water tank is removed during operation.

OPERA TING LOCA TION OF THE HUMIDIFIER, ITS ASSEMBL Y
AND FILLING THE W A TER T ANK
1. Alway s place the humidier on an even, dry and stable sur face at a minimum
distance of:
– 60 cm from the oor;
– 30 cm from walls or sides of furniture;
– 200 cm from electrical and electronic devices or materials sensitive to moisture
to prevent their damage by the e ects of increased humidity.
2. M ake sure that the humidier is turned o and disconnected from the pow er socket.
Remove the nozzle A1 and lift the water tank A4 o the base unit A9 . Turn it upside
down and turn anticlockwise to unscrew the plug of the lling opening A5 and
remove it.
3. F ill the water tank A4 with clean cold tap water . Af ter lling up the water tank A4 ,
properly secure the plug A5 by turning it clockwise all the way . T ur n the water tank
A4 upside down with the plug A5 facing downwards and plac e it back on to the
base unit A9 so that both parts t into each other properly. When the water tank A4
is placed on the base unit A9 , water will start to be pumped into the water holder A6 .
Attention:
The water tank A4 is lled with water up to 40 °C.
If you need to move the humidier , be especially careful not to spill the
water contained in the water holder A6 .
4. After opening it, you may add afew dr ops of essential oil into the essential oil holder
A2 as shown in gure B1. Before using an y essential oils, please ask the vendor or
an expert about its eects and correct dosage. Do not add anything other than
essential oils to the essential oil holder A2 . After adding essential oil, close the
essential oil holder A2 , see gure B2 .
5. Place the nozzle A1 into the steam outlet A3 .
USING THE HUMIDIFIER
1. Check that the humidier is correctly assembled. Connect the power cord to
a power socket. Turn the contr ol dial A11 clockwise to turn on the humidier. The
indicator A10 will be lit green. The humidier will star t producing cold steam within
a few moments. Ensure tha t during operation that the steam is not directed at
furniture or items sensitive to moisture . The steam exhaust dir ection can be set by
turning the nozzle A1 to the required angle.
2. Use the control dial A11 t o increase or decrease steam output intensity during
operation. Turn the control dial A11 clockwise to increase st eam output, turn it in
the opposite direction to reduce steam output. If you ll the wat er tank A4 up to the
edge, the expected operating time is up to 16 hours with the steam output set to
maximum intensity.
Attention:
If the humidier was transported at a temperature below the freezing
point, rst put it into room temperatur e and wait approx. 30 minutes before
turning it on.
Use the humidier at an ambient temperature of 5 to 40 °C and a t arelative
humidity of up to 60 %. In the event that the ambient temperature falls
below 0 °C, turn the humidier o and remove the wat er inside the water
tank A4 and the water holder A6 , to prevent it fr om being damaged.
Do not lift the water tank A4 out of the base unit A9 or touch the nebulizer
A8 while the humidier is running. For the ev ent that the water tank A4 is
removed during operation, the humidier is equipped with a protective
automatic shut o function.
3. If the water level in the water holder A6 runs low , the indicator A10 will be lit red and
the humidier will automatically stop producing steam. This is a safety function to
prevent the nebulizer A8 from being damaged .
If necessary, ll up the water ac cording to the instructions in point 2 and 3 in chapter
Operating location of the humidier , its assembly and lling the water tank. T hen
you can start the humidier again.
4. T o turn o the humidier, turn the control dial A11 anticlockwise all the way . The
indicator A10 will turn o. Disconnect the humidier from the power socket and
clean it out according to the instructions contained in the chapter Cleaning and
maintenance.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
■ Before cleaning the humidier , turn it o and disconnect it from the power socket.
