Filter Care

The HEPA filters included with this vacuum are long life
filters. To be effective in minimizing dust recirculation,
especially in lead paint (EPA RRP Rule) applications, the
filters MUST be installed correctly and in good condition.

cord from outlet.
2. Release canister latches

upside down.

4. Inspect filters for wear, tears or other damage.
nOTE: If there is any doubt on the condition of the
filters, they MUST be replaced. DO NOT continue use if
filters are damaged.

WARNING: Never use compressed air or a brush to
clean filters, otherwise damage to the filter membrane
will occur which will allow dust to pass through the
filter. If needed, rinse with room temperature water
and let air dry. Cleaning of the filters is typically
unnecessary. Even if the filter is covered with dust,
the automatic filter cleaning system will maintain
maximum performance and continue to function. If
visual damage to the filter membrane exists, replace
filters. Filters typically last between six and twelve
months, depending on use and care.
