¶ Air filter cover/Air filter
The air filter is installed on the inside of the right liner of the printer (the side close to the printer chamber) to filter the air in the printer chamber and effectively remove VOCs.
The outer shell of the air filter is equipped with a detachable air filter cover. When replacing the air filter, you need to remove the air filter cover first. A filter is installed on the inside of the air filter cover to prevent debris in the printer chamber from passing through the air filter cover and avoid damage to the chamber exhaust fan.

¶ Safety Warning
IMPORTANT!
It's crucial to power off the printer before conducting any maintenance work, including work on the printer's electronics and tool head wires. Performing tasks with the printer on can result in a short circuit, leading to electronic damage and safety hazards.
During maintenance or troubleshooting, you may need to disassemble parts, including the hotend. This exposes wires and electrical components that could short circuit if they contact each other, other metal, or electronic components while the printer is still on. This can result in damage to the printer's electronics and additional issues.
Therefore, it's crucial to turn off the printer and disconnect it from the power source before conducting any maintenance. This prevents short circuits or damage to the printer's electronics, ensuring safe and effective maintenance. For any concerns or questions about following this guide, we recommend submitting a technical ticket regarding your issue and we will do our best to respond promptly and provide the assistance you need.
