I just got this. No instructions except pictures on the box. I filled with water and oil as advised on the box. There is a blinking red light or a straight on red light. I push the buttons. Nothing happens. Yesterday was the first day I used this. It...

The red flashing light means the water is below water sensor -&gt; add more water. When the red light is constantly on, that means the diffuser has power and has enough water. If it doesn't turn on, 98% of the time, it's just low water. You need to fill above the metal sensor.

So sorry I haven't responded sooner, been having major internet problems. Have you "squeezed" the trigger back towards the bottle? If you did, and it didn't work, it may be defective.

I have looked at the Use and Care Instructions to see if there was anything about the red light blinking and found nothing. I would suggest that you call the Germ Guard company and let them help you. 1-866-603-5900. Sorry I couldn't help you.

There should be a little red light that turns on and it flashes until it goes solid that means its ready. If the light doesn't turn on and it doesn't get hot then it doesn't work. I would send it back for a new one. There should be a warrenty.

I ran it in reverse. Otherwise my husband took it apart and it worked for a little while. Then I bought this new one. I see there should be oil on a piece of paper every once in a while. I just learned that. I found a nice on the internet after I bought this one for about the same price and does the same thing at either Walmart or Meijer.

If you look on the inside reservoir there is a small raised area...it is the same color so look carefully. That is the water fill line. My instructions suggested using distilled water-I use filtered and wipe reservoir clean every couple of days. My instructions suggested using 2-5 drops of oil per fill. I typically use 5. Also, when you turn it on you get one beep-this setting will run continually until empty. Push button a second time you get two beeps. This setting is alternating puffs of 15 seconds on, 15 seconds off until empty. I hope this helps!!!!!

Thanks from me, also! I had the same problem. Easy fix!I will say that the instruction manual is very vague.

If the light is blinking then the blender is not secure. I would detach and try again. I wish I could help more but mine burned out after 2 months of use. The light would come on but the motor wouldn't start. Best of luck.

Did you receive an instruction manual, we just pushed the button with the red ring around it. Is this button not working for you? If this does not turn it on then there is something mechanical or electrical wrong with it.

Just turn it on maybe 2 minutes before you use it..mine doesn't do that at all..

The same thing happened with mine initially. Then I repeated the steps and everything is working as it should be. I can't remember what I did differently, but there was a part of the instructions that I followed more quickly. Wish I could remember exactly what it was, but do not give up hope!

Mine came with no instructions but I am not so sure mine is working either. Not so sure any of them work.

I just push the on button and it comes on. Maybe yours is defective. I would contact seller.

Do you have 2 cig lighters in car you can hook this in to? Try the other one. Did you turn the car on when you plugged it in? Radio is on? If so it must be defective. It should light right up. There is no button that needs to be pressed.

Perhaps they have changed something but ours does not have a red light. Perhaps the flashing red means it is heating. Does it heat up? Did you try a different setting rather than on high? I'd try to leave it on a couple hours to see what happens. If it does not go off, then malfunction.

All I can tell you is that as soon as I filled it and turned it on the rocker switch worked immediately and so did the keep it warm switch. It sounds as though you got a defective unit.

I owned this product for literally 5 minutes. As soon as I put water in the tank and turned it on, it made a few sputter noises and never turned on again. I don't recall a light being on the tank.
