inside towards the outside.
t
IMPORTANT
t
Observe the safety distance of 30 mm between the jet of air and the cartridge to avoid tearing or piercing the
cartridge. You must not blow out the cartridge near the air filter casing. Never clean the cartridge by tapping it against
a hard surface. Protect your eyes during this operation.
- Clean the inside of the filter with a clean, damp, lint-free cloth.
- Check the condition of the filter cartridge and replace it, if necessary.
