MAINTAINING YOUR VACUUM

CLEANING THE AUTO-EMPTY DOCK FILTER
To access the filter in the dock, remove the Filter
Door. Press the button at the bottom of the door,
then tilt the door and lift it off. Remove the filter
from the dock. After the filter has been rinsed
and dried, reinstall it by reinserting it into the
dock and replacing the filter door.
For best results, clean your Auto-Empty filters at least once a month and replace the filters regularly. To clean filters, rinse with cold water
ONLY to prevent damage from cleaning chemicals. Allow all filters to air-dry for at least 24 hours before reinstalling them to prevent
liquid from being drawn into electrical parts. Maintaining your Exhaust Foam Filter will ensure successful Auto-Empty evacuation.

CLEANING THE LIGHTDETECT SESNOR
Make sure to clean the Detect sensors
regularly, as hair and other debris may build
up and obstruct them. If the sensors are
partially obstructed, Auto mode will not
function as expected.
To clean the sensors :
1. Turn off power and remove the floor nozzle.
2. Locate the DirtDetect Sensor in the nozzle
of the hand vac (Fig. 1), the LightDetect
Sensor on the top of the nozzle (Fig. 2),
and the EdgeDetect sensor on the side of
the nozzle (Fig. 3).
3. Gently wipe the sensors with a microfiber
cloth and remove all hair and debris.
4. Reattach the floor nozzle to the rest of the
unit and turn on power. Verify that the unit
is functioning normally.
