Side filters
Note: For earlier models only, you will need a small blade screwdriver to open the side filter access door. For later models, the filter grill simply pulls out. If this operation is too difficult for you to perform, please contact your equipment provider to perform this for you.
Clean the side filters weekly. There are two side filters, one located on each side of the concentrator cabinet. Perform the following steps on both side filters.
1.Turn off the power switch and unplug the concentra- tor’s AC connector from the power outlet.
2.For earlier models, use a small blade screwdriver to open the air intake ac- cess door; for later mod- els, open the filter grill (see Figure 2).
3.Remove the side filter
carefully with your fin- gers.
4.Inspect the filter; if any
part of it is cracked or broken, replace it instead of cleaning it.
5. If cleaning, rinse filter well with clear water until all dirt is removed.
6.To dry filter, squeeze it carefully between two absor- bent towels . Wait for filter to dry before installing it in concentrator. When dry, install filter carefully as shown in Figure 2.
