& lift
up down
on
the dust container. Once released carefully lift the
container upwards.
To empty the dust container simply place it above
the rubbish bin; press the “push to empty” button.
The bottom of the container will release and the
dust and compiled dirt will be dispensed.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE THE UNIT WITHOUT A DUST
CONTAINER IN PLACE.
CLEANING AND REPLACING FILTERS
Filters must be cleaned from time to time to remove
the fine dust particles that have been collected.
If filters are left uncleaned, it may result in a
reduction of suction power. Should this occur, the
following procedure should be applied every couple
of months.
Remove the dust container from the unit by
pressing down on the “Press and Lift” button
on/off cord
press
& lift
up down
.
Then press the “Push to Empty” button. The
bottom of the container will release. Take off
the filter bracket by holding onto the shaft and
turning the filter in an anti-clockwise direction
and the filter and its bracket will be released.
To remove the metal filter bracket, simply lift it
vertically. The filter bracket can be rinsed in luke
warm water. Ensure you let the filter bracket
completely dry naturally before replacing.
Shake and tap the HEPA filter until all the fine
dust particles are removed. After approximately
6 months the HEPA filter should be replaced.
The central filter can be washed in warm water.
Allow to air dry completely before replacing.
NOTE: Do not use any detergents or boiling water
to wash the filter, do not wash the filter in a
dishwasher or washing machine.
Allow to completely air dry before re-
assembling and replacing.
NOTE: Do not dry in a tumble dryer, microwave,
oven or near a naked flame. The filter and filter case
must be completely dry before replacing into the
vacuum.
To place the filter back in the dust container,
simply place the metal filter bracket directly
over the HEPA filter, ensure that the metal filter
holder is completely dry before use. Ensure that
the grooves on the HEPA filter holder and metal
filter bracket fit into place.
Simply place the filter unit in the dust container
lid and turn the filter unit in a clockwise
direction until it is clicked in place. Close the
bottom of the container.
Place the dust container back in the vacuum
cleaner for next use.
