How to replace the battery

Please follow the instructions in the video.

Gurgling noise

A gurgling noise can be caused by two different issues.

Out of the box

This can usually be resolved by running approximately 2 to 4 tanks of water through the machine when in Humidifier mode.

Machine settling

This may be caused by the machine settling and will pass with time.

No fault with the machine

There is no fault with the machine, the noise can sometimes be heard when the ultrasonic transducer produces mist inside the base of your machine.

This noise is most noticeable when the machine is new, but the noise will reduce in volume once approximately 3-4 full tanks of water have been run through the machine.

This process may need to be repeated up to 3 times.

F2

An F2 message indicates an issue with the UV-C emitter.

Turn off & unplug the machine, leave it for 60 seconds and then retest.

This process may need to be repeated up to 3 times.

F3

A F3 failure message means the appliance is too cold.

The appliance will operate when it is above 5°C (41°F).

If your machine displays an error code F3, please turn the power off and unplug the machine for 60 seconds.

Increase room temperature to 5°C or above before restarting machine.

Plug the machine back in and retest.

Please repeat this process up to 3 times if your machine continues to display an error code.

This process may need to be repeated up to 3 times.

F5

Turn off & unplug the machine, leave it for 60 seconds and then retest.

This process may need to be repeated up to 3 times.

Humidifier mode

Adjust the humidity control to 70%.

Adjust the airflow to the lowest setting.

It is easier to see the mist when the machine is in front of a dark background.

If no mist is visible then clear the amplifier of any obstructions.

If the machine is in automatic mode then it may shut off

The appliance selects a comfortable humidity for the room, based on environmental factors such as current humidity level and air temperature.

When the room reaches the appropriate humidity level the appliance will switch itself ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’ as necessary to maintain that level. The fan will remain running when the target humidity has been reached.

Clear the loop amplifier

Remove the loop amplifier and press the button at the front of the loop.

Lift the loop off the machine and pull the amp surround off the loop, one end at a time.

Wipe both parts with a damp cloth.

WARNING: Do not clean any part in a dishwasher.

Reattach the surround and line up the surround with the amp.

Push the surround firmly until it clicks into place.

Turn on and test the machine.

Airflow

Switch off the humidity and set the fan speed to 10.

You will see the fan speed changing on the digital display.

Clean the machine

Clean the loop amplifier with a microfiber , lint-free cloth.

Ensure there is no dust or debris blocking the openings.

Clear any dust or debris away from the inlet vents at the base of the machine.

Clear the amplifier

Press the button at the front of the loop amplifier.

Lift the amplifier from the machine.

Pull the amp surround off the loop, one end at a time.

Weekly maintenance

Please follow the steps in the video.

For a step by step guide, please select step by step.

Weekly maintenance

Wipe the loop and inlets:

Wipe over air loop amplifier, paying close attention to the air gaps.

Wipe with a lint-free microfiber cloth.

Clean the tank

Empty the water tank.

Rinse and wipe over all surfaces.

Repeat if necessary.

Empty the trough

Tip the contents of the trough into the sink

Wipe away any spillages

Clean the base

WARNING: Do not rinse under the tap or put in the dishwasher.

While not dangerous, care should be taken to avoid water entering the inlets.

Wipe the exterior with a lint free microfiber cloth.

Check the machine

If the power button flashes 3 times when switching on check that the machine has been assembled correctly.

Check that the tank is sat flush onto the Main body, when fitting the loop amplifier make sure that it clicks into place securely.

Quick start guide

Ensure the base is on a level surface, otherwise the machine will not operate.

Unscrew the cap and fill the tank to the top.

Replace the cap and screw until hand tight.

Carry by the handle.

Place the tank on top of the base.

Step 2

Place the loop amplifier on top of the tank.

Push down until you hear a click.

Remote control docks magnetically.

Attach the remote control to the top of the machine with the buttons facing down.

Step 3

Plug into the socket and base.

A small blue LED on the back of the machine lights up to confirm that the machine has power.

Step 4

Switch ‘ON’.

The water treatment procedure automatically starts.

Water passes over a UV-C emitter to ensure that it is 99.9% bacteria-free before misting commences.

This takes approximately 3 minutes.

During this time humidity targets can be set and fan mode can be switched ON.

After 3 minutes the machine will start to humidify.

The display will show the target humidity setting.

Check the electrics

Ensure the machine is plugged in and the socket is switched on.

On the rear of the machine, just beneath where the power cord plugs in is a power indicator light that should illuminate when the machine is plugged in.

Press the ON/OFF button again to start the machine.

If the machine cuts out or will not switch on, please turn it off at the socket and remove the plug.

Wait 10 seconds, plug the machine back in and ensure the socket is switched on.

Press the ON/OFF button again to start the machine.

Test socket

Please try another socket.

Is the machine tilted?

The machine will not operate if tilted by over 5 degrees and the display will show a 'tilted' graphic.

Make sure it is on a level surface and clear up any spillage.

The machine will cut out when the humidity target is reached.

Check the tank

The machine will cut out if the tank is empty.

The blue LED surrounding the Standby ON/OFF button will remain solid as the water level changes.

When the tank is empty, an animation sequence appears.

If the tank is empty, switch off the machine and refill.

Ensure the tank is full.

Refill the tank

Turn the machine off.

Unplug the appliance and push the button to unlock.

Lift the loop amplifier away from the tank.

Lift the tank away from the base.

Remove the cap and fill the tank (no other part) to the top with cold tap water.

Replace the cap.

Replace the tank and ensure it is fitted flush.

When replacing the loop ensure it 'clicks' into place securely.

Use the handle for easier handling.

Please be aware that water drips may be present on the underside of the tank when removed. If the power button on the machine flashes three times this may indicate that the machine has been reassembled incorrectly.

Water treatment procedure

While the AM10 is in humidifier mode, it constantly treats the water it emits, keeping it hygienic.

When the machine is first switched on, it will begin this water treatment procedure, displaying this animation on the LCD.

After 3 minutes the machine will begin to humidify the room.

It is recommended that a waterproof mat or pad is placed under the machine.

WARNING: Do not place the machine in an area where it is accessible to children.

If the machine is tilted, the blue LED surrounding the Standby ON/OFF button will flash if the base is not level.

When the machine is tilted by over 5° the display will show a 'tilted' graphic.

If the machine has been tilted ensure it is level and to clear up any spillage. If the machine is not levelled after 15 minute, it will switch 'OFF'.

Where to position your machine

For the best performance, place on the floor, in the corner of the room, at least 1m from any wall and facing into the center of the room.

Always place the machine on a firm, flat, level surface, otherwise the machine will not operate.

Consider placing near to air conditioning or heating devices to circulate air effectively.

Do not place the machine underneath overhanging surfaces.

To avoid a cooling effect while humidifying, the unit should be at least 1m from any people.

WARNING: Do not place the machine on a rug, carpet, wooden flooring, or any other surface that may be damaged by exposure to water or moisture. Do not place the machine in an area where it is accessible to children.
