- Extension Tubes: Use with other attachments to extend reach for higher or lower areas.
For optimal performance, ensure the dust cup is not overfilled and the filter is clean before each use.
Maintenance
1. Emptying the Dust Cup
- Ensure the vacuum is turned off.
- Locate the dust cup release button, typically near the nozzle. Press the button to detach the dust cup.
- Hold the dust cup over a trash receptacle and empty its contents.
- Reattach the dust cup to the vacuum until it clicks securely into place.
2. Cleaning the HEPA Filter
Regular cleaning of the HEPA filter is crucial for maintaining suction power and air quality.
- With the dust cup detached, carefully remove the HEPA filter.
- Tap the filter gently over a trash can to remove loose dust and debris.
- If necessary, rinse the filter under cool running water until the water runs clear. Do not use hot water or detergents.
- Allow the filter to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinserting it into the vacuum. Do not use the vacuum with a wet filter.
- Reinsert the dry HEPA filter and reattach the dust cup.
