How to Replace Roomba's Air Filter
The Air Filter (located in the Filter Door on the underside of Roomba's Particle
Bin) needs to be replaced if it becomes punctured or if you notice a decline in the
cleaning performance of Roomba. Two spare Replacement Filters are included
with Roomba; additional Replacement Filters are currently available in packs of
three. Check www.roombavac.com for purchase options.
Figure 1: Accessing the Filter Chamber. Open the Filter Door on the bottom of the Particle
Bin by releasing the small Tab on the Filter Door as shown and pulling the Tab upward.
Clean the debris from this chamber each time you empty the Particle Bin.
NOTE: Always carry Roomba by its handle and never tilt it forward, as debris
may spill out of the particle bin.
1. Turn Roomba's Main Power Switch to the Off position.
2. Press down on the Particle Bin's Release Tab while simultaneously pulling the
Particle Bin straight back.
3. Flip the Particle Bin over to access the Filter Door.
4. Release the small Tab on the Filter Door and pull the Filter Door upward. See
Figure 1.
