7) To replace the cloth filter, you must
decrease the circumference of the filter
by pulling one side of the filter towards
the center of the filter to create a “V” or
“U” shape.
8) Place the filter back into the unit and
let the filter snap outward into the
groove.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the cloth filter is fitting
properly into the groove so it will not
come out when the machine is turned
on. Failure to do so could void your
