How to extend the life of your
HEPA Absolute Air filter
Your HEPA Absolute Air filter operates best when you use it under normal household cleaning conditions like vacuuming living rooms, hallways, bedrooms, kitchens, etc.
CAUTION: If you leave the HEPA filter cartridge in for abnormal domestic cleaning chores, such as for vacuuming ash from a fireplace or sawdust from a carpentry work area, you will shorten the life of the filter. To clean these areas use a dust pan and brush for the excess dirt, then use the vacuum for the residue.
