Maintenance
Dirt Receptacle (C2, CI4, CI6 and CI10 models)
Occasional maintenance of the dirt receptacle is necessary to ensure constant,
lasting performance. We recommend that it be emptied at least every season,
depending on frequency of use. To empty the dust receptacle, first disconnect
your vacuum cleaner from its power source. Then release the two clamps, lower
and empty the recipient, then replace it and seal by refastening the metal clamps.
Filters (C2, CI4, CI6 and CI10 models)
Your central vacuum system is equipped with a
Teflon* self-cleaning, permanent HEPA filter. This
filter is designed to ensure high performance
and long term reliability of your vacuum motor(s).
It’s recommended to clean the filter when
emptying the dirt container. To clean the filter,
first remove the dirt container. Next, remove
the filter by grabbing the filter strap and pulling
the filter downward (A). You may shake the
filter, wash the filter or replace the filter. Before
re-installing the filter, inspect it for tears or
punctures. If damaged or worn, replace with a
new filter. Do not re-install a damaged filter or
one that is still wet or damp.
Carefully install the filter in the support groove to
ensure adequate protection of the motor(s) (B).
Note: When washing the filter, wash in cold
water (no bleach) and dry at a low temperature.
It is important that the filter is completely dry
before it is re-installed.
Carbon Dust Filter
(B2, BF4, BF6 and BF10 Models)
We recommend changing this filter after three
bag replacements. The integrated monitor
will indicate when to change the filter. These
indications are provided by an electronic
timing board, only as a reference guide.
To do so:
1. Unlatch the opening on the carbon filter
case and gently flip it upward (A).
2. Remove the used filter, and discard (B).
3. Insert the new filter. When doing so, please
ensure that the arrow printed on the filter
itself points outwards (C).
4. Close casing, and latch.
