Check all filters and replace them 

regularly. It is recommended to clean 

the filters after every use. For normal 

household vacuuming the filters should 

be replaced at least twice a year. 
If you encounter reduced vacuum 

cleaner performance, check:
• Dust capacity in dust container
• All filters, including dust, motor and 

exhaust. Any clogging in the filters 

will reduce the efficiency of your 

vacuum cleaner

To clean the outside of the unit, wipe 

the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. 

Never use an abrasive cleaner. 

Emptying the Dust Container

Always switch the vacuum off, then 

switch off at the power outlet and 

unplug prior to replacing filters or 

emptying the dust container.
For optimum use, the dust container 

should be emptied after every use. 

When the dust container reaches the 

capacity mark ‘MAX’, it is essential 

to thoroughly clean both the dust 

container and filters.
To remove the dust container, ensure 

the vacuum is down on its wheels; 

remove the dust container by pressing 

down on the button on top of the dust 

container. Once released carefully lift 

the container upwards.

To empty the dust container simply 

place it over the rubbish bin, ensuring 

the opening of the bin is larger than 

the dust container. Press the “PUSH” 

button located beneath the hose 

inlet connection on the front of the 

dust container. The bottom of the 

container will release and the dust 

and compiled dirt will be dispensed.

NOTE:

 Dependant upon 

the amount and type of dirt 

collected in the dust container, it 

may be necessary to agitate the 

dirt inside the dust container for 

easier dispensing.

IMPORTANT:

 Do not use 

the unit without a dust 

container in place.
