Emptying the Dust Tank:
Note:
: Ensure the vacuum cleaner is turned off and unplugged from the mains
before emptying the dust tank.
1. To remove the dust tank from the vacuum cleaner, press the release button
on the main body of the unit, then pull the tank firmly towards you and away
from the main body of the vacuum.
2. Once the dust tank has been removed, pull out the filter from inside and tap it
over a rubbish bin or similar surface to remove any dust residue. Once the filter
is clean, rinse it under running water and leave it to dry.
3. If necessary, tap the dust tank over a rubbish bin or similar surface to remove
any dust residue left inside it.
Note:
Ensure the unit is thoroughly clean and the filter is completely dry before
attempting to use or store it.
4. Ensure the filter is inserted back into the unit before attempting to use it
again. If the filter is not installed, the dust tank may not properly attach to the
unit. Refer to the illustrations below for guidance on how to reattach the filter
and dust tank.
Note:
Use the small notch on the filter casing and half-moon shape inside the filter
itself as guides when replacing the filter into the dust tank. The filter is correctly
positioned when the small notch on the casing is aligned with the corresponding
tab on the main body of the dust tank, the half-moon shape on the filter is facing
upwards, and the grooved area on the dust cup itself is facing downwards.
