Debris filter
Clean the debris filter bi-monthly to prevent clogging. A clogged debris filter may reduce the bubble effect.
NOTE
If the debris filter is clogged, an information code of "5C" appears on the screen.
CAUTION
• Make sure the filter knob is closed properly after cleaning the filter. Otherwise, this may cause a leak.
• Make sure the filter is inserted properly after cleaning it. Otherwise, this may cause an operational
failure or a leak.
