End-Of-Season Maintenance/Storage:

the vaporizer will not be used for several days. Be sure to dry all

parts and store in a cool, dry location. DO NOT STORE UNIT

WITH WATER INSIDE.

IMPORTANT! For the most effective and safe use of your vaporizer, please READ

AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS ... especially those regarding the addition of salt

to the water. In “soft water” areas, salt must be added to water to generate steam.

In “hard water” areas, the vaporizer may operate without the addition of salt.

WARNING: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

We recognize that many of our customers use vaporizers in homes with young

children. Carefully supervise your children when using a vaporizer, especially

crawling infants and toddlers. Please be sure to take the time to instruct them

that a vaporizer is not a toy....it is a serious medical device that produces hot

steam and could cause severe burns and injuries if they do not stay away from it.

Vaporizer should always be placed on a firm, flat, waterproof surface at least four feet

away from bedside and out of reach of patient and children. Be sure the vaporizer is

in a stable position and power cord is out of the way to prevent vaporizer from being

upset or tipped over. Protect floor, rug or furniture by placing the vaporizer on a

non-metallic, waterproof, heat-resistant surface.

ADDING SALT FOR STEAM FLOW: Steam output depends directly

on the mineral content of the water and the amount of salt you

add. For the vaporizer to operate in areas of low or moderate

mineral-content water, 4 TO 5 PINCHES OF SALT (1/8 teaspoon)

MUST BE ADDED TO THE WATER AND MIXED THOROUGHLY.

If an adequate steam flow is not obtained after ten minutes, add

another PINCH or two as needed, mix thoroughly.

CAUTION:

Add salt only by the PINCH, since too much salt can cause

excessive boiling, a blown fuse or

tripped circuit breaker.

If you live in a “hard-water” area, the

vaporizer may operate well without

salt additive. The salt and other miner-

als in your water remain inside the

vaporizer and do not affect the purity

of the steam.

USE FINGER GRIPS when handling

steam unit, grasping from the rear of

outer cap. See

Figure C on next page.

Do not move vaporizer while in use.
