what is the best way to clean the filter?

There are several ways they can be cleaned. If you are just using the magnetic frame to stick it to your PC case, just take it off and wash it in the sink with warm water and soap. If you have screwed the screen onto your fan mount, then you are stuck with using a vacuum cleaner attachment to suck the dust off the screen.

I just run water and a towel or rag and clean the accumulated dust off. I let it air dry and stick it back on (steel case). Won't hurt anything.

cleaning the screen is quite simple, you can either rinse it in water and dry it off or you can take 'air in a can' and use the compressed air to blow the screen clean. I hope this helps!Cheers!

I first rinse and scrub with the brush that came with my juicer starting on the outside first, and then I scrub the inside. Then I add a dab of dish soap now with the water turned off, and scrub again starting on the outside, making sure to get my bristles up under the lip of the filter's edge ( I have noticed a lot of stuff mostly greens get caught up under there) and make my way to the inside. After I am sure I haven't missed a spot I rinse with hot water and then I hold up the filter to a light source and verify that it is completely clean. I have heard that if you have clogs in the mesh to let it soak in lemon water for awhile and then clean as you usually do. I admit that this is my second filter. I too use my juicer daily the first filter I had I didn't clean as thoroughly as I should have and ended up having to buy a new one. Now I treat it as if it were the most important part of my juicer and it is remaining clean after 6 months of avid use! I hope this helps you! Juice on!! and God bless!

Couple of tips: Rinse off new filters, and season them by running clean water through them the first time you use them. Clean the surface of the filters with a soft scrub brush. As someone else pointed out, make sure the dirty water bucket with the filters is NOT air-tight or you will create a flow-stopping vacuum. Keep it filled with dirty water to help provide the water weight needed for optimum flow. Keep dirty water in it at all times. and transfer filtered water from lower catchment reservoir into water pitchers often to prevent overflow. If none of that helps. add filters. Drill the holes and attach new filters as necessary to increase filter system throughput.

It clogged mine up, but nothing I couldn't clean the filter on. I would suggest use a shop vac at first and then go over with your good vacuum.

I use bleach water. Let it soak for a few minutes and then clean with soft brush.

There is a filter in the back...use your vacuum to clean it off. There is a filter in the front...take it out and rinse it...let it dry and return it.. That easy.

I have washed the filter and follow the instructions, it works well. Considering I only did it once and you have done "Several Times", I guess you know the operation process very well and it should be the problem of the Machine. I will take care of it too. Thank you.

I have used mine several times & I only have to wash the basin with soap & water. I use a brush to wash around the filter & it comes out very clean . Hope this helps.

I usually just rinse the motor and filter with warm water, every other piece can go right into the dishwasher!

I have the same issue and that is why I like the filter system. I follow the recommendation to clean with a combination of white vinegar and water. I do need to rinse this through more often and do not wait for the clean light to come on. Happy trails

You can clean the filter yourself and use it over and over again. I can't foresee ever buying another filter for it.

Cleaning he filter is more than just running water through it. The way I do it is I fold 3 or 4 paper towels along side the sink and I put dish washing soap on the filter and scrub with my hands. After rinsing the soap from the filter I bang the filter hard against the towels to see if anything is left in the filter and there always is. Repeat the process until the is no more junk coming out of the filter. This will keep the water clear and clean.

Use the tip of a ballpoint pen in the hole next to the red light indicating clean the filter. Takes a few seconds and the red light goes off. I haven't had a problem with this. Janice

The filter can be vacuumed, not washed. Eventually. the filter will need replacement, but not for a while.

Mine isn't doing this. I would use some very diluted bleach and clean it very well and replace the filter. Search for the dilution you'll need on the bleach and water for cleaning.

I don't know how to clean it. I think we need to order new filters. I love mine too and will have to go to the web site to see about ordering new filters.
