Quick-Clean after Each Use
Make sure to unplug your diffuser prior to cleaning.
When removing excess water from the water tank, pour from the rear of the diffuser to avoid spilling on the operating buttons.
Clean the inside of the water tank and the outside of the diffuser with a small amount of neutral detergent cotton cloth or a small foam brush. Avoid using any harsh cleaners on your diffuser.
Rinse and dry.
Use a Q-tip dipped in rubbing alcohol to wipe the ultrasonic mist chip found inside the water tank.
Deep Clean Every Month
Cleaning is a necessary step to ensure that oil residue doesn’t build up in your machine preventing it from working properly. Periodically, it is a good idea to run your diffuser through a cleaning cycle. If you use your unit every day, then running a cleaning cycle monthly is a good idea. To do so, do the following:
Fill your diffuser half way with clean water.
Add 10 drops of white vinegar.
Let the diffuser run for about 5 minutes to allow the water-vinegar mixture to disperse throughout the unit and clean it.
Drain the diffuser completely.
Using a cotton swab dipped in vinegar, clean the tight spots and corners of the diffuser.
Rinse with clean water.
Use a dry cloth to wipe the diffuser and dry it thoroughly
Avoid placing your diffuser in direct sunlight or near a fan
