out, without removing the lter. When the container is full, close the

water lter by turning it in clockwise. Empty the container. Repeat this

procedure until all the water has drained. Lay a cotton cloth beneath

the water lter, which can absorb a small amount of rest water. Then

remove the water lter by turning it out anti clockwise. Clean the water

lter: remove residues in the lter and clean it under running water.
