Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite FAQ

Overview

1.Q: What is a humidifier?

A: A humidifier is a household appliance that can increase the humidity of a room. A humidifier can humidify a designated room, or it can be connected to a boiler or central air conditioning system to humidify the entire building. According to the theory of heat and moisture exchange, humidifiers are divided into the following two types in practical engineering:
1. Iso-enthalpy humidifier: that is to use water to absorb the sensible heat of air for evaporative humidification, and its change on the enthalpy and wet map is an approximate iso-enthalpy process. (humidity increases, temperature drops), ultrasonic humidifiers belong to isenthalpic humidification.
2. Isothermal humidifier: that is, the use of heat energy to convert liquid water into steam and mix with air for humidification, and its changes in enthalpy and hygrogram are approximate isothermal processes. (Humidity increases, temperature does not change).
Humidifiers can be divided into three major categories: industrial humidifiers, commercial humidifiers and household humidifiers.
2. Q: Are humidifiers harmful to the human body?
A: The risk of humidifiers is manifested in the humidity content in the air after use. Excessive humidity will affect the body. Indoor air humidification can be done by sprinkling water, placing water basins, etc., but the most convenient way is to use a humidifier.
When the humidifier is used, it must be cleaned regularly, otherwise the microorganisms such as mold in the humidifier will enter the air with the vapor and then enter the respiratory tract of the person, and it is easy to suffer from humidifier pneumonia. In addition, the humidity of the air is not as high as possible. In winter, the human body feels more comfortable humidity is about 50%. If the air humidity is too high, people will feel chest tightness and difficulty breathing, so it is better to humidify moderately.
3. Q: What are the benefits of humidifiers?
A:
1. Proper humidification in the living room can effectively keep the wooden furniture from being deformed, and the walls just brushed without cracking;
2. Turn on the humidifier when cutting onions to avoid tears;
3. Reduce indoor dust and static electricity.

2. Put the humidifier in a slightly higher position to increase the fluidity of the air, which can also prevent the ground from being too wet;
3. Do not overfill the water, and the maximum should not exceed the maximum water level;
4. If water leakage is confirmed, please check whether the humidifier is placed unevenly;
5. If this problem still occurs after use, you can apply for after-sales inspection.
Note: The wrong way to clean the base, add water, and the accumulation of water at the mist outlet may cause water leakage at the joints of the water tank or water leakage at the base.

2. For scale, you can use white vinegar or citric acid (dissolves the scale) into the sink, dissolve the scale and then wash it with water;
3. Check whether the water in the water tank is sufficient, and the water surface should exceed the water level sensor switch.
Note:
1. The light is on, but there is no wind and no fog: the water level in the base is too high, just pour out some of the water in the base and restart the machine.
2. The light is off, no wind and no fog: check whether the power supply is connected. If it still cannot work after connecting the power supply, after-sales inspection is required.
3. Q: Is Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite difficult to clean?
A: Gently scrub the sink with a soft brush when cleaning. Wipe the atomizer with a soft cloth or cotton swab, shake it a few times after filling the water tank, and then pour it out.

4. Q: Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite does not respond when powered on, and the indicator light does not light up. What should I do?
A: If Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite does not respond when powered on, and the indicator light does not light up, do the following:
1. Check whether the socket is plugged in and whether the power is turned on;
2. Poor contact of the power switch will cause no response to power on;
3. It may be because the wires in the base are loose and fall off during transportation. It is recommended to apply for after-sales service.
5. Q: What should I do if the Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite status light does not light up?
A: 1. Check whether the socket is plugged in and whether the power is turned on;
2. Poor contact of the power switch will cause no response to power on;
3. It may be because the wires in the base are loose and fall off during transportation. It is recommended to apply for after-sales service.
6. Q: When Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite is used with an air purifier and a PM2.5 detector, it will cause the air purifier and the detector to display abnormal PM2.5. What should I do?
A: Since Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite will break up water into relatively small water mist particles, the diameter of water droplets is similar to that of various air dusts such as PM2.5, but it is the same for the particle sensor of Xiaomi air purifier, Mistakes smaller water droplet particles for airborne dust.
Therefore, in the automatic mode, when the purifier detects that the PM2.5 content in the air is high, it will run at a higher power, which is normal; the PM2.5 detector will also increase the value of PM2.5, which is normal. Happening.
It is recommended to use the air purifier and the humidifier as different as possible at the same time. If they must be used at the same time, try to keep the air purifier and the PM2.5 detector and the humidifier farther away or not in the same room.
This is not a quality issue, nor is it a product issue. Most of the current sensor solutions will cause this situation. When using it, try not to use it at the same time or use it at a long distance.
7. Q: Is it normal to see water on the base when you lift the Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite water tank?
A: The water in the water tank needs to flow into the base to be dispersed by ultrasonic waves, which is a normal working state.
8. Q: Is it normal that there is water in the Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite after opening the machine?
A: The reason why Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite has a small amount of water droplets is that the product has been tested before leaving the factory. It is normal to see a small amount of water droplets inside the device, and a small amount of water droplets will not affect the hygiene and safety performance of the product. As long as the products are sold through official channels, they are new products and will not be second-hand. Don't worry, you can use them with confidence.
9. Q: How to deal with the water accumulated in the mist outlet when Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite is in use?
A:
1. When using it for the first time or using it again after a long period of no use, there may be water droplets on the mist outlet at the beginning of use;
2. In the case of high humidity and poor air circulation, the problem of water accumulation may be aggravated;
3. When it appears, wipe off the water droplets, and the follow-up will be normal and will not appear again;
4. If it appears again and again, feedback after-sale application for repair or replacement;
Note: If there is water in the water outlet and the fog cannot be discharged, it will cause the water droplets to flow back and leak water at the joints of the water tank.
10. Q: Does the Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite water tank make an abnormal noise when it shakes?
A: The product design has a floating ball at the bottom of the water tank and a red floating ball at the water level window. It is normal to make a noise when shaking the water tank.

A: There is a black circular magnetic ring in the middle of the float in the float net. According to the water level in the base, the float will float up and down, and there is contact friction with the positioning column rubber in the base. The surface of the positioning column in the base will have a little black is a normal phenomenon.

12. Q: What should I do if the Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite is intermittently fogged and the indicator light flashes alternately in red and white during use?
A: The water in the water tank has been used up, and the water level in the base has been in the zero threshold state of water shortage protection. This phenomenon is normal. Refill the water tank and continue to use it.
13. Q: How to solve the problem that the red light flashes when Xiaomi Humidifier 2 Lite has enough water in the water tank?
A: If the red light flashes when there is enough water in the water tank, it is recommended to check whether the floating plate bracket has fallen off, whether the shock-absorbing cotton has been removed from the factory, and then reassemble the humidifier. If it still cannot be solved, guide the after-sales inspection.
