Maintenance and care

Maximize your cleaning performance

To maximize your cleaning performance and extend the life of your vacuum, it is very important that you empty your dirt container and check and clean your filters frequently. Perform the following maintenance steps

1.Empty the dirt container when the dirt reaches the “full” line on the dirt container, or more frequently, to prevent overfills. For best performance, empty after each use.

2.Check the foam motor filter and the HEPA media filter at least once a month, clean or replace as needed.

3.The HEPA media filter should be replaced if machine performance is noticeable declin- ing. More or less frequent replacing may be required based on individual vacuuming habits and types of debris picked up.

Emptying dirt container

The dirt container should be emptied before the dirt reaches the “full” line on the container.

2.Slide the Lock ‘n Seal lever to the “unlock” position.

3.Grasp handle and pull the dirt container straight out to remove from the vacuum.

4.Empty dirt into garbage container.

NOTE: Emptying the dirt container after every use will help prevent over filling and ensure that the vacuum is ready to go the next time you clean.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, turn power switch OFF and disconnect polarized plug from electrical outlet before performing maintenance or troubleshooting checks.
