Bottom Rim
IMPORTANT, Please Note : The
"TapClean" HEPA Dust Cup Filter will stop
most of the tiniest dust particles from re-
entering the air you breathe. In fact it
stops 99.97% of all particles as small as
0.3 microns - many times smaller than a
human hair!!! Because of this incredible
filtration performance, the HEPA Dust Cup
Filter will quickly accumulate, inside the
white filter folds, many fine dust particles
that are difficult to see but which will
eventually block or reduce your suction
power - if not cleaned properly. Clean the
HEPA Filter as described in this section,
then reconnect unit and proceed with
vacuuming.)
6. Vigorously "TapClean"
the HEPA Dust Cup
Filter on a hard
surface until no more
dust is observed
falling out from
between the pleats of
the filter. Please note
that there is a filter
brush included in the
tool tray that you can
use to clean the pleats
of the HEPA filter. See
illustrations at right.
