This vaporizer is warranted against defective
materials and workmanship. See carton for
warranty period. Any defective part will be
replaced at no charge if it has not been tampered
with and appliance has been used according
to our printed directions. Warranty gives you
specific legal rights; you may have other
rights which vary from state to state.
If you experience unsatisfactory operation, first
follow Troubleshooting and Care and Cleaning
Instructions. If the unit still does not operate
satisfactorily, call our Consumer Service
Department at 1-800-477-0457, write to Vaporizer
Service Department, P.O. Box 698, Hudson, NY
12534, or email consumerservice@kaz.com
explaining just how the vaporizer is operating.
Specify model number. Our Consumer Service
Representative will provide further instructions
on how to correct the trouble yourself, or will
ask you to return the steam unit for repair or
replacement.
1. UNRAVEL CORD BEFORE USE. Failure to do so could
cause overheating and possible fire hazard.
Always unplug cord from electrical outlet before
removing steam unit or when not in use. Allow
vaporizer to cool before handling.
2. FILL WATER CONTAINER. Remove steam unit.
Fill container with tap water to
WATER LEVEL
MARKING
on bowl. DO NOT OVERFILL. (Figure A)
3. ADD SALT. For tap water of low or moderate mineral
content, ADD 4 TO 5 PINCHES (1/8 teaspoon) of
ordinary table salt to the water and mix thoroughly.
Salt has no effect on the purity of the steam or
medication.
CAUTION: Too much salt can cause excessive
boiling or blown fuse.
4. REPLACE STEAM UNIT. Hold down steam unit for ten
seconds to allow water to enter the housing and
seat it properly in water container. If steam unit
floats, container is overfilled.
(Figure C)
5. PLACE VAPORIZER IN A SAFE POSITION. Vaporizer
should always be placed on a firm, flat surface at
least four feet away from bedside and out of the
reach of patient and children. Be sure the vaporizer
is in a stable position and power cord is out of the
way to prevent vaporizer from being upset or tipped
over.
Protect floor, rug or furniture by placing the
vaporizer on a non-metallic, waterproof,
heat-resistant surface.
CAUTION: Do not direct steam flow directly at
patient, walls or furniture. You will still obtain desired
level of humidity. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF
CHILDREN. STEAM CAN CAUSE BURNS.
6. VAPORIZER MEDICATIONS. For best results fill the
medication cup on the steam unit (located directly
below and in front of the steam outlet) with one
tablespoon of KAZ INHALANT. (Figure D)
If you use Vicks VapoSteam
®
follow directions
on the VapoSteam
®
package. Please pay careful
attention to the added cleaning directions in
the
Daily Maintenance and Care and Cleaning
sections.
NOTE: Vicks VapoSteam
®
should be put
directly into the vaporizer water container
(see VapoSteam
®
package directions); it
should not be placed in the medication cup.
7. PLUG IN. Plug power cord into 110-120
Volts AC outlet in good condition fused for
at least 15 Amps.
Do not use with exten-
sion cords.
This product has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other) as a safety feature.
This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
DO
NOT
ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT THIS SAFETY
FEATURE.
Vaporizer will produce a gentle flow of
steam within a few minutes.
If steaming
does not start within ten minutes, you
may need to add salt. Please see the
Troubleshooting checklist. The vaporizer
will automatically stop producing steam
when water has reached minimum level
(about 3/4 inch from bottom of container).
The night-light will remain on, indicating
that the vaporizer is plugged in.
ALWAYS
unplug steam unit and allow to cool before
removing from water container.
Under conditions of rapid boiling and
near the end of each operation, steam may
emerge from SAFETY VENTS (above and
on both sides of the steam vent). This
condition is normal, preventing overboiling
by relieving steam pressure.
(Figure E)
Do not lift or move vaporizer while
it is in use.
8. USE FRESH WATER AND MEDICATION each
time vaporizer is used.
9. AFTER EACH USE. Empty any unused water
from the water container. Shake container
gently back and forth to remove any
remaining water. Rinse container thorough-
ly, drain and wipe with a dry, clean cloth.
NOTE: All medicinal ingredients of Kaz
Inhalant are released in use, leaving only
the mineral oil base in medication cup.
This should be emptied and cleaned with
a piece of cotton.
NOTE: If you are using Vicks VapoSteam®
be sure any residue in water container
is thoroughly cleaned. Refer to Care and
Cleaning section.
IMPORTANT: To maintain proper operation
of your vaporizer, be sure to follow
Care
and Cleaning Instructions.

Troubleshooting: What To Do If…
Figure C
Figure B
Figure D
Figure E
A.
Vaporizer does not operate or steams
too slowly:
1.
Make sure vaporizer is plugged in and the
night-light is lit.
If the night-light is not on, you may have a
blown fuse, tripped circuit breaker or a
defective electrical outlet. Try a different
outlet. You may want to contact an
electrician to check the potentially
defective outlet.
2.
The fault may be the low mineral content
of the water in your area.
Unplug vaporizer from electrical outlet and
allow to cool. Remove steam unit allow-
ing hot water to first dribble out, add one
or two PINCHES of salt to the water and
mix thoroughly. Replace the steam unit
and plug in vaporizer. It should steam with-
in 5 minutes. Add salt only by the PINCH,
since too much salt can cause excessive
boiling or blowing of fuse.
3.
If vaporizer has been operating normally
and is now failing to steam, it needs
to be cleaned. See the Weekly
Maintenance section of
Care and
Cleaning Instructions.
B.
Vaporizer operates too fast, fuse blows:
Overboiling, flickering lights, blown fuse or
heavy steam flow from Safety Vents generally
indicates one of the following causes...
1.
Too much salt was added to the water.
To correct the condition: Disconnect vapor-
izer from electrical outlet and allow to cool.
Pour out water and rinse container. Rinse
steam unit as described in Weekly
Maintenance section of
Care and
Cleaning Instructions. Refill with fresh
water but DO NOT ADD SALT. If vaporiz-
er now does not operate or steams too
slowly, see above directions in section A.
2.
You live in a hard water area and
minerals in the tap water are causing
the vaporizer to steam too rapidly.
To correct the condition: Disconnect vapor-
izer from electrical outlet and allow to cool.
Remove steam unit allowing hot water to
first dribble out, pour out water and rinse
container. Rinse steam unit as described
in Weekly Maintenance section of
Care
and Cleaning Instructions. Refill with fresh
water but DO NOT ADD SALT.
If unit still steams too rapidly, use 1/2
distilled water and 1/2 tap water. Food
and drug stores usually stock distilled
water.
In hard water areas it is advisable to
clean the unit every few days in accor-
dance with the Weekly Maintenance
section of
Care and Cleaning Instructions.
C.
Vaporizer is making crackling/
buzzing/humming sounds or water
container is unusually hot:
1.
You may have added too much salt.
See section B above.
2.
You may live in a hard water area.
See section B above.
3.
This condition can happen when the water
level in the container is low. Disconnect
vaporizer from electrical outlet, allow to
cool, remove steam unit allowing hot
water to first dribble out. Fill container
with tap water to water level marking.
4.
This may be an indication your vaporizer
needs cleaning. Refer to the Weekly
Maintenance section of
Care and
Cleaning Instructions.
If you are still experiencing difficulty
in operating your vaporizer, please
call our Consumer Service
Department at 800-477-0457.
Special Notes
Discoloration/Black Particles
After use, the water residue in the bottom
of the container may contain black particles,
and, in some areas the water and the bottom
of container may discolor. These conditions
are normal and do not affect the purity of the
steam or medication. The container is easily
cleaned with soap and water. Rinse and dry
the container after cleaning.
Ventilation
When vaporizer is used in closed or small
rooms, check periodically for proper ventila-
tion, as excessive humidity can cause con-
densation stains on walls.
Warning
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Carefully supervise children when the vapor-
izer is operating, especially infants and tod-
dlers. Vaporizers produce hot steam that
can cause serious burns.
