How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn the unit off and unplug it before removing the filter.

Steps to clear CF:

  • Remove air filter: Slide out the filter from the rear or side of the unit according to the user manual.
  • Clean filter: Vacuum off loose dust, then wash the filter with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to dry completely.
  • Clean intake grille: Wipe down the intake and exhaust grilles to remove dust buildup.
  • Reinstall filter: Once dry, reinstall the filter securely.
  • Reset indicator: Press and hold the filter reset button (or as specified in the manual) for several seconds until CF clears.
