Maintenance

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

1. Emptying the Dirt Cup

Empty the dirt cup after each use or when debris reaches the MAX fill line. To empty, detach the dirt cup from the main unit and dispose of the contents. The large, easy-empty dirt cup minimizes trips to the trash can.

2. Cleaning the Filter

The vacuum uses a foam filter. For best performance, clean the filter regularly. Remove the filter from the dirt cup, tap off loose dirt, and rinse under running water. Allow the filter to air dry completely before reinserting it into the vacuum. Do not use the vacuum without a dry filter.

3. Cleaning the Motorized Pet Brush Roll

Periodically check the motorized pet brush roll for tangled hair or debris. To clean, remove the brush roll from its housing (refer to the diagram on the product for specific release mechanisms). Use scissors to cut away any tangled hair or threads. Reinsert the brush roll securely.
