Import Tips & Compliance

• Document smart features as accessories; classification based on core evaporative function, not Bluetooth capability

• Test for wick evaporation vs ultrasonic vibration to avoid 8543 electronic appliance misclassification

• Label capacity under 1 gallon and voltage 110-120V to confirm domestic U.S. market appliance status
