Filter in each hand.

With one thumb on the Qwik Lock™
stud, which protrudes through the

release from the Filter cage. Slide
Filter off cage.
Filter Installation:
1.
Carefully slide the Qwik Lock™ Filter
over the Filter cage and press down
on the outside edge of the Filter until
the rubber gasket on the bottom of the

Align the small center hole in the top
of the Filter over the Qwik Lock™ stud
on the Filter cage. Press firmly on top
of the Filter near the stud to allow the
