HOW TO CHANGE THE CERAMIC FILTERS
This model is used two ceramic filters of CF2, CF3.
Y ou must use same type of color marked cer amic filters in order to
meet same specifications.
Therefore, the ceramic filter must change two pieces together since
it's supply two pieces in one package as a spare parts.
