4. MAINTENANCE

Dirt Cup & Filter Removal & Replacement

IMPORTANT: For best results, clean after each use.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE: Each time the dirt cup is emptied, the filter should be cleaned (Filter will be discolored

after use. This will not affect the filter’s performance.)

An internal thermal protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating. When the
thermal protector activates the brushroll will stop running.

If this happens proceed as follows:

1. Turn cleaner OFF and unplug it from the electrical outlet.
2. Inspect the nozzle base, dirt cup inlet openings, and dirt tube for any obstructions. Clear

obstructions if present.

3. When cleaner is unplugged and motor cools for 30 minutes, the thermal protector will deactivate and

cleaning may continue.

If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner needs servicing.

NOTICE

4. MAINTENANCE

Continued

Any other servicing should be done by an authorized service representative.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury, unplug before cleaning or servicing.

In order to maintain optimum performance of your cleaner, each time

the dirt cup is removed for emptying it is recommended to check if there

is any debris trapped in the dirt tube (A). If so, remove the debris before

re-attaching the dirt cup to the cleaner.
If you still are experiencing reduced suction/performance, detach

the nozzle base from the main unit (press button on back of nozzle

to release, B) and inspect both openings of the nozzle base (C) for

any trapped debris. Remove any debris that may be present before

re-attaching the nozzle base to the main body of the cleaner.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury, unplug before

cleaning or servicing.
