READ AND SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS HUMIDIFIER

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to

reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

1. Always place this humidifier on a firm, flat and level surface. This humidifier may

not work properly on an uneven surface.

2. Place this humidifier in an area where it is not accessible to children.

3. Do not place the humidifier near any heat sources such as stoves, radiators,

and heaters.

4. Before using the humidifier, check the power cord for any signs of damage. If

the cord is found to be damaged, DO NOT USE and return the humidifier to the

manufacturer under the warranty agreement for repair.

5. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce

the risk of shock, this plug is intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If

the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, con-

tact a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature.

6. To disconnect the humidifier, first turn controls to the OFF position, then grip the

plug and pull it from the wall outlet. Never pull by the cord.

7. A loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating

and a distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or

worn outlet.

8. The humidifier should always be unplugged and emptied when not in operation

or while being serviced or cleaned.

9. Never tilt or attempt to move the humidifier while it is operating or filled with

water. UNPLUG the humidifier before moving.

10. This humidifier requires regular cleaning. Refer to the CLEANING instructions

provided. Never clean the humidifier in any manner other than as instructed in

this manual.

11. Turn the humidifier OFF if the relative humidity exceeds 60%, or if you notice

moisture on the inside of your windows. For proper humidity reading use a

hygrometer, which is available in many hardware and department stores, or by

ordering one from Honeywell. (See CARE PRODUCTS.)

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for purchasing a Honeywell Natural Cool Moisture™

Humidifier. If you would like more information on our full line of

products, please visit our website at:

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Dry air is pulled through the Natural Cool Moisture™system and a quiet fan blows

out invisible, moisture-balanced air. Unwanted minerals from the water are collect-

ed inside the Natural Cool Moisture™filter. When the unit is running, you will not

see or feel a “mist”. You will know your humidifier is putting moisture into the air as

you watch the water level in your tank decrease throughout the day.

WHAT IS HEALTHSHIELD

™ ANTIMICROBIAL

?

Your Honeywell Natural Cool Moisture™filter has been designed using new

HealthShield™* technology which prevents surface growth and migration of mold,

fungus, algae and bacteria in the filter for its life - approximately one season. Keep

in mind, depending on your water quality, mineral deposits can still clog or discolor

the filter, affect its life and that of the humidifier.

MODEL - HCM-3060

Your humidifier is made up of these parts:

*HealthShield™is registered with the

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Moisture Control

HUMIDISTAT (MOISTURE CONTROL KNOB)

The Moisture Control Knob allows you to adjust and select the humidity level to your

personal preference. Your humidifier will turn on and off throughout the day and

night to maintain the desired humidity level you have selected.

SETTING THE MOISTURE CONTROL KNOB/HUMIDISTAT

First run the humidifier per the operation instruction with the Moisture Control knob

set at HIGH (Fig. 4).

•Let the humidifier run on high for at least one hour or until your room has reached

a comfortable humidity level.

•At this point, slowly turn your Moisture Control knob counter-clockwise until

the humidifier shuts off and the Desired Humidity light comes on (Fig. 5).

•Now that your Humidistat is set, the humidifier will automatically turn back on

when your room drops below your comfort setting and will

automatically turn off again when the setting is reached.

Turn the humidifier OFF if the humidity level feels too moist or you notice condensa-

tion forming on the walls and/or windows.

FEATURES

WEEKLY CLEANING

STEP ONE:

SCALE REMOVAL

BASE

1. Fill the Base with either:

•1 cup (8 ozs.) of undiluted white

vinegar or

•Use DuraRinse™Humidifier

Cleaner, part no. AC816, following

the instructions on the bottle.

2. Let solution stand for 20 minutes.

3. With the vinegar or DuraRinse™in

the Base clean all interior surfaces

with a soft cloth or brush to help

remove scales.

4. Rinse the Base thoroughly with

water to remove scale and cleaning

solution.

STEP TWO:

DISINFECTING

WATER TANK/BASE

1. Fill the Water Tank with:

•1 teaspoon of household bleach

and

•1 gallon of water

Pour some of this solution into the

Base.

2. Let solution stand for 20 minutes.

3. Rinse with water until the odor of

bleach is gone.

We recommend cleaning the humidifier once a week, more often if you have hard

water, notice a build-up of impurities or detect unpleasant odors.

Cleaning involves two steps SCALE REMOVAL and DISINFECTING. Be sure to

perform these in the proper order to avoid harmful chemical interactions.

