EMPTYING THE DUST CUP

To maintain the best performance of your vacuum, empty the dust cup after every use or as debris approaches the “MAX FILL” line. Never operate the vacuum without the dust cup and filter in place.

1Turn off the vacuum before removing the dust cup.

2Press down on the dust cup release button (fig. 5) and pull out the dust cup.

3Holding the carry handle, place the dust cup inside a trash receptacle and press the lower dust cup door release button. Gently tap the dust cup to dislodge and release dust and debris. (fig. 6)

Important: If the Dust Cup Door does not swing open after press- ing the release button, push the door open using the bottom door tabs.

4Snap the door back in place.

5If you notice hair or other debris wrapped around the metal screen in the upper chamber of the dust cup, press the upper dust cup door release to open the top of the dust cup. Lift out the metal screen, clear any debris and replace. Snap the door back into place. (fig. 7)

6Replace the dust cup by first seating the lower part of the dust cup, then pushing in the top part until it clicks. (fig. 8)

CLEANING THE FILTER

Your vacuum has a high efficiency dust cup to maintain strong suction by preventing debris from collecting on the filter. To maintain strong suction, it is important to clean the foam filter every month, under normal use.

1Turn off the vacuum and remove the dust cup.

2Remove the foam filter (fig. 9) and rinse under water until the water runs clear. (fig. 10) Squeeze the excess water out of the filter and let it air dry for 24 hours before replacing.

•DO NOT use a hair dryer or other forced hot air to dry the filter.

•DO NOT operate the vacuum without the filter in place.

•DO NOT operate the vacuum with a wet filter.

NOTE: It is normal for your foam filter to discolor over time; it will not affect the filter performance.

CLEANING THE MOTORIZED BRUSH AND CLEARING BLOCKAGES

An accumulation of hair, string, and other debris may sometimes become lodged in the flexible air hose of the

motorized brush, in the air inlet of the dustcup or wrapped around the brush roll. These areas must be free from debris for maximum cleaning performance. To clear blockages and clean the brush roll:

1Ensure the vacuum is off.

2Press the release button located on the rear of the main body and remove the motorized brush.

(fig. 11)

3To clear the air hose, flip back the connector to straighten the air passage (fig. 12) and carefully remove any debris lodged in the air hose. DO NOT USE SCISSORS OR OTHER SHARP OBJECTS AS THESE MAY DAMAGE THE HOSE.
