5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your vacuum cleaner.

- Press the release button to detach the dust compartment from the main unit.
- Position the dust compartment over a waste bin and open the bottom flap to empty the contents.

Cleaning the Filters
The multi-cyclonic filtration system includes washable filters. Clean them periodically to prevent loss of suction.
- With the dust compartment removed, locate the filters.
- Carefully remove the filters. Tap them gently over a bin to remove loose dust.
- Rinse the filters under cold running water until the water runs clear. Do not use detergents.
- Allow the filters to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinserting them. Do not use a hairdryer or other heating devices.
- Reassemble the filters and dust compartment once fully dry.
Cleaning Attachments and Hose
Periodically check the hose and attachments for blockages. Clear any obstructions to maintain airflow.
- Disconnect attachments and the hose from the main unit.
- Visually inspect for any debris or blockages. Use a long, blunt object to carefully dislodge any obstructions.
- Wipe attachments with a damp cloth if necessary. Ensure they are dry before reattaching.
