REPLACING OR CLEANING THE HEPA FILTER AND FRAME
1. Remove the dust container by using the open button on the handle.
2. a) Remove the HEPA filter complete with frame from the dust container after releasing
the locking clips on the side of the filter frame.
b) Tap the HEPA filter face down on a flat surface covered with a sheet of paper; this
will dislodge excess residue from the HEPA filter. Dispose of the cover sheet with the
dust residue.
3. If necessary, the HEPA filter and frame can be washed with cold water under a tap
(wash from the underside not the topside).
4. Air dry the HEPA filter for approximately 24 hours to ensure it is completely dry before
re-using. Avoid direct sunlight and extreme drying circumstances. If you wish to use
your appliance while the HEPA filter is drying, you can use the spare HEPA filter enclosed
in the packaging carton.
5. a) Refit the HEPA filter and frame by firstly pressing the button on the left hand side of
the dust container.
b) Position the HEPA filter and frame with tab aligning with the button on the side of
the dust container.
c) Insert the HEPA filter and frame, ensuring the locking clips positioned on both sides
of the frame are secured.
1. Insert the dust container back into the cleaner by pressing it down until it clicks.
NOTE:
Do not use cleaning agents and avoid touching the delicate filter surface.
