• Replace each filter in the cassette frame
by inserting one long edge first, then
snapping into place by pushing sideways
and down at the same time. Make sure
both filters are completely inside the
cassette frame and secured by the short
tabs. If a filter is on top of one or more
tabs, pull outward, slightly flexing the
cassette frame, while gently pushing
down on the edge of the filter.
• Replace the filter cassette and front panel
as described in Changing Filter (page 5).
• Plug in the power cord to a wall outlet and
turn on the unit.
