Cleaning and Maintenance
How do I clean the filters and how often?
For optimal performance, clean the fabric filter at least once a month. Rinse filter with water only until water runs clear. Do not use soap or other cleaners. Let filter air-dry for at least 24 hours until completely dry before reinstalling. Between cleanings, lightly tap the filter over the trash to release any excess dust and debris.
How do I empty the dust cup and how often?
For optimal performance, empty the dust cup each time you vacuum.
Turn off the vacuum and hold it over the trash with the nozzle pointing down. Locate the dust cup release button on the top of the vacuum and slide it forward, and the dust cup will drop open. Tap lightly to loosen debris. Wipe the inside of the dust cup clean as needed.
