Washing instructions for HEPA 12 washable filter

Rinse the pleated side of the HEPA 12 filter under a hot

slow-running tap (Fig. 1).

Hold the filter in such a way that the pleated side points

upwards and the water flows parallel to the pleats. Hold the

filter at an angle so that the water washes away the dirt inside

the pleats (Fig. 2).

Turn the filter 180° and let the water flow along the pleats

in opposite direction.

Continue this process until the filter is clean.

Note: Cleaning does not restore the original colour of the filter, but

does restore its filtration power.
Never clean the washable filter with a brush (Fig. 3).

Carefully shake the water from the surface of the filter. Let

the filter dry at least 2 hours before you put it back into the

vacuum cleaner.

Note: The HEPA 12 filter can be cleaned max. 4 times. Replace the

filter after it has been cleaned 4 times.
