REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

REPLACING THE FILTER

Under normal usage, the HEPA Filter will require replacement once every three (3) months, however, vacuuming large amounts of extremely fine dust, powder or similar material over a long period of time may decrease airflow performance through the filter. If this occurs, it may become necessary to replace the HEPA Filter more often. Only use genuine FANTOM replacement filters.

Press in the locking tabs at points 1

1 and pull the filter cover away from the vacuum cleaner.

Caution: Do not wash the sub-filter in a washing machine, and do not use any other equipment such as a hair dryer to dry it. Always allow 24 hours for drying. Do not operate

the vacuum without the sub-filter. Be sure the sub-filter is dry and properly installed. Failure to do so could result in electrical shock, personal injury, or motor failure.
