Emptying The Dirt Container; Cleaning Hepa Pre-Motor Filter - Vax Impact 502 Let's Get Started

Taking care of your machine
IMPORTANT: The motor is equipped with a thermal cut-out. If for any reason the machine should overheat, the
thermostat will automatically turn the machine off. Switch off and unplug the vacuum cleaner. Check the machine
for blockages and clean the filters. Wash the pre-motor filters with warm water (40°C max) and leave for 24
hours or until fully dry before replacing into the machine.
Filters require cleaning at least every 3-6 months (depending on the level of use).
Don't use your vacuum cleaner without all the filters in place.
