Joint a filter on the In-tube of the head, and then joint an injector--which fills with flush solution--on the filter.

Inject 10-20 ml flush solution to the head to eject the humectants inside. Then fill the head with flush

solution to dissolve the humectants completely within 5-10 minutes. Finally, flush the head with about 30ml

flush solution to eliminate the humectants completely.

Make sure to operate on a stable and clean platform.

1. Clean platform for convenient operation;

2. Don’t touch the surface of head and socket with hand;