•First, turn off and unplug the humidifier.

•Remove the Water Tanks, and Motor Housing.

•Remove the Natural Cool Moisture™filters from the

Base (Fig. 6).

•Discard any remaining water from the Base.

NOTE: REMOVE FILTERS BEFORE CLEANING.

Failure to remove filters during cleaning will destroy the filters.

NOTE: THE USE OF OTHER WATER TREATMENT PRODUCTS AND CHEMICALS MAY

CAUSE DETERIORATION OF THE FILTERS OR DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER, THEREBY

HINDERING THE HUMIDIFIER’S EFFECTIVENESS.

PROLONGING THE LIFE OF THE FILTERS AND

MAINTAINING A CLEAN HUMIDIFIER

NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE NATURAL COOL MOISTURE™FILTERS

WITH ANY CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS, DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE FILTERS.

•HealthShield™prevents the surface growth and migration of mold, fungus, algae,

and bacteria. It is normal for a filter to discolor from mineral build-up. This will

vary depending on water quality.

•If a Natural Cool Moisture™filter appears to be clogged by hard water or mineral

deposits, soak it in a sink full of cool water for 10 minutes. DO NOT SQUEEZE OR

WRING OUT THE NATURAL COOL MOISTURE™FILTER. Always place filters back

in the humidifier wet.

•To prevent mineral deposits use DuraFree™Humidifier Water Softener, part no.

AC817, each time the Water Tank is refilled.

•Treat the Natural Cool Moisture™filters with care. DO NOT squeeze or wring out.

DO NOT clean the filter using any chemical solution.

•Always purchase Honeywell Brand Natural Cool Moisture™filters as the fan

motor of this humidifier and the Natural Cool Moisture™filter are designed to

function efficiently as a set. Using any other filter could damage the motor or

reduce the humidifier’s performance.

•Be sure to empty water from the Water Tank and Base when not in use.

END-OF-THE-SEASON CARE AND STORAGE

•Follow WEEKLY CLEANING instructions when the humidifier will not be used for at

least one week or more, or at the end of the season.

•At the end of the season, remove and throw away the filters, however SAVE the

Filter Frames. Do not store with used filters.

•Dry the humidifier completely before storing. DO NOT store with water inside the

Base or Water Tank.

•Pack the unit in its original carton and store in a cool, dry location.

•Before next use, remember to install new filters and clean the humidifier.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Q: I hear the fan turning, but I don’t see any mist. Is my humidifier operating

properly?

A: Dry air is pulled through the Natural Cool Moisture™system and a fan disperses

invisible, moisture balanced air. There is no “mist”emitted. When operating nor-

mally you will feel only cool air coming from the unit. Monitor the water level in

your tank/base. If you notice a decrease in the Water Tank over 24 hours then

the unit is operating normally.

Q: My unit has been running for several hours. I hear the fan spinning, but I do not

notice the water level in the tank decreasing.

A: First, check the Natural Cool Moisture™filters to be sure they’re wet. If a pad

appears dry, remove it from the base and gently rinse under cool water.

Reposition wet filter in the base. You may also want to note the current moisture

level in your home. If the humidity level is over 60% the unit will not put out

much moisture as your air is already saturated.

Q: The humidifier is not running (the fan is not even spinning), but all (or some) of

the lights are on.

A: If the Desired Humidity light is ON: The Moisture Control knob may be set too

low. Moving the Moisture Control knob to the HIGH setting should restart the

unit.

Q: The humidistat was set according to the manual, but the humidifier never

seems to turn back on. Is something wrong?

A: The humidistat may be set too low. Moving the humidistat knob to the highest

setting should restart the unit. Reset the humidistat following the instructions

under FEATURES.

Q: The humidistat was set according to the manual, but the humidifier never

seems to turn off. Is something wrong?

A: The humidistat may be set too high. Reset the Moisture Control knob following

the instructions under FEATURES.

Q: My Natural Cool Moisture filter is Discoloring. Do I need a new one?

A: Probably not. Since your Natural Cool Moisture™filters have been made with

HealthShield™technology, the change indicates only a mineral deposit. Soak fil-

ters in a sink full of cool water for 10 minutes and place back in humidifier wet.

Some discoloration may remain but should not affect the humidifier’s performance.

Q: Water only seems to be draining from one tank, is this normal?

A: Yes, water may drain from one tank completely or partially before the second

tank starts to drain. This is normal and does not reduce the ability of the humidi-

fier to put out moisture.
