The CMC100 is equipped with a washable filter. Inspect the

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

spect and clean the pump system.
