pressed on to the HEPA filter, Figure 14.
The filter can be hand washed with water
and a mild detergent.
Once the HEPA filter is cleaned and dried,
push the filter cover back on and fit the
assembly back into its housing by turning it
clockwise until it locks into position.
Close the lid (19).
Fit the container back into its housing on
the vacuum cleaner, Figure 15.
IMPORTANT: Leave the HEPA filter to dry
for 24 hours before refitting it.

ding on use). You can get these replace­
ments at your local shopping centre or
