Do not soak more than 24 hours. Swish element around in
the solution to help remove dirt.
5. Rinse elements from inside out with a gentle stream of
water [less than 275kPa (40psi)] to remove all suds and
dirt.
6. Dry element before reuse with warm air at less than 70°C
(160°F). Do not use a light bulb to dry the element.
