Fill a large container with warm
water, add a mild kitchen detergent
and stir.
WASHABLE ACTIVE CARBON FILTER CARE
HAND WASH ONLY!
DO NOT TUMBLE DRY!
Dilute as indicated
on the detergent
container.
Allow the filter to soak approxi-
mately 30 minutes before washing.
If the filter surface is
very dirty, scrub with
an old toothbrush.
Rinse thoroughly with
clean water.
CAUTION
If rinsing in a container, be
sure to rinse 3 to 4 times
so that the odour is rinsed
thoroughly from the filter.
Remove excess water.
The filter will be saturated with water after rins-
ing. To decrease drying time, wrap the filter
in an old thick towel so that excess water can
be removed.
CAUTION
Dry the filter outdoors
if possible in a well
ventilated area.
CAUTION
• The wet filter is heavy. Fix it securely for
drying to make sure it does not fall down.
• The filter takes longer to dry in winter, on
rainy days. Wash it on a day when the
weather is good and dry it in the sun.
Move it indoors at night to prevent freez-
ing.
• Dry the filter outdoors in a well ventilated
area. If dried indoors, the water dripping
off the filter may soil your floor.
• Make sure that the activated carbon has
not shifted to one side inside the filter. If it
has, distribute it evenly with your fingers.
• Let the filter dry thoroughly.
If used while the filter is still moist, then
the air that is exhausted from the main
unit will have an odour. It may take 1 or 2
days to dry.
