Hope this works for you.

There is a sticker that comes in the owner's manual that apparently falls out frequently. I was told that the fill level is two inches below the top edge of the reservoir. I am going to mark mine with a Sharpie since stickers have a tendency to fall of when wet.

On my water wheel several parameters must be met. 1. Power on, cord plugged in. 2. Water in tank, the float arm needs to move to indicate water present, the red light on the dash indicates no water. 3. Humidity controll set higher than the room atmosphere humidity, clockwise is higher on mine. 4. The fan speed selecter must be on either high or low, the fan won't run unless one position is selected. I hope this helps

I found your web site to be an essentially useless waste of my time, and was not surprised at all when you offered to sell me something, rather than addressing the problem.

Please stay out of my mailbox; Bemis is on my list of "Do Not Buy" products. Maybe others are as bad, but at least I can give them a try. I already know you guys are are useless sales pitch.

We found the manual!

Thanks anyway.

we threw it out

i realize this answer is a year old; but, i would guess you didn't let the wick become saturated before running. fill the resevoir with water, then let the humidifier sit idle while the wick is saturating. when it is completely saturated, the refill light will go off. refill the resevoir with additional water, as needed. then you can run the humidifier.
