Empty any remaining water from the vaporizer.
Dry the inside of the water compartment thoroughly. Use a towel wrapped in a chopstick to dry hard-to-reach crevices. Leave the compartment out to air dry overnight if possible.
Replace the water tank.
Wrap the electric cord around the vaporizer, or remove it and wrap it separately if possible.
Wrap the vaporizer in a towel or a piece of thick clothing such as a sweatshirt to avoid jostling in a box or suitcase. Place it in your box or suitcase. Use other items to tightly nestle it in place so it does not move around.
