Cleaning & Changing the 
HEPA Dust Cup Filter

Warning:

Always unplug the unit 

from electrical outlet before opening 

the Dust Cup (container).

1. To open the Dust Cup (container), 

push button and detach the Dust 

Cup (container ). (Fig. 2)

(Fig. 3)

Important:

Do 

NOT

use the HEPA filter 

cartridge without the debris screen in 

place.

Warning

:

After each Use - Always 

remove the Filter Debris Screen 

from the HEPA  Dust Cup Filter, then 

vigorously “

TapClean

” HEPA Filter until 

no more dust can be removed.

IMPORTANT, Please Note : 

The 

“TapClean” HEPA Dust Cup Filter & 

Debris Screen will stop most of the tiniest 

dust particles and airborne allergens from 

re-entering the air you breathe. In fact it 

stops 99.97% of all particles as small as 

0.3 microns - many times smaller than a 

human hair!!! Because of this incredible 

filtration performance, the HEPA Dust Cup 

Filter will quickly accumulate, inside the 

white filter folds, many fine dust particles 

that are difficult to see but which will 

eventually block or reduce your suction 

power - if not cleaned properly. Clean the 

HEPA Filter and Debris Screen after each 

use as described in this section.

3. Empty the dust from 

the Dust Cup 

(container). (Fig. 4)

4. Separate the debris 

screen from the

HEPA filter cartridge 

by grasping the 

debris screen with 

one hand and the filter frame with the 

other and pull apart. (Fig. 5)

and push the On/Off button. The 

vacuum should start again.

• If the vacuum still does not start, 

contact customer service at

The efficiency of your air driven turbo 

brush depends on the bristle brush 

rotating at high speed. Strong air suction 

is needed to accomplish this. In order to 

ensure that maximum air suction is 

maintained, please read the following 

instructions:
1. Empty the dust cup frequently.

2. Always "TAPCLEAN" the HEPA dust 

cup filter when emptying the dust cup 

container.

3. Ensure that the rotating brush is kept 

free of hair and string which may 

accumulate and decrease brush 

performance.

4. Keep Air Driven Turbo Brush turbine 

free of dirt and foreign matter. (See 

illustration below for cleaning 

instructions.)
