Press the Empty button and pull the dust cup open until it clicks and locks in the open position. Gently tap the cone-shaped screen inside the dust cup to knockdust and debris into the trash.
To reinstall, push the lid closed, then insert the front end of the dust cup into the handheld vacuum first, then the back end, until it clicks into place.

IMPORTANT: Unplug the vacuum before performing any maintenance.CLEANING FILTERSRegularly rinse and replace the filters to maintain your vacuum’s suction power.To prevent damage from cleaning chemicals, rinse filters with cold water only. Do not use soap. Allow all filters to air-dry for at least 24 hours before reinstalling them to prevent liquid from being drawn into electronic parts.

With the dust cup detached, press the Filter Access buttons on both sides of the back of the dust cap, then pull out the filter housing. Pull the foam filter out of the housing, then lift out the felt filter by the pull tab.The Pre-Motor Filters should be washed once a month.

CHECKING FOR BLOCKAGES

Remove the dust cup and check all intake openings for debris or blockages.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The vacuum is not picking up debris. No suction or light suction.See the Maintenance section for more information.

  • Clear any blockages in the handheld vacuum or accessories, empty the dust cup and remove any hair from the cone-shaped screen, and clean filters regularly to maintain strong suction.

The vacuum turns off on its own.If your vacuum overheats, the thermostat will automatically turn off the motor. Perform the following steps to restart:

  1. Turn the vacuum off and unplug it.
  2. Empty dust cup and clean filters. See Emptying the Dust Cup and Cleaning Filters sections.
  3. Check for blockages in a handheld vacuum, inlet openings, and accessories.
  4. Allow the unit to cool for a minimum of 60 minutes.
  5.  Plugin a vacuum and turn it on.

The handheld vacuum is warm.Due to the strong suction power of the vacuum, it is normal for the area around the filter exhaust to become warm during and after use. Turn off the vacuum and wait 10 minutes for it to cool down. If it still feels warm, clean the pre-motor and post-motor filters. See Maintenance section for filter cleaning instructions.
