DISASSEMBLY- AND RE-ASSEMBLY ADVISE

- To open the appliance, first remove the filter cover

(item 17).

- Remove the dust bucket including filter.

- Remove the turn plate cover (item 6) after removing the

2 screws (A).

- Remove the 6 screws (B) at the bottom of the appliance.

For 2 screws a screwdriver with a 14.5 cm long shrank is

for this.

- Lift the upper housing by pulling only the middle of the

backside up (use a screwdriver if necessary).

bling the upper housing (connector fits in one way only).

- When the repair is finished, check whether all functions of

the appliance work properly.

Further disassembly advise for the potmeter:

- Remove the turn knob by just pulling it (use a screwdriver

if necessary).

- Remove the 2 screws (C) inside the upper housing, use

TORX screwdriver no. T10, which is one of a set consisting

of T20; T15; T10; T9; T8; T7 and T6 (code number

4822 395 505145).

displacement is too low or if the airflow is blocked.

the Triac must be short-circuited in the manner shown in
