CLEANING THE TURBO VAC BODY
The outside of the turbo vac may be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth. Please do not use water, spray polish,
aggressive cleaners or scourers. Never immerse the turbo vac in water or any other liquid.
TROUBLESHOOTING
In the unlikely event that your turbo vac still does not work, please do not attempt to repair it yourself. Call the
helpline on 015394 88100.
RECYCLING YOUR ELECTRICALS
Along with many other high street retailers, Lakeland has joined a scheme whereby customers can take their
unwanted electricals to recycling points set up around the country. Visit
www.recycle-more.co.uk
to find your
nearest recycling point. The vacuum cleaner must not be disposed of with ordinary household waste.
3.
To dislodge any stubborn dust, you can unscrew the top part of the dust collector from the turbo vac. Tap
it against a dustbin until empty, or wipe out with a cloth. It must be thoroughly dry before replacing.
CLEANING THE FILTERS
To ensure maximum suction and performance, we recommend cleaning the HEPA filter and nylon mesh filter
regularly. If pick-up power is reduced, always clean the filters as they may be blocked.
1.
Make sure the turbo vac is switched off and unplugged.
2.
Press the dust collector release button. Remove the dust collector.
3.
Lift out the filters, and pull the mesh filter off the HEPA filter. Tap both filters gently against the side of a
dustbin to remove any particles. Use a soft brush to dislodge any stubborn dust.
4.
The filters may also be rinsed in lukewarm water. Allow to air-dry thoroughly before replacing them.
5.
Push the mesh filter back onto the HEPA filter. Place the filters back inside the dust collector, and click
this back into place on the turbo vac.
CAUTION: never use the turbo vac without the filters in place.
CLEANING THE ROTATING TURBO BRUSH
Occasionally the rotating brush may become blocked by threads, hair or debris. Clearing it is very easy.
1.
Make sure the turbo vac is switched off and unplugged, then remove the turbo brush.
2.
Remove the locking ring from the turbo brush by pushing both ends with your thumbs.
3.
Lift off the base of the turbo brush. Carefully snip away threads or hair with scissors, and use a brush to
dislodge any particles.
4.
Replace the base of the turbo brush; it should click into place. Push the locking ring back into position.
