Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your vacuum cleaner. Always unplug the unit before performing any maintenance.
1. Emptying the Tank

- Foam Filter (for wet use): After wet vacuuming, remove the foam filter and rinse it thoroughly with water. Allow it to air dry completely before reinstallation or storage.
- Filter Bag: Replace the filter bag when it is full or when suction power decreases significantly.
