Cleaning the Post-Motor Filters

HEPA

Media Filter*

The HEPA Media Filter* and the Post-

Motor Filter are located in the back

of your canister, between the power

button and automatic cord rewind. To

access the post-motor filters, lift up on

both of the filter storage tabs to open

the post-motor filter compartment. Both

filters should be regularly checked, and

cleaned if they appear dirty or if you

notice excessive amounts of dust inside

the canister. They need to be replaced if

severely damaged or torn.

Cleaning / Replacing

the HEPA Media Filter*

NOTE: The HEPA Media Filter* is a

white, pleated filter. This filter is NOT

washable. If this filter is damaged or

worn, it will need to be replaced.

1. Unplug the vacuum from the electrical outlet.

2. Lift up on both of the filter storage tabs

to open the post-motor filter compartment.

3. Remove the HEPA Media Filter* by

grasping the lip of the filter frame and

lifting upwards.

NOTE: The HEPA Media Filter*

should not be touched; when

handling be sure to touch only the

white plastic frame.

4. To clean the HEPA Media Filter*, hold over

a trash can and gently tap the frame of the

filter to remove excess dust.

NOTE: If the HEPA Media Filter*

is still excessively dirty, or is

damaged or torn, it will need to

be replaced.

5. Replace the filter in the compartment, with the

white plastic tab facing out.

6. Press down on the filter storage door and snap

back into place to close the filter compartment.

*The filter media, not the vacuum as a whole,

complies with the IEST-RP-CC001.5 or the

EN-1822-1:2009 HEPA standard.

Tip:

For maximum cleaning

performance, check the

filters often and clean or

replace if necessary.

WARNING:

Do not operate cleaner with

damp or wet filters or

without all filters in place.
