CLEANING & CHANGING THE POST MOTOR FILTER

Cleaning & Changing the HEPA Dust Cup Filter

Warning: Always unplug the unit from electrical outlet before opening the Dust Cup (container).

1.Disconnect from electrical outlet before cleaning the filter.

2.Filter should be cleaned at least twice a year or when it becomes visible solid.

3.Always operate the cleaner with the filter installed.

4.Do not use a washing machine to rinse the filter.

5.Do not use a hair dryer to dry it.

1.Push the Filter Cover Lock to open the filter cover.

2.Remove the filter from the grill-filter.

3.Rinse filter in lukewarm water and dry the filter completely.

4.Put the filter into the grill-filter.

5.A severely solid or clogged filter should be thoroughly washed with fresh tepid water. A mild detergent can be used if required.

Debris Screen will stop most of the tiniest dust particles and airborne allergens from re-entering the air you breathe. In fact it stops 99.97% of all particles as small as

0.3microns - many times smaller than a human hair!!! Because of this incredible filtration performance, the HEPA Dust Cup Filter will quickly accumulate, inside the white filter folds, many fine dust particles that are difficult to see but which will eventually block or reduce your suction power - if not cleaned properly. This can cause the motor to overheat and the re- settable thermostat to trip. (Should this happen turn off the switch, unplug the unit and allow unit to cool down. Clean the HEPA Filter and Debris Screen as described in this section, then reconnect unit and proceed with vacuuming.)

1.To open the Dust Cup (container), push button and detach the Dust Cup (container ). (Fig. 1)

2.Pull out the HEPA Dust Cup Filter or cloth dust cup filter. (Fig. 2)

7.Replace the Debris Screen on the HEPA Dust Cup Filter and reinstall filter assembly in the vacuum. (not shown)

PLEASE NOTE: The white pleated filter material in the HEPA Dust Cup Filter will discolor over time -This is NORMAL and will NOT affect the performance of the filter. If the HEPA Dust Cup Filter

is properly "TapCleaned” after each use and suction does not return to 100%, then we suggest that the HEPA filter be “TapCleaned” vigorously until no

more dust can be removed, then rinsed under the faucet and allowed to dry for 24 hours before refitting into the vacuum. (Fig. A) This should be done not more frequently than once every 3 months.

CAUTION: The suction hole must be open, free of any obstructions at all times. Otherwise, the motor will overheat and could become damaged.
