6. Cleaning, Care and Maintenance
– Remove the filter, which protects the fan against dust and dirt, from time to time
and clean it.
– After several hours of operation, some droplets of condensation will have formed
at the nozzle. That is normal and not a malfunction.
Please note: Remove fluid droplets at the nozzle only when the machine has com-
pletely cooled off. During operation the nozzle gets very hot!
– Do not let the Unique 2.1 run without any fluid as the pump will run dry.
– Check the state of the fluid filter [12] from time to time and clean or replace it when
necessary.
– PLEASE NOTE: The vaporizer of our machines does not have to be cleaned! Cleaners,
available on the market, can damage the vaporizer! We cannot grant warranty in
this case.
