Inspect and Clean Filter Element
The CMC100 is equipped with a washable filter. Inspect the
filter by removing the four filter door screws and sliding it out of
the filter door panel (see Figure 2). If the filter shows excessive
buildup, vacuum it clean and wash it in mild detergent. Replace
the filter in the filter door and close the door securely.
Note:
Do not operate the unit without the filter securely in
place. If the filter becomes torn or can no longer be adequately
cleaned, the filter may be replaced with similar cut-to-fit ma-
terial available at most hardware stores.
Inspect and Clean Pump
If the unit no longer pumps water out of the drain line, the
pump may be clogged with debris. Follow these steps to in-
spect and clean the pump system.
