OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
MODEL BCM655-CN
Your humidifier is equipped with a technologically
advanced Digital Humidistat. You can set the humidifier to
run continuously in manual mode or set the Digital
Humidistat to your desired humidity setting. The Digital
Humidistat will automatically turn the humidifier ON or
OFF, depending on the preset comfort level. The comfort
level ranges from 30% and 65% relative humidity.
NOTE: When setting the Digital Humidistat, there will be
a 2-minute delay before the unit turns on. This allows for
the most accurate humidity reading.
NOTE: DO NOT block air inlet or outlet.
Cord and Plug Installation Safety Instructions
NOTE: There is a delayed reaction in the motor designed
to prevent the motor from turning on and off frequently
due to changing humidity levels. There is a 2-minute
delay after the unit reaches it’s set humidity level before it
will turn on again. It may be longer if the humidity level
remains above the set humidity, but there will always be
at least a 2-minute delay when the humidity level reaches
the desired setting.
The length of cord used on this appliance was selected
to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping
over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an
approved extension cord may be used. The electrical
rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater
than the rating of the humidifier. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over
the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or accidentally tripped over.
MANUAL MODE INSTRUCTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions
By setting your humidifier to a specific humidity level, you
are actually also extending the run time. Since the unit
will turn on and off to maintain the set humidity level, less
water will be used, so you will need to fill the unit less
than you would on manual setting.
Question
• What are the variables that
affect run time?
Answer
The estimated run time for this humidifier is based on average
room conditions. The actual run time of your humidifier is
dependent on numerous variables such as:
