Problem Possible solution
The water tank leaks.
•
Make sure that the water do not exceed the maximum level. Install the
top cover of the humidication lter tightly when adding water.
•
Make sure that the water tank is well assembled/connected every time
after you clean it.
•
If the problem persists, contact the Consumer Care Center in your
country.
There are some white
deposits on the
humidication lter.
•
The white deposits are called scale and they consist of minerals from
the water. Scale on the humidication lter aects the humidifying
performance, however it does not harm your health. Please follow the
cleaning instructions in the user manual.
The lter becomes
yellowish after some
time.
•
The yellow deposit is a natural eect of the lter material, and it has no
impact on humidication performance. Clean the humidication lter
frequently to remove the scale, and replace the humidication lter every
6 months.
The appliance produces
a strange smell.
•
Make sure there is water in the water tank.
•
Clean the humidication lter (see the chapter “Cleaning and
maintenance”).
•
The rst few times you use the appliance, it may produce a plastic smell.
This is normal. However, if the appliance produces a burnt smell even
if removing lters, contact your Philips dealer or an authorized Philips
service center. The lter may produce smell after being used for a while
because of the absorption of indoor gases. It’s recommended that you
reactivate the lter by putting it in ventilation place for repeated use. If
odor still exists, replace the lter.
I do not see visible
mist coming out of
the humidier. Is it
working?
•
When mist is very ne, it is invisible. This humidier has a NanoCloud
humidication technology, which produces healthy humid air from the
outlet area without formation of water mist. Therefore, you cannot see
the mist.
The airow that comes
out of the air outlet is
signicantly weaker
than before.
•
The surface of the lter is dirty. Clean the surface of the lter (see the
chapter “Cleaning and maintenance”).
•
The target humidity is reached (see the chapter “Setting target
humidity”).
The air quality does not
improve, even though
the appliance has been
operating for a long
time.
•
Check if the packing material is removed from the lter.
•
The lter has not been placed in the appliance. Make sure that the lter
is properly installed.
•
Room size is large or the outdoor air quality is poor.
For optimum purication performance, please close the doors and
windows when operating the appliance.
•
There are indoor pollution resources. For instances, smoking, cooking,
incense, perfume or alcohol.
•
Filter reaches the end of life. Replace the lter with a new one.
