Trim the outer perimeter edge of the filter to allow proper positioning in its housing; fit it into the designated plastic support before inserting it into the corresponding location under the fish tank. Wash the rigid plastic duct with hot water and dry it thoroughly.

Insert the front support and reposition the duct in its housing. Screw in the two fastening screws located on the front side, and reposition the front gasket onto its metal edge.

Activate the ventilation system by setting the fan control to maximum speed and check its proper functioning.
