To check for damage, pin holes, etc. shine a light source into the end of the element. If light CANNOT be seen
through the paper, a new element should be installed. Likewise, if pinholes of bright light appear in the paper, the

To clean the pre cleaner, separate it from the cartridge and wash in liquid detergent and water. Squeeze dry in a
clean cloth.
