Remove excess water.
4
The filter will be saturated with water
after rinsing. To decrease drying time,
wrap the filter in an old thick towel so
that excess water can be removed.
CAUTION
Some carbon may adhere to the towel, but it
is harmless.
5 Dry the filter outdoors if possi-
ble 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 time to dry in win-
ter, 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 of 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.
