You should be able to get a higher humidity rate at normal settings. If you want high humidity above 40% that should be easily done with the high speed operation. The unit may need a good internal cleaning, and use a Vinegar solution to clear any Calcium or other mineral deposits from the misting ports and misting elements. You must use only Distilled or Filtered water, not tap water.

That stands for "change filter."

It means Change Filter.

However, assuming that you have done that in the recent past, you probably want to know more. I'm not sure how this actually works (that is why it shows CF). I saw it for the first time after 2 or 3 years of using my humidifier. (And I had just changed the filter a week or so previously).

You may have to turn the unit off/on or even unplug it to clear the message, then it should operate normally.

Filters need to be changed regularly depending on environment may have to change more often.

These systems can be very troublesome. It is possible that you are having mineral buildup in your system from the water supply. You can try adding 1/4 cup vinegar to your water to help clean away deposits. See if that helps .

I had the manual..phamplet and didn
t know I had it It was attached to the bill.........it's so small, you don't think it's anything..but it's the manual!

First, clean or replace the filter. Next, mix a very weak solution (40:1 ratio) of bleach and water to fill the unit. the bleach will kill any bacteria that could be causing the odor, but NOT harm anyone, The filter will take care of any hard water issues. Just don't make the mistake of thinking "If a weak solution is good, a strong one is better". NOT TRUE. Stay with the 40:1 mix unless you like breathing bleach. (Yuk) Note: It may take a couple of days for the odor to go away.

Per the owner's manual, you simply unplug your device for 30 seconds. Upon plugging it back in, the CF notification should be cleared.

This assumes you have also changed the filter, of course.
