To maximize your cleaning performance and
extend the life of your vacuum, it is very
important that you empty your dirt container
and check and clean your filters frequently.
Perform the following maintenance steps:
1. Empty the dirt container when the dirt reaches
the “Full” line on the container, or more frequently
to prevent overfills. For best performance, empty
after each use.
2. Check the pre-motor filter and post-motor HEPA
media filter at least once a month and clean or
replace as needed.
NOTE: Be sure to clean or replace your
filters anytime the clean filter indicator
(select models only) begins to turn red.
3. Replace the post-motor HEPA media filter
every three to six months.
NOTE: More frequent filter cleaning may be
necessary if you are vacuuming new carpet,
fine dust, or have allergy concerns. Follow
the instructions on the following pages to
perform these simple maintenance steps.
Empty dirt container
The dirt container needs to be emptied when the
dirt reaches the “Full” line on the container.
1. Unplug the vacuum from electrical outlet
2. Slide the Lock ‘n Seal Lever to the “Unlock”
position.
3. Grasp handle and pull the dirt container
straight out to remove from the vacuum.
4. Empty dirt into garbage container.
NOTE: Emptying the dirt container after
every use will help prevent overfilling and
ensure that the vacuum is ready to go the
next time you clean.
WARNING:

shock, turn power switch OFF
and disconnect plug from
