6.3 Cleaning the Brush Roller
Even with self-cleaning, periodically inspect the brush roller for tangled hair or debris. Remove the brush roller cover, take out the roller, and use the provided cleaning tool to remove any obstructions. Rinse the roller with water if necessary and allow it to dry completely before reinserting.
6.4 Cleaning the Filter
The washable filter should be rinsed with water every few uses or when suction power decreases. Allow the filter to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinserting it into the vacuum. Do not operate the vacuum without a dry filter.
6.5 Deep Cleaning Pipes
To prevent pipe clogging, it is recommended to perform a deep cleaning of the machine every two weeks. Use the included cleaning brush from the accessory kit to remove any residual hair and debris from the machine’s pipes, avoiding long-term buildup that may affect cleaning performance.
