SET UP
NOTE: We recommend that the humidifier be disinfected prior to first use.
Please see CLEANING instructions.
• Select a firm, level, flat location — at least six inches (15 cm) from any wall
for proper air flow and convenient to an electrical outlet (Fig. 1).
Place vaporizer where it is out of the reach of children. Make sure cord is
not in an area where it can be tripped over or pulled on. Be sure that the
steam outlet is pointed away from any person.
• Place the vaporizer on a water-resistant surface, as water can damage
®
furniture and some flooring. Duracraft will not accept responsibility for
property damage caused by water spillage.

FILLING
1. To remove the Steam Assembly, hold the Base and turn the Steam Assembly
counter-clockwise then pull up.
2. Fill the Base with COOL tap water to the indent marked “Full Level” located on
the back of the unit (Fig. 2). DO NOT USE HOT WATER. Doing so may
damage the vaporizer.
3. Replace the Steam Assembly back onto the Base. Turn it clockwise
to lock in place. Once the Steam Assembly has been positioned, do not
attempt to move vaporizer. If it has to be moved, unplug it and empty the
Base first.
CAUTION: DO NOT PLUG IN THE HUMIDIFIER WITH WET HANDS AS AN
ELECTRIC SHOCK COULD OCCUR.
4. Plug the filled vaporizer into a polarized 120V outlet. DO NOT FORCE THE
POLARIZED PLUG INTO THE OUTLET; it will only fit one way.

OPERATION
IMPORTANT: When your vaporizer is plugged in, it is ON - however it will take
time (20-25 minutes) for the vaporizer to heat the water and produce steam.
The heating process is silent, so the vaporizer will not make any noise until
the water comes to a boil, at which time you may hear a gentle bubbling or
boiling sound.
1. If the Vaporizer does not start producing steam within 25 minutes…
Your water’s mineral content is too low to allow for electrical current flow and
the water will not come to a boil.
• Unplug and remove the Steam Assembly.
• Add 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda per gallon of water (or 1 packet of
Duracraft’s DuraStart following the directions on the package) to help the
water come to a boil. Be sure to thoroughly mix the Baking Soda or
DuraStart with the water in the Base.
NOTE: Adding too much baking soda or DuraStart can cause boiling and/or
hot water spurting, which may cause burns.
2. If the Vaporizer boils excessively, spurts hot water or blows fuses…
Your water’s mineral content is too high.
• Make sure no chemicals have been added to the water. If any chemicals
were added, turn off and unplug the vaporizer. Empty Base and refill with
tap water only.
• If no chemicals have been added, turn off and unplug the vaporizer.
CLean per the cleaning instructions.
• Refill using 1/2 tap water and 1/2 distilled water, which will lower the
mineral content of your water and prevent excessive boiling.
• When you are finished using the vaporizer, unplug it and clean after
each use.
• ALWAYS be sure to discard any unused water in the base before storing
or refilling.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
Q: I set up the vaporizer, but it isn’t making any noise. Is it working?
A: The heating process is silent, so the vaporizer will not make any noise until
the water comes to a boil (20-25 minutes), at which time you may hear a
bubbling or boiling sound.
Q: I used the vaporizer last night. When I went to refill it this morning, I
noticed black flecks in the base. Is this normal?
A: It is normal for mineral deposits to collect at the bottom of the Base. It may
appear as black flecks and should be rinsed out after every use. This is nor-
mal and will not affect the operation of the vaporizer if cleaned out daily.
Q: My vaporizer has been plugged in for 30 minutes and still is not
producing steam, what’s wrong?
A: It means that your water’s mineral content is too low to allow for electrical
current flow and the water will not come to a boil.
• Unplug and remove the Heating Assembly
• Add 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda per gallon of water (or 1 packet of
Duracraft’s DuraStart following the directions on the package) to help the
water come to a boil. Be sure to thoroughly mix the Baking Soda or
DuraStart with the water in the Base.
Q: My vaporizer is over boiling and spurting hot water, what’s wrong?
A: It means that your water’s mineral content is too high.
• Make sure no chemicals have been added to the water. If any chemicals
were added, turn off and unplug the vaporizer. Empty the water tank and
refill with tap water only.
• If no chemicals have been added, turn off and unplug the vaporizer.
Clean per the cleaning instructions.
• Refill using 1/2 tap water and 1/2 distilled water, which lower the
mineral content of your water and prevent excessive boiling.
