For use without bag
We recommend you empty the dust receptacle and clean the permanent
lter at least each season, depending on use of your central vacuum.
1. To empty the dust receptacle:
Disconnect the unit from the electric outlet.
Unlatch the two clips, remove the receptacle
(figure 18), and empty into an appropriate
container.
2. To clean the permanent lter (figure 19):
• Do not remove the lter
• Wrap the lter and the lower portion of the unit
body within a large plastic bag. Hold it tightly
around the unit with one hand.
• With your other hand, gently shake the lter.
• Wait a few seconds for the dust to settle
before removing the plastic bag.
3. Replace the dust receptacle and seal with the
help of the two clips.
4. Reconnect the unit to the electric outlet.
Note:
Should the filter become stained, or emit an
unpleasant odor, it may be washed in cold
water (without bleach). Rinse and dry well
before replacing. Do not tumble dry.
