5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Powering On/Off and Mode Selection

The vacuum can be controlled either onboard or via the included wireless remote.

• To Power On: Press the power button on the vacuum or the remote control.
• To Select Power Mode: Cycle through Low, High, and Turbo modes by pressing the mode selection button on the vacuum or remote. Each mode offers different suction power and battery runtime.
• To Power Off: Press the power button again.

5.2 Dry Vacuuming

For dry debris, ensure the cartridge filter is clean and properly installed. Use appropriate nozzles for different surfaces (e.g., large floor nozzle for open areas, crevice nozzle for tight spaces).

5.3 Wet Vacuuming

For liquid spills, remove the cartridge filter before wet vacuuming to prevent damage. The vacuum is equipped with a float mechanism that will shut off suction when the tank is full to prevent overfilling. Once the float rises, turn off the vacuum and empty the tank.

5.4 Filter Cleaning Function

The vacuum features a filter cleaning function to maintain maximum suction efficiency. Consult the vacuum's onboard controls or remote for instructions on activating this function. Typically, it involves a reverse airflow pulse to dislodge dust from the filter.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Emptying the Tank

After wet or dry use, especially when the tank is full, empty the contents. The 9-gallon tank includes a drain plug for easy liquid disposal. For dry debris, unlatch the motor head and lift it off to empty the tank.

6.2 Filter Maintenance

• Cartridge Filter: For dry vacuuming, regularly clean the cartridge filter by tapping it gently to remove dust or using the filter cleaning function. For heavily soiled filters, wash with mild soap and water, then allow to air dry completely before reinstallation.
• Foam Filter (for wet use, if applicable): If your model includes a foam filter for wet use, rinse it with water and allow it to air dry.
• Replace filters when they show signs of wear or damage, or if suction power significantly decreases even after cleaning.

6.3 Accessory Storage

Utilize the onboard storage to conveniently stow nozzles, extension tubes, and the hose when not in use. This helps keep accessories organized and easily accessible.
