Replacing the UV-C Bulb

Before replacing the bulb, make sure the vacuum cleaner is switched off and unplugged from the power outlet.

The life span of the UV-C bulb, under normal use, is 2 to 3 years.

Caution: Use only Verilux® bulbs. Use of an incorrect bulb can result in damage. To order a replacement bulb, use the Component Reorder form included with this product, or call Verilux Customer Service at 1-800-786-6850 or visit www.verilux.com.

1.Detach the protective grill on the bottom of the base unit by pulling up the two tabs at the back of the covering. Set the cover aside (see Figure 8).

2.Remove the two plastic pieces that cover the ends of the UV-C bulb.

4.Using a small pair of needle nosed

pliers at one end of the bulb, rotate the bulb 90 degrees and remove (see Figure 9).

Note: The UV-C bulb is housed in a glass sleeve to protect it from accidental damage. Remove the old bulb from this sleeve before disposal.
