Maintenance
c. Remove and discard the large O-ring.
Note Be careful to not drop the O-ring into the desiccant compartment.

WARNING
The contents of the desiccant canisters (hydrated metal aluminosilicate
molecular sieve) could be harmful if ingested. If you discard the saturated
desiccant canisters, make sure they are properly disposed of.
a. Use the 0.05-inch hex key to loosen (approximately two turns) the eight screws that hold the two
saturated desiccant canisters to the desiccant cartridge. Remove the canisters.
b. Turn the desiccant cartridge upside down and peel the old humidity indicator off the window.
Discard the used indicator.
