4. Carry the tank back to the humidifier. Turn
the tank upright and place it on the hu-
midifier. Be sure that the tank is seated
properly in the base. If the tank is properly
located on the base, you will see air bubbles
flowing up into the tank.
3. Turn the tank upside down and unscrew the

Cleaning The Humidifier And The Water Tank
in a location where it can drip dry while
you clean the other parts of your humidifier.
Many regions have hard water with high
concentrations of minerals. When water
evaporates from The Care Free® Humidifier Plus
Evaporative Humidifier, minerals may be left
behind. These minerals can form a hard white
scale which can be removed by following the
cleaning instructions. The frequency of
cleaning due to mineral build up can vary
depending upon the quality of water you
may have.
5. Remove the water tank from the base and
empty any water that is left in the tank.
Soak the base in a mixture of one (1) gal-
lon of water and eight (8) ounces of vin-
egar for 20 minutes.
6. After soaking, wipe the base with a soft
cloth or sponge to remove any mineral
build up. Rinse with clean water several
times. If you are planning on storing the
humidifier, be sure the base is com-
pletely dry.
Refer to Figure 1 for part names.
1. Turn the humidifier ‘OFF’ and unplug the
unit.
2. Lift the main housing and remove the wa-
ter dispersion tray and the PermaWick™
Filters. The motor is attached to the main
housing. Do not place the motor near
water. Do not use a wet towel on the
motor or motor housing as electrical
shock may occur.
7. Fill the water tank with one (1) gallon of
water and eight ounces of undiluted white
vinegar. Replace the tank cap and shake
the tank vigorously until all interior sur-
faces of the tank have been exposed to the
water/vinegar mixture.
8. Empty the tank of the water/vinegar mix-
ture. Rinse it several times with clean water
and then replace the tank cap. If you are
planning on storing the humidifier, dry it
inside and out, leaving the cap off to allow
the tank to completely dry. Continue to
clean the other parts of your humidifier.
3. The PermaWick™ Filter should be cleaned
in a vinegar and water solution to remove
any mineral buildup. Place in a solution of
one (1) gallon of water and eight (8) ounces
of undiluted white vinegar. Allow the filter
to soak for 20 minutes.
4. After soaking, rinse it several times with
clean water. Place the PermaWick™ Filter
9. Remove the water diffuser cap and sponge.
Rinse the sponge in clean water to remove
any debris. If the sponge contains hard
