Washing the filters
• Your machine has two washable filters; wash the filters at least once a month

• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before removing the filter. Be
careful not to pull the "ON" trigger.
• Check and wash the filter regularly according to instructions to
maintain performance.
• The filter may require more frequent washing if vacuuming fine dust or if used
mainly in "POWERFUL SUCTION" mode.
• To remove the filter, lift it out of the top of the machine.
• Wash the filter with cold water only.
• Run water over the outside of the filter until the water runs clear.
• Squeeze and twist with both hands to make sure the excess water is removed.
• Lay the filter on its side to dry. Leave to dry completely for a minimum of 24 hours.
• Do not put the filter in a dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven,
microwave or near an open flame.
• To refit, place the dry filter back into the top of the machine. Make sure it is seated
properly.
Washing filter B
• To remove the filter, twist counter-clockwise to the open position and pull away from
the machine.
• Wash the inside of the filter under cold running water, rotating the filter to ensure all
pleats are covered.

into place.
Looking for blockages
The motor will pulse when there is a blockage. Please follow the instructions below
to locate the blockage:
• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before looking for blockages.
Be careful not to pull the "ON" trigger.
• Do not operate while checking for blockages as doing so could result in
personal injury.
• Beware of sharp objects when checking for blockages.
• To check for blockages in the main body of the machine, remove the clear bin and
cyclone as per the instructions in the cleaning the clear bin section and remove the
blockage. Please consult the 'Stubborn blockages' section of the illustrations for
further guidance.
• If you cannot clear an obstruction you may need to remove the brush bar. Use a
coin to unlock the fastener marked with a padlock. Remove the obstruction. Replace
the brush bar and secure it by tightening the fastener. Ensure it is fixed firmly before
operating the machine.
• This machine has carbon fiber brushes. Take care if coming into contact with
them, as they may cause minor skin irritation. Wash your hands after handling
the brushes.
• Refit all parts securely before using.
• Clearing blockages is not covered by your warranty.
Blockages – automatic cut-out
• This machine is fitted with an automatic cut-out.
• If any part becomes blocked the machine may automatically cut out.
• This will happen after the motor pulses a number of times (i.e switches on and off in
quick succession).
• Leave to cool down before looking for blockages.
• Ensure the machine is disconnected from the charger before looking for blockages.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury.

Charging and storage
• This machine will switch "OFF" if the battery temperature is below 37.4°F (3°C).
This is designed to protect the motor and battery. Do not charge the machine and
then move it to an area with a temperature below 37.4°F (3°C) for storage purposes.
