Humidifier leaks water around the base.

Safety first: Unplug the humidifier and wipe up any spilled water.

• Inspect tank: Remove the tank, fill it over a sink, and check for leaks or drips from seams or the cap area.
• Check gasket and cap: Inspect the rubber gasket on the tank cap or valve. Ensure it is seated properly and not cracked or hardened.
• Inspect base: Look for cracks in the base reservoir where water collects.
• Do not overfill: Fill only to the indicated maximum level.
• Replace parts: Replace a cracked tank or worn gasket. If the base is cracked, replacement of the base assembly or entire unit may be required.
