Chapter 5 Maintaining the Router

Cleaning or Replacing the Chassis Air Filter

Step 3 Visually check the condition of the air filter to determine whether to clean it or install a new replacement filter:

Dirty—You can either vacuum or replace the filter.

Caution Do not vacuum the air filter while it is installed in the chassis. Before you clean it, you must remove the air filter completely to prevent contaminants from being drawn into the router.

Worn or torn—If the filter appears worn or torn, dispose of it in a responsible manner and install a new replacement (12000/10-FILTER=).

Step 4 Slide the new or cleaned air filter into the air filter door (honey comb side down). Step 5 Close the air filter door and tighten the captive screws (see Figure 5-3).

Caution Align and seat the door carefully to avoid damaging the EMI-preventive gaskets on the door. The air filter door must be closed and secured at all times to maintain correct EMI performance.
