NORMAL and will NOT affect the
performance of the filter.
Warning: To reduce the risk of electric
shock, the power cord must be
disconnected before removing the dust
cup, dust cup filter,changing the filters or
performing maintenance/trouble shooting
checks.
The “Dust Cup” must always be emptied
when the dirt level reaches the "FULL"
line on the dust cup. To remove the dust
cup from the vacuum:
1. Press down on the dust cup
release button that is located on
the handle of the dust cup.
(Fig. 6)
2. Holding the dust cup from the
handle, pull the dust cup out
from the vacuum. (Fig. 7)
IMPORTANT, Please Note : The Rinseable
“TapClean” HEPA Dust Cup 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 Dust Cup Filter will quickly
accumulate many fine dust particles inside
the white filter folds that are difficult to see
but which will eventually block or reduce
your suction power - if not cleaned properly.
Clean the HEPA Filter after each use as
described in this section.
1. To remove the HEPA
filter, remove the dust cup from the
unit.
Warning: Always empty the dust cup
and clean the HEPA dust cup filter
before each use and during prolonged
usage. Never over fill the dust cup -
remove dirt and clean the HEPA dust
cup filter each time the dust cup is
emptied during prolonged usage or risk
motor damage.
Cleaning the HEPA Filter Frame
1. Before replacing the HEPA filter in the
HEPA Filter frame, you can (should)
rinse the frame in lukewarm water by
just running it under the tap to remove
any dust that is adhering to the frame.
