Changing the
Charcoal Filter
In the U.S., exhausted charcoal filters are considered to be
non-hazardous waste according to the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency Resource Conservation Recovery Act (RCRA).
Municipality owned and licensed solid waste management facilities
are an appropriate disposal option. Contact your local or state
solid waste authorities to determine if additional disposal
requirements apply. In other regions, contact local or regional
solid waste authorities for proper disposal guidance.
The preventive maintenance filter must be changed every 7,500 films. When
it is time to replace the filter, condition code 20449 and an icon show on the
display screen.
1. Remove the film trays (see “Inserting the Film Saver and Removing
the Film Tray”).
2. Turn the imager OFF (O).
