2. Unscrew the two PH2 screws on the top of the left-hand side panel and the three PH2 screws along the back of the left-hand panel.

3. Use a small flat-bladed screwdriver to prise open the three clips holding the side panel to the appliance, then pull the side panel from back to front to remove it.

4. Unscrew the ventilation grille anti-clockwise to remove it.

NOTE: Make sure the ventilation grille is firmly screwed back into place when reinstalling it.

5. Pull the container cup towards you and then lift it up to remove it from the salt pot.

Use pliers to squeeze the jubilee clip and slide the clip down the hose to release the container.

7. When assembling, repeat the steps in reverse order.
