2. Installation Instructions

Follow these steps to properly install your new MaximalPower foam and felt filters. For specific details on accessing your vacuum's filter compartment, refer to your Shark NV600 Professional Vacuum Cleaner's original user manual.

1. Safety First: Always ensure your vacuum cleaner is turned off and unplugged from the power outlet before attempting any maintenance or filter replacement.
2. Locate Filter Compartment: The pre-motor filters are typically located beneath the dust cup assembly on the main body of the vacuum.
3. Remove Old Filters: Open the filter compartment and carefully remove the existing foam and felt filters. Dispose of them responsibly if they are no longer usable.
4. Insert New Felt Filter: Place the new MaximalPower felt filter into the compartment first, ensuring it lies flat and covers the entire base.
5. Insert New Foam Filter: Position the new MaximalPower foam filter directly on top of the felt filter. Ensure it fits snugly into its designated space.
6. Secure Compartment: Close the filter compartment securely. Ensure all latches or covers are properly fastened before operating the vacuum.

3. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning of your MaximalPower foam and felt filters is crucial for maintaining optimal vacuum performance and extending filter lifespan. These filters are reusable and washable.

Cleaning Frequency:

• Clean filters every 3 to 6 months, or more frequently with heavy use.
• Replace filters every 1 to 2 years, or if they show signs of damage, wear, or cannot be cleaned effectively.

Cleaning Steps:

1. Remove Filters: Turn off and unplug the vacuum. Remove the foam and felt filters as described in the installation section.
2. Tap Off Debris: Gently tap the filters over a trash can to remove loose dirt and debris.
3. Rinse Filters: Rinse both filters under running tap water until the water runs clear. Do not use soap or detergents.
4. Squeeze Excess Water: Gently squeeze the foam filter to remove excess water. Do not twist or wring the felt filter.
5. Air Dry Completely: Allow both filters to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinstallation. Ensure they are completely dry to prevent mold growth and damage to the vacuum. Do not use a clothes dryer, hairdryer, or any other heat source.
6. Reinstall: Once completely dry, reinstall the filters into your vacuum cleaner following the installation instructions.
