CLEANING THE DUST CANISTER

(see figures 4 - 6)

that dust cannot fall out of the dust
canister when the vacuum cleaner is
opened.
2. Press release button and remove the dust
canister from the motor housing.
3. Reach into the recess on the motor
housing and pull the filter unit off the motor
housing by the filter seal.
4. Shake/tap out the dust canister over a
suitable waste bin.
5. If required, clean the dust canister with a
moist cloth.
If required, clean the filter assembly (see
"Cleaning the Filter Assembly", page 10).
6. Insert the filter unit with the filter seal back
into the motor housing if removed for
cleaning.
Afterwards, hang the dust canister at the
bottom into the motor housing, apply light
pressure until the dust canister can be
heard to engage.
