MAINTENANCE AND CARE
CLEANING THE DIRT
CONTAINER FILTER
The key to maximum performance is a
clean filter. Cleaning the filter after each
use will help your FORCE 8 vacuum
operate at peak efficiency.
1.
Follow the steps 1 to 4 on page 7
to remove and open the dirt
container.
2.
Unlock the dirt container filter
from the vacuum by turning it
anticlockwise. Pull the filter straight
down to remove it.
3.
Remove the dirt container filter
screen by grasping the bottom of
the filter frame base and pulling the
screen straight up. Parts separate
by slowly pulling vertically upwards
on the filter screen. Do not use
excessive force.
4.
The dirt container filter screen and
dirt container filter can be hand
washed in cold water with a mild
detergent.
Rinse well and air dry
thoroughly before placing back
together.
5.
Attach the dirt container filter
screen back onto the dirt container
filter by sliding it down over the dirt
container filter, making sure that
the three tabs on the top of the dirt
container filter screen line up with
the notches on the dirt container
filter.
6.
Insert the dirt container filter
assembly back into the dirt
container by lining up the three
tabs on the top of the dirt container
filter assembly with the three
notches inside the top of the dirt
container and turning the dirt
container filter assembly clockwise
to lock it into place.
Never operate your FORCE 8 vacuum without all
the filters in place. Doing so may damage the motor
and void the guarantee.
