Pre-Motor
Filter
PLEASE NOTE: The white pleated filter
material in the HEPA Filter will discolor
over time -This is NORMAL and will
NOT affect the performance of the filter.
If the HEPA Filter
is properly
"TapCleaned”
after each use
and suction
does not return
to 100%, then
we suggest that
the HEPA filter
be “TapCleaned”
vigorously until
no more dust
can be removed,
then rinsed under the faucet and allowed
to dry for 24 hours before refitting into
the vacuum. (Fig. A) This should be
done once a month or when suction
appears to be reduced.
Warning: Allow 24
hours for drying before
replacing in unit.
Please Note: The HEPA Filter is
washable. It should, however, be
replaced every three (3) to six (6) months
to ensure peak performance of your
vacuum.
The non-woven pre-filter, pre-motor and
post motor filters are washable. They
should however be replaced every three
(3) months to ensure peak performance of
your vacuum.
Important: Make sure that ALL filters
have completely air dried before re-
installing back in the vacuum.
Never over fill the dust cup container -
remove dirt and clean the HEPA filter,
non-woven pre-filter and debris screen
when dirt in dust cup is at or below the
"MAX" level during prolonged usage or
risk motor damage.
If you wash the Hepa filter or the non-
woven pre-filter, make sure that they
have completely air dried before
inserting back in the vacuum.
Warning: Always empty the dust
cup container and clean the HEPA
filter, Non-Woven Pre-Filter and
Debris Screen before each use
and during prolonged usage.
CAUTION : The suction hole must
be open, free of any obstructions at
all times. Otherwise, the motor will
overheat and could become
