S9 dishwasher safe water chamber

Post by millich » Wed Feb 07, 2018 6:01 pm

I just received a dishwasher safe water chamber for my S9. I’ve always used the other one. How in the devil do you get the “flip lid” apart from the base? I feel stupid!

If I knew how to post a picture, I would.

Pull out on the 4 soft tabs-- one on each side.
Lift top off.
After cleaning, the collar holding the tabs together may slide down,
and will need to be eased up to the rim, so the tabs will latch.
One corner of the tank and all its parts is different, to help with alignment.

The dishwasher safe chamber has a 3rd piece of plastic. There is a piece in between the top that lifts off as you describe and the bottom. They refer to it as a “flip lid”. It is firmly attached to the bottom. The directions say to remove that piece for cleaning. How in the heck do I do that?

I am lost.

Pull, the top, center piece, and bottom are three separate parts.

Thank you for responding, ChunkyFrog, and Pale Rider! I really appreciate it. My husband got it apart. He applied a much firmer pressure than I was comfortable using.

Thanks again.
