the pre-filter screen (A) will stop
larger debris from entering the HEPA fil-
ter chamber. This larger debris will be
seen collecting in the larger chamber of
the dirt cup (B). The HEPA filter will col-
lect fine particles that have passed
through the pre-filter screen. The HEPA
filter cleans itself while rotating, deposit-
ing fine debris in the smaller chamber of
the dirt cup (C).
The cleaner will continue to perform at
maximum cleaning levels if the pre-filter
screen is cleaned each time the dirt cup
is emptied (see Fig. 34).
