OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Emptying the Dust Cup Container

and Cleaning / Changing the

HEPA Filter & Debris Screen

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

Important: Do NOT use the vacuum without the HEPA filter in place.

Warning: After each Use - Always remove the HEPA Filter and the Dust Cup Cover with the Debris Screen, then vigorously “TapClean” HEPA Filter and clean Debris Screen until no more dust can be removed.

IMPORTANT, Please Note : The “TapClean” HEPA Filter will stop most of the tiniest dust particles from re-entering the air you breathe. In fact it stops 99.97% of all particles as small as 0.3 microns - many times smaller than a human hair!!! Because of this incredible filtration performance, the HEPA 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.

1.To remove the dust cup container, first press on the dust cup release button (1) that is located on the dust cup handle and at the same time press on the dust cup release button

(2) that is on the side of the upper housing. See illustration below. Then pull the dust cup container out.

5.Hold the HEPA filter by the edges and vigorously “TapClean” the HEPA Filter dirty side down on a hard, flat surface until no more dust is observed falling out from between the pleats of the filter.

7.To Separate the Debris Screen from the dust cup, hold the dust cup in one hand and turn the dust cup cover counter clockwise and pull apart. To clean the Debris Screen, we

recommend that you rinse it under lukewarm running water to remove the dirt that accumulates

allow 24 hours to air dry before inserting back into the vacuum.
