Humidifier Operations
Your new Emerson humidifier is designed to
satisfy home humidity requirements through
the principle of evaporation of water into the air.
After water is added to the bottle and
positioned in the humidifier, the filters
begin to soak up the water and become
totally saturated in approximately 30 min-
utes. Air is drawn in from the rear of the
humidifier and through the filters by means
of one circulation fan. As air passes
through the filters, moisture is absorbed
into the air and then released through the
top of the humidifier. This moist air is
released in the form of vapor. No water
droplets will enter the home. All evapora-
tion into the air takes place in the humidifi-
er, which means that the residue left by
evaporating water is not passed into the
home, but remains in the filter.
CAUTION: Use only liquid EPA
Registered Bacteriostat available from
your local retail store or call
[phone] to order. Under no cir-
cumstances should you use water
treatment products for Roto belt or
Ultrasonic humidifiers.

CAUTION: Keep your humidifier clean.
While humidifiers do not cause colds,
some studies suggest that dirty humidi-
fiers can cause cold-like symptoms in
some people. To avoid this, clean your
humidifier weekly with cleaners specifi-
cally recommended for evaporative
humidifiers.
Assembly
Your new Emerson MoistAIR humidifier is
completely assembled for you to use.
Follow the instructions of this owner’s
manual for proper usage.
Locate nearest 120V A.C. wall socket in the
location desired, preferably on inside wall.
Plug in the electrical cord.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or
shock hazard, do not use extension
cords. Humidifier should be plugged
directly into a 120V A.C. outlet.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this
humidifier has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet. Do not change the
plug in any way.
