Cleaning Filters

Regularly clean the foam and felt filters to maintain optimal suction. Remove the dust cup, then pull out the foam and felt filters. Rinse them with water and allow them to air dry completely before reinserting. It is recommended to clean filters monthly.

Cleaning the Brushroll

The self-cleaning brushroll is designed to prevent hair wrap. However, if any debris or hair becomes tangled, carefully remove it using scissors or by hand. Ensure the vacuum is unplugged before performing any maintenance on the brushroll.
