USB AIR HUMIDIFIER
Item no. 1194440
Intended use
This product helps to circulate the air and raise humidity (via water evaporation) in dry, enclosed rooms.
The power supply is provided via a USB port on a computer or a USB hub with a power adaptor. A separate
USB power adaptor that can deliver a current of at least 500 mA can also be used. If a USB power source is
not available, the USB air humidifier can be operated with batteries (4 x 1.5 V, type AAA) or corresponding
rechargeable batteries. The keypad on the top of the device can be used to turn the USB air humidifier on/
off, select one of two fan speeds and turn the humidifying function on/off.

• Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity,
moisture, flammable gases, vapours and solvents.
• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.
• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it from
any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can damage

• Never push objects into the safety grill of the USB air humidifier as this may cause injury. In
addition, the USB air humidifier may be damaged, invalidating the warranty/guarantee!
• When the USB air humidifier is in operation, small objects or hair may be drawn into the fan.
This presents a risk of injury.
• Never block the inlets and outlets, otherwise the device may overheat. Never attach any
decorations or similar objects to the USB air humidifier.
• Operate the USB air humidifier via a suitable power supply, e.g. a USB port on a computer,
a USB port on a USB hub with an individual power adaptor or a power adaptor with a USB
power socket.
• The power supply used must be sufficient when operating via battery (see "Technical data").
• Only connect the power adaptor to a normal mains socket connected to the public supply.
Before plugging in the power adaptor, check whether the voltage stated on the power adaptor
complies with the voltage of your electricity supplier.
• Never connect or disconnect power adaptors if your hands are wet.
• Never place the USB humidifier on or near electrical devices when it is filled with water.
• Ensure that the USB air humidifier is not tipped over when the water tank is full. Water may
run out.
• Never pour liquids over or next to the device. This is a fire hazard.
• Only use the device in temperate climates, not in tropical climates.
• Only use water with a temperature of no more than 40 °C to fill the water tank. Essential oils
must not be added to the water, nor is the use of solvents (aromatic hydrocarbons) permitted.
This may result in damage to the device.
b) (Rechargeable) batteries

of time to avoid damage through leaking. Leaking or damaged (rechargeable) batteries might
cause acid burns when in contact with skin, therefore use suitable protective gloves to handle
corrupted (rechargeable) batteries.
• (Rechargeable) batteries must be kept out of reach of children. Do not leave (rechargeable)
batteries lying around, as there is risk, that children or pets swallow them.
• All (rechargeable) batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing old and new
(rechargeable) batteries in the device can lead to (rechargeable) battery leakage and device
damage.
• (Rechargeable) batteries must not be dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into fire. Never
recharge non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of explosion!

Operating elements

Operation

a) Inserting batteries into the USB air humidifier
The USB air humidifier can be operated either with batteries/rechargeable batteries or a USB
power source. In principle, the device can be operated with rechargeable batteries. However,
due to the lower voltage of rechargeable batteries (rechargeable batteries = 1.2 V, conventional
batteries = 1.5 V), the batteries will run out faster and the performance of the device will drop.
1. Remove the battery compartment cover from the bottom of the USB humidifier.
2. Insert four AAA/Micro batteries in the battery compartment, ensuring that they are the right way up (pay
attention to the plus/+ and minus/- symbols).
3. Reseal the battery compartment.
b) Connecting the USB humidifier to a USB power supply
1. Connect the low voltage connector on the USB cable to the USB port on the air humidifier.
2. Connect the USB-A connector on the USB cable to a suitable power supply (e.g. a USB port on a
computer, a USB port on a USB hub with an individual power adaptor or a power adaptor with a USB
power socket).
The USB power supply takes precedence over battery power. When batteries are inserted in
the USB air humidifier and the USB cable is connected to a USB power source, the device
operates via USB only.
