Introduction
Replacing a clogged or old HEPA filter can significantly help reduce abnormal noise levels and improve the overall air quality and smell emitted by your vacuum cleaner.
Step 1: Remove the HEPA Filter Cover
The HEPA filter is housed behind a protective cover on the front of the vacuum cleaner. The cover is secured by a latch.

- Locate the latch at the bottom of the HEPA filter housing on the front of the vacuum. Press this latch downwards.
- While holding the latch, pull the grey and blue plastic cover outwards and away from the vacuum body to detach it.
Step 2: Remove the HEPA Filter
Once the cover is removed, the HEPA filter itself can be accessed and pulled out.

- Grasp the grey plastic tab located in the middle of the HEPA filter grate.
