Replacing The Filter - Shark S1215C Instruction Manual

REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

REPLACING THE FILTER

Under normal usage, the HEPA Filter will require replacement once every
three (3) months, however, vacuuming large amounts of extremely fine dust,
powder or similar material over a long period of time may decrease airflow
performance through the filter. If this occurs, it may become necessary to
replace the HEPA Filter more often. Only use genuine Euro-Pro replacement
filters.
Press in the locking tabs at points

vacuum cleaner.

Caution: Do not wash the sub-filter in a washing machine, and do not use any other equipment
such as a hair dryer to dry it. Always allow 24 hours for drying. Do not operate
the vacuum without the sub-filter. Be sure the sub-filter is dry and properly installed.
Failure to do so could result in electrical shock, personal injury, or motor failure.
