I kept this in a file because I buy used machines for my own use. It's from one of the major machine manufacturers. (I failed to label it for manufacturer.)
If you are using the device on multiple users, complete the following steps to clean and disinfect
the device before each new user.
a. Unplug the device before disinfecting.
b. Disinfect the outside of the device only. Use a cloth with one of the following cleaning
agents to clean the exterior of the device:
– Hydrogen Peroxide, 3%
– 100% Isopropyl Alchohol
– Vinegar, 5% acidity
– Water
– Chlorine bleach, household, 5.25% Sodium Hypochloride, 1 to 5 part reduction with water.
c. Replace the air filter
d. Allow the device to dry completely before plugging in the power cord
That's for the machine itself. The humidifier tank should be removed and washed in dish soap. If there are mineral deposits, use a vinegar/water solution as per a coffee pot cleaning instructions.
