CLEANING THE HEPA PRE-MOTOR FILTER 
Important, Please Note. The HEPA Pre-Motor Filter will stop most of the tiniest 

dust particles and airborne allergens from re-entering the air you breathe. In fact 
it stops 99.95% of all particles as small as 0.3 microns-many times smaller than a 
human hair! Because of this incredible filtration performance, the 

HEPA

 Pre-Motor 

Filter will accumulate many fine dust particles that are difficult to see. Be assured that 
the 

HEPA

 Pre-Motor Filter is doing the job. Clean the 

HEPA

 Pre-Motor Filter after 

each use as described in this section.

1.  Remove the Shake-Out Bag from the canister. The 

HEPA

 Pre-Motor Filter is

located underneath the Shake-Out Bag. To remove the 

HEPA

 Pre-Contents into a

motor filter, lift the form the sides of the 

HEPA

 filter.

2.  Vigorously “Tap Clean” the 

HEPA

 Pre-Motor Filter on a hard surface to remove

any residual dust that might still be on the 

HEPA

 Pre-Motor Filter.

3.  You can wash the 

HEPA

 Pre-Motor Filter by running it under the tap and allowing

the water to run on the dirty side at least once a month or when suction appears
to be decreased.

Wash once a month or when suction appears reduced.

WARNING

 Allow 24 hours for drying before replacing in unit.
