3. Maintenance

Familiarize yourself with these home
maintenance tasks as proper use and
care of your cleaner will ensure contin-
ued cleaning effectiveness.

Dirt cup

The dirt cup assembly consists of the
following parts:
Lid (A)
Dirt Cup (B)
Pre-filter (C)
HEPA Cartridge Filter(D)
Dirt Inlet Opening (E)

While the cleaner is in operation, the pre-
filter screen will stop larger debris from
entering the HEPA cartridge filter chamber.
This larger debris will be seen collecting in
the left side of the dirt cup. The HEPA car-
tridge filter will collect fine particles that
have passed through the pre-filter screen.

When to empty

It is recommended that the dirt cup be
emptied before the dirt reaches the dirt
inlet opening on back of dirt cup (Fig. 3-1)
or after every use if preferred.

CAUTION:  Very fine materials, such
as face powder, cornstarch or fire-
place soot, may seal the filter and
cause loss of suction.  When using
the cleaner for this type of dust,
empty the cup and clean the filters
often.

How to empty

Disconnect cleaner from electrical
outlet. Do not use cleaner without dirt
cup or filters in place.

Slide latch (F) to the left to unlock.

Lift cup slightly and pull 

straight 

out to

remove from cleaner.

Extra hose

(available at additional cost if not includ-
ed with your cleaner)

The extra reach hose provides a 20 foot
reach to allow easier cleaning of stairs
and hard-to-reach high places. To attach
hose to your vacuum cleaner, follow the
instructions below.

Turn cleaner OFF before disconnect-
ing and connecting hose.

Align end of extra reach hose with pro-
jections (M) over slots (N) on end of
attached hose.

Slide hose into slots and twist hose to
lock it into place. (To detach hose,
reverse procedure.)

Attach wands or tools to the other end of
hose.
