Maintenance and care (continued)
Cleaning the upper tank
1. Grasp the inner cyclone and twist to the left
or to the unlocked marking, until the locking
tabs stop the rotation. Pull down from the
upper tank to remove it.
2. Wipe out the inside of the upper tank and the
inner cyclone with a damp cloth moistened
with water or a mild cleaning solution.
3. If you desire to thoroughly clean the louvers
located in the upper portion of the inner
cyclone, hold the bottom of the cyclone and
gently pull straight up on the louvers.
4. The inner cyclone and louvers may be
washed using a mild detergent. Be sure it
is completely dry before reassembling or
damage to your unit may result.
5. Once cleaning is completed, reassemble the
louvers over the inner cyclone by
sliding it straight down on the top of the
inner cyclone. Be sure to line up the tabs
when reassembling for proper installation.
6. To replace the inner cyclone, slide it into
the upper housing. Be sure to line up the
inner cyclone by having the marking (Front)
positioned toward the front of the unit. Push
the inner cyclone in and rotate it to the right
or locked marking until the locking tabs stop
the rotation.
