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, contact 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 the manufacturer (see Care Products).

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: www.honeywell.com/yourhome.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Natural Cool Moisture™ System

The fan pulls dry air through a wet filter and releases invisible moisture into the

air. 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.

The Honeywell®exclusive Automatic Moisture Balance System™ increases

moisture output when the air is dry and lowers the moisture output when

the humidity level is high. This automatically helps to adjust the output for

maximum comfort and helps prevent condensation.

INTRODUCTION

HU4075.01 HCM890/890C OM Eng 6/14/01 3:07 PM Page 3

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 (Fig. 1).

• Place the humidifier on a water-resistant surface, as water can damage

furniture and some flooring. Honeywell will not accept responsibility for

property damage caused by water spillage.

• Remove the water tank by grasping the handle and pulling straight up

(Fig. 1).

• Lift up on the Motor Housing to remove and set aside (Fig. 2). Remove the

Natural Cool Moisture™ filter from the base before filling the unit with

water. Soak in a sink full of cool water to help reduce mineral build up and

place back in the humidifier while wet. DO NOT SQUEEZE OR WRING

OUT THE NATURAL COOL MOISTURE™ FILTER. To help extend the life of

your filter repeat this step each time you fill your humidifier.

• Turn the water tank upside down so that the fill cap is facing up; unscrew

the fill cap by turning it counter-clockwise and set aside.

• Fill the water tank with COOL tap water (Fig. 3). Distilled water is not

necessary as the water is filtered by the Natural Cool Moisture™ filter.

DO NOT USE HOT WATER. Doing so may damage the humidifier.

• Replace the fill cap by turning it clockwise . DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.

Turn the water tank right-side up.

NOTE: WHEN CARRYING THE FILLED WATER TANK, PLEASE USE THE HANDLE

AND PLACE YOUR OTHER HAND UNDER THE TANK FOR ADDITIONAL

SUPPORT.

• Place the Motor Housing back onto Rinse-to-Clean™ Base.

• Once the filled tank has been positioned, do not attempt to move the

humidifier. If it has to be moved, unplug the humidifier and remove the

water tank first.

NOTE: DO NOT POUR WATER INTO THE GRILL ON THE TOP OF THE MOTOR

HOUSING. DOING SO MAY DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER OR CAUSE

PERSONAL INJURY.

CAUTION: DO NOT PLUG IN THE HUMIDIFIER WITH WET HANDS AS AN

ELECTRIC SHOCK COULD OCCUR.

POWER

• With the power switch in the OFF position, plug the filled humidifier into a

polarized 120V outlet. DO NOT FORCE THE POLARIZED PLUG INTO THE

OUTLET; it will only fit one way.

HUMIDITY CONTROL

1. Set the fan speed control to the desired position

(Fig. 4).

HIGH: For fast humidifying

LOW: For quieter operation

NOTE: The length of time your humidifier runs will

vary depending on the quality of construction

and insulation of your room and house, as well as the fan speed.

2. Turn the humidifier OFF if the humidity level feels too moist or you notice

condensation forming on the walls and/or windows.

ALWAYS be sure to empty any unused water in the Rinse-to-Clean™ Base

and/or Water Tank each time you refill the water tank or finish using the

humidifier.

WEEKLY CLEANING

HU4075.01 HCM890/890C OM Eng 6/14/01 3:07 PM Page 6

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

FILTER WITH ANY CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS, DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE

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 it back in the humidifier wet.

There are many steps you can take each time you fill your humidifier to make

sure you get the most life out of our Natural Cool Moisture™ filter.

1.To prevent mineral deposits use DuraFree™ Humidifier Descaler Water

Softener, part no. AC817, each time the Water Tank is refilled.

2.Treat the Natural Cool Moisture™ filter with care. DO NOT squeeze or wring

it out, DO NOT clean the filter using any chemical solution.

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 impair the humidifier’s performance.

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

PROLONGING THE LIFE OF THE FILTER AND

MAINTAINING A CLEAN HUMIDIFIER

HU4075.01 HCM890/890C OM Eng 6/14/01 3:07 PM Page 7

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 Cool Moisture system and a fan disperses

invisible, moisture balanced air. There is no “mist” emitted. When operating

normally 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 moisture pad to be sure it is wet. If the 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 check 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.

• 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 filter; do not store with

a used filter.

• 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 a new filter and clean the humidifier.
