Inspect the air filter every month to check if it is blocked by dirt or contains holes. With normal use of an S8 Elite II, the air filter needs to be replaced every six months (or more often if your device is in a dusty environment).

The air filter cover protects the device in the event of accidental liquid spillage onto the device. Ensure the air filter and air filter cover are fitted at all times.
