Cleaning and
Replacing Filters
To assist you with the regular care of
your vacuum, a second HEPA filter is
supplied for convenient use, ideal for
when a dirty filter is being cleaned.
Dirty and clogged filters may result in
reduced suction performance. It is
recommended that filters are cleaned
after every use and replaced regularly
to ensure maximum efficiency from
your vacuum.
If filters are left uncleaned, it may
result in a reduction of suction power.
Should this occur, the following
procedure should be followed every
couple of months.
Procedure to Replace Filters
Always switch the vacuum off,
then switch off at the power outlet
and unplug prior to cleaning or
replacing the filters. Before replacing
the filters ensure all dirt and dust is
first emptied from the dust container.
Refer to the ‘EMPTYING THE DUST
CONTAINER’ section.
1.
Remove the dust container from
the vacuum by pressing down
on the button on top of the
dust container. Once released,
carefully lift the container
upwards.
Your new vacuum cleaner
includes a black foam filter casing
which locks your foam filter to the
front side of the HEPA filter. This is a
reusable, removable part.

2.
To remove the HEPA filter from
the back (flat side) of the dust
container, press the tab and pull
out the HEPA filter, followed by the
foam filter and black casing.

When conducting your routine
cleaning of the filters, it is
necessary to remove the black
foam casing to separate the
foam and HEPA filters for cleaning.
