4.2.1 Preparation for Use with Filter Paper or Filter Pad
1. Pull the filter pan out from the cabinet
and remove the crumb tray, hold-down
ring, filter paper and filter screen. (See
Figure 1) Clean all components with a
solution of detergent and hot water, then
dry thoroughly.
The filter pan is equipped with rollers in
rails, much like a kitchen drawer. The
pan may be removed for cleaning or to
gain access to interior components by
lifting the front of the pan to disengage
the front rollers, then pulling it forward
until the rear rollers clear the rails. The
pan cover must not be removed except
for cleaning, interior access, or to allow
a shortening disposal unit (SDU) to be
positioned under the drain.
2. Inspect the filter pan connection fitting
to ensure that both O-rings are in good
condition. (See Figure 2)
3. Then in reverse order, place the metal
filter screen in the center of the bottom
of the pan, then lay a sheet of filter paper
on top of the screen, overlapping on all
sides. (See Figure 1) If using a filter
pad, ensure the rough side of the pad is
up and lay the pad over the screen,
making sure that the pad is in between
the embossed ridges of the filter pan.
4. Position the hold-down ring over the
filter paper and lower the ring into the
pan, allowing the paper to rest on the
sides of the filter pan. (See Figure 3)
