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 once a month or when suction appears to be reduced.

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

7.Insert the dust cup cover and HEPA filter into the dust cup.

8.Re-install dust cup and cover into vacuum. Close cover and re-attach hose.

IMPORTANT: Please note that there is a safety switch inside the vacuum where the dust cup is inserted to prevent the unit from being run without a dust cup in place. If the dust cup has not engaged this safety switch, the vacuum will NOT operate. Therefore, ensure that the dust cup is inserted firmly into the vacuum when assembling.

Changing & Cleaning the Post Motor Filter

The post motor filter is a washable filter but should be replaced every three (3) to six (6) months depending on usage. Never operate he vacuum without ALL the filters in place.

•Push the Power On/Off button to the "Off" position and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.

•Remove the filter from the filter grill. The post motor filter is located on the left hand side of the vacuum.

•Rinse the filter in lukewarm water and dry the filter completely. Do not use a washing machine to rinse the filter. Do not use a hair dryer to dry it. Air dry only. Never operate the vacuum without ALL the filters in place.

•When the filter is dry, replace into the filter grill and then into the unit.

•A severely solid or clogged filter should be thoroughly washed in lukewarm water. A mild detergent can be used if required. Ensure that the filter is completely dry before re-installing into the vacuum.

Please Note: The HEPA Dust Cup Filter is washable. It should, however, be replaced every six (6) months to ensure peak performance of your vacuum.

The Post Motor Filter is washable. It should however be replaced every three (3) months to ensure peak performance of your vacuum. Important: Make sure that ALL filters are completely dry before re-installing back in the hand vacuum.

Important: All filters should be checked regularly for signs of damage, preferably after each cleaning task. The filters must be replaced immediately if they become damaged. Always disconnect the vacuum from the electrical outlet when checking the filters.
