Care and Cleaning (continued)
1. Use a screwdriver to remove the bolt screw on each side for the two
latches. (Be sure to reattach the two bolt screws after cleaning.)
2. Press on the two latches of the air intake grille with your thumbs in the
direction of the arrow to open the grille.
3. Open the air intake grille downward.
• When cleaning the air filter, never remove the safety chain. If it is
necessary to remove it for servicing and maintenance inside, be sure
to reinstall the safety chain securely (hook on the grille side) after the
work.
• When the filter has been removed, rotating parts (such as the fan),
electrically charged areas, etc. will be exposed in the unit's opening.
Bear in mind the dangers that these parts and areas pose, and
proceed with the work carefully.
