Maintenance and care

Cleaning the pre-motor filter & replacing the post-motor filter

1.Unplug the vacuum from electrical outlet.

2.The pre-motor filter protects the motor from dirt particles. It is located in the slide out tray underneath the dirt container. Check the pre-motor filter at least once a month. If the filter becomes dirty, pull out the tray, lift out the foam filter pad and clean it.

NOTE: The pre-motor filter may be hand washed in water with mild detergent. Rinse well and air dry thoroughly before replacing.

NOTE: Use of moist parts/compo- nents in your unit will damage the motor and void your warranty.

3.The post-motor filter assists in the filtration process to return clean air to the room. It is located behind the door on the side of the vacuum. If the filter becomes dirty, open the door, remove the filter and replace.

4.The Febreze® filter is designed to eliminate odors during the regular life of the filter. Depending on usage, the post-motor filter should be changed every 3-6 months.

NOTE: The post-motor filter is a white, pleated filter. This filter is not washable and must be replaced when it becomes dirty.
