or damage to the cleaner.

Regular maintenance

NOTICE:
Clean the filters in the cyclone unit
when they become clogged. Continued use in the
clogged condition may result in heating or motor
malfunction.
NOTICE:
Do not blow dust sticking on the
cleaner and filters by air duster. It brings dust into
the housing and causes failure.
Routine maintenance is required to restore normal
operating conditions.
Cleaner body
Wipe off the outside (cleaner body) of the cleaner using
a cloth dampened in soapy water, and clean out the
suction openings.
