These will interfere with the proper operation of your unit and may affect its appearance. · DO NOT use sharp or metal objects to clean mineral deposits in the reservoir. Contact with sharp objects can result in damage to the plastic. · Mineral deposits should be soaked for up to 20 minutes in Bionaire® "Clean-Away" solution or in plain vinegar and water to help with their removal. · NEVER mix "Clean-Away" solution with any other fluid! · DO NOT clean any part of your humidifier in the dishwasher.
