    Step 8: Put everything back in place and you are ready to roll.



    Precautions: Karizma uses a paper filter and you are not supposed to clean it with petrol/kerosene or any other liquid substance. At best, you can clean it by blowing air, but it is recommended that you change the filter completely whenever need be.
