Maintenance
1. Emptying the Dustbin
Regularly empty the dustbin to maintain optimal suction. To empty, detach the dustbin from the main unit and open the bottom flap over a trash receptacle. Close securely after emptying.
2. Cleaning the Filter
The vacuum uses a disk filter. Periodically remove and clean the filter by tapping it gently to dislodge dust or rinsing it with water. Ensure the filter is completely dry before reinserting it into the vacuum.
3. Anti-Tangle Brush Maintenance
The anti-tangle brush is designed to minimize hair wrap. However, inspect the brush roll regularly for any tangled hair or debris. Use scissors to carefully cut away any stubborn tangles and remove them to ensure the brush operates effectively.
