What You'll Learn
Unplug the diffuser and empty any water
Unplugging the diffuser and emptying any water is the first step in cleaning your TaoTronics aroma diffuser model TT-AD002. This is a safety precaution to prevent any accidental damage to the appliance. The user manual for the TT-AD002 diffuser recommends unplugging the power cord and removing the cover before draining any remaining water from the tank.
The manual also suggests cleaning the water tank with a brush when grime builds up. This can be done by removing the tank cover and adding water until it reaches the maximum water level line. A few drops of essential oil can then be drizzled into the tube until dispensing starts. The tank cover should then be put back on.
For a more thorough clean, the manual recommends unplugging the unit and emptying the tank through the water outlet. This can be done by adding 3-5 grams of baking soda and filling the tank halfway with warm water. The solution should be stirred until the baking soda is fully dissolved. The tank and cover can then be wiped down with a small brush or soft cloth dipped in the baking soda solution. The solution should be drained, and the tank rinsed under running water. Finally, the inside and outside of the diffuser should be dried with a towel or clean cloth.
