J) CHANGING FILTERS

In addition to the dust bag, the vacuum cleaner contains two filters; a central filter that protects the motor (fig.1) and a HEPA filter that removes particles from the exhausted air (fig.2). The HEPA filter should be changed every six months or whenever it becomes dirty. The central filter should be changed or rinsed out whenever the HEPA filter is replaced.
