Your EASY VAC
features a translucent plastic Dirt Cup, so
you can easily see when it needs to be emptied. For best
performance, empty when debris reaches halfway up the cup.
1. Press the lock button down and forward
(away from the Canister Handle) while
lifting the upper portion of the Dirt Cup
away from the Canister.
2. Grasp the Filter frame and pull it straight
from the Cup. Empty the Cup, and check
both the filter and the Cup for cleanliness
and damage. You may wash the Cup with
warm (not hot) water and mild liquid dish
soap only. Rinse and dry thoroughly before
reattaching it.
3. If the surface of the filter looks dirty or
discoloured, now’s the time to clean or
replace it. To clean the filter, remove any debris still clinging
to the filter. After a time, it will be necessary to replace your
filter. See “Routine Maintenance” for instructions.
4. With filter in place at the top of the Cup,* place the small
tab at the bottom of the Canister cavity, then press the upper
portion of the Cup into place until the lock button can
easily be pushed back into position.
*Push filter down tight to ensure gasket is in place.
When you are done using your BISSELL
EASY VAC,

2. Unplug Power Cord by grasping the
polarized plug [NOT the cord) and
disconnect from outlet.
