Cleaning the HEPA filter
CAUTION:
Do not use the vacuum cleaner
without a filter or continue to use dirty or dam-
aged filter. Vacuumed dust or particles may be
exhausted from the cleaner and they may cause
respiratory disease to the operator.
NOTICE:
To keep optimum suction power and
clean exhaust, clean the filter periodically. If
enough suction power is not obtained even after
the cleaning, replace the filter with new one.
NOTICE:
To prevent the filter from being dam-
aged, do not use following tools and similar items
for cleaning :
— Air duster
High pressure washer
—
— Tools made of hard materials such as a
metallic brush
1. Open the lid and take out the filter bag. Release
the hook on the filter and remove it from the vacuum
cleaner body.

2. Beat the dust off from the filter. The filter can be
washed with water. Rinse away the dust and particles
on the filter every 1 or 2 month. After that, dry the filter
completely in a shaded and well-ventilated place to
prevent unpleasant odor or malfunctions.
3. To install the filter, insert the side without the flap
into the holder then push the filter downward until the
flap is secured by the rib.
