and Cleaning / Changing the Non-
Woven Pre-Filter, HEPA Filter &
Debris Screen
2. To empty the dust
cup container,
press on the trap
door release button
that is on the back
side of the dust cup
container. (Fig. 10)
Warning: Always unplug the
unit from electrical outlet before
opening the Dust Cup (container).
IMPORTANT, Please Note : The
“TapClean” HEPA Filter will stop most of
the tiniest dust particles and airborne
allergens from re-entering the air you
breathe. In fact it stops 99.97% of all
particles as small as 0.3 microns - many
times smaller than a human hair!!!
Because of this incredible filtration
performance, the HEPA Filter will quickly
accumulate, inside the white filter folds,
many fine dust particles that are difficult
to see but which will eventually block or
reduce your suction power - if not
cleaned properly.
1. To remove the dust cup container,
first press on the dust cup release
button (1) that is located on the dust
cup handle and at the same time
press on the dust cup release button
(2) that is on the side of the upper
housing (Fig. 9). Then pull the dust
cup container out.
