how do you change the filter in the cover?

Looks like you got your answer. I have only changed the round filter since that is the replacement they sell. I have kept the square filter in since that does not touch the food items.

Just pull it out and fit it back in. Nothing mysterious, just grab it with your thumb and first finger and tug it out. I have stopped using it as we decided to take the can out to compost pile more frequently. The fly fruit larve were lodging themselves in the filter - I put out a tiny dish with vinegar and capture the ones that are flying about from our bowl of fruit or compost pail.

Just pull the used filter out of the lid and push the new filter into the lid.

Good question- the charcoal filters are flexible. Use your fingers place out toward the metal and pinch it. The square filter is kinda stiff bit it will bend. Both filters are removed through the hole in the bottom of the lid. To replace, you just have to fold in half a bit a push it up thru the hole- round filter first , then the square one. Good luck. Hope that helps

The previous answer is exactly right. Just get your fingers to grip the filter and pinch it toward the middle. It will bend and come right out. The second filter (closest to the top of the lid) will be easy to remove....grab, pull through the same hole you used to remove the square filter.

Replacing the 3091 filter requires removing the cover (see latch at top of cover) on the back of the vacuum cleaner. The filter is revealed (an accordion bellows style paper filter in a plastic frame). Pull out the old filter, insert the new one and snap the cover back in place. There is NO foam in this area of the vacuum cleaner. There is, however, a black (pre-motor) foam filter in the slide out tray immediately below the dirt container on the front of the vacuum cleaner. When it becomes dirty, it should be hand-washed in cold water. Allow the foam filter to dry thoroughly; then it may be re-used.

You put your fingers in through the big circular hole at the bottom of the lid and just pull the filters out. Similarly, to put in replacement filters, just squish them in through that big circular hole and adjust as needed so that they're settled in place.

on the model that I have the filter screws onto the inside of the water tank fill cap. remove the fill cap, unscrew the old filter from the cap and replace it with the new filter. Should be simple. Be sure to follow instructions for activating the filter.

My model has the filter in the upper right corner in the fridge. I was able to push in and the filter releases and comes out. Then place the new one in and do the same. Push in and it will stay in place. That is it. Most simple filter change I have ever done. Hope this helps as some models are different than others. Good Luck.

I have not changed the filter in my units yet. I have cleaned them, meaning I have knocked the dust off them. But I have not replaced them. There is a small somewhat fragile one in there that you want to be careful with as I guess there is no replacement. The other is larger, maybe paper although I don't remember for sure. This is the one I have knocked the dust off.

My filter box has a built in hand hold that I simple pull on and the cover comes off. It snaps back in very securely. If yours has a place for you hand then would recommend giving it a good healthy tug.

There are two filters on it. You can get both from Amazon. The more temporary one is a "cut to size" and you can get two replacements if you're careful on the cutting. The permanant one has a serial number on it and you can just punch that into the search and it will cough it up.

It's been a while since I've changed mine but it just takes some effort to work the new filter over the original basket.you have to remove old filter first being careful not to break it or damage the original basket.then you have to work the rubber opening of the move filter over the basket and making sure it is completely sealed around the basket securely.that's the best way I know how to describe it.o piece you've done it once you'll catch on quickly of how to do it next time

Unless they have changed the design since I bought mine, the plastic tab that holds them together screws apart to remove them. Look at both sides of the tab, on one side it is slotted to put a coin or screwdriver in to take it apart. Unscrew the tab by holding the back side and using a coin or screwdriver take the tab apart and then remove the filter you want and screw the tab back together to when finished. Don't over tighten it when screwing it back together.

I have not figured out how to attach the filter. Directions are vague and incomplete. Descriptions before I bought it state that it fits, but I haven't figured out how to put it on.

If you pushed the button to pull the whole filter assembly apart and then unscrewed the dirt cup then screw the dirt cup back in, Put the screen filter back over the paper filter and put the filter back in the clear plastic filter holder. Then there is a tab on the filter assembly that goes in the bottom of the vacuum first then fold it up to snap back in. Easier done than explained

You can't replace the filters on the inside you take the whole plastic piece off by turning it sideways then your replace that cartridge, you can buy replacement cartridges on amazon or at a local paint store

Gail, it's not easy as the fit is very tight but it can be done. What we found is: keep gently squeezing around the top edge and eventually you can see where the filter will separate from the frame. Gently peel the old one off(can be washed and reused). Then slip the new one on and push the rubber parts together so they fit snug. Hope this helps. Lee Ulbing

When you remove the front and replace the filter there is a button that you depress until it beeps. After that you can replace the front cover and the light will be off.

1. Open the lid where you pour the water. 2. Locate the filter holder (usually is black). 3. Grasp the filter holder and pull straight up. ****NOTE how the holder is in position. 4. Open the small basket that holds the filter. 5. Remove filter. 6. Place the new filter in the basket and close. 7. Place filter holder back.

If you imagine filter as the shape of a "D" in the middle of the straight line there should be a small tab. It is the same blue material in the filter. Pull the tab and the filter should come out easily. If the tab isn't there for some reason just pull the filter up.
