3. Maintenance and Care
Regular cleaning and timely replacement of your F1 HEPA filter are crucial for maintaining your vacuum's performance and air filtration efficiency.
Cleaning the Filter
While the filter is designed for durability, it is recommended to tap off loose debris after each use.
- After emptying the dirt cup, gently tap the filter against a trash can to dislodge accumulated dust and debris.
- For deeper cleaning, some filters may be rinsed with water. Consult your vacuum's specific manual or the filter packaging for reusability instructions. Ensure the filter is completely dry before reinstallation to prevent damage to the vacuum motor.
Filter Replacement
For best performance and filtration, it is recommended to replace the F1 HEPA filter annually, or more frequently depending on usage and household conditions (e.g., pets, high dust levels). The filter features a "Write-On Reminder" on the top cap to note the installation date.
4. Troubleshooting
Reduced Suction Power
- Check if the filter is clogged with excessive dust or debris. Clean or replace the filter as instructed in the Maintenance section.
- Ensure the filter is correctly installed and seated securely in the dirt cup.
- Verify that the dirt cup is properly attached to the vacuum.
Unusual Odors
- A dirty or old filter can cause odors. Replace the filter if it has been in use for an extended period or if odors persist after cleaning.
