Important: If the suction opening in the unit or the hose becomes blocked, switch off
the unit and remove the blocking substance before you start the unit again.
Precautionary Measures
1. Do not place the unit too close to
heaters.
2. Before inserting the power plug into
the wall outlet, make sure that your
hands are dry.
3. Do not vacuum any liquids.
4. When pulling out the power plug
from the wall outlet. Pull the plug
not the power cord.
5. Do not dispose of or pick up
anything that is burning or smoking
such as cigarettes, matches or hot
ashes.
6. Do not use without garbage bag,
filters, and vacuum dust bag in
place.

3. Take out the HEPA-Type filter.
4. Vigorously “TapClean” the HEPA-
Type filter on a hard surface to
remove any residual dust that
might still be on the HEPA-Type
filter.
5. You can wash the HEPA-Type filter
by running it under the tap allowing
the water to run on the dirty side at
least once a month or when suction
is decreased.
Important Note: We recommend
washing it once a month or when
suction is reduced. Always allow 24
hours for drying before replacing into
the vacuum. DO NOT USE A
WASHING MACHINE TO WASH THE
FILTER. DO NOT USE A HAIR
DRYER OR CLOTHES DRYER TO
DRY THE FILTER.
The HEPA-Type filter should however
be replaced every three (3) to six (6)
months to ensure peak performance of
your vacuum.
Warning: Always clean the HEPA-
Type filter before each use and during
prolonged usage or risk motor damage.

HOW TO CHANGE AND CLEAN
THE HEPA-TYPE FILTER
Note: The HEPA-Type filter is located
at the back of the unit. (Fig. 17)
Important Note: This is a HEPA-
Type filter, and will stop most of the
tiniest dust particles from re-entering
the air you breathe. Because of this
filtration performance, the filter will
quickly accumulate many fine dust
particles inside the white filter folds that
are difficult to see but which will
eventually block or reduce your suction
power if not cleaned properly. Clean
the filter after each use as described in
this section.
The HEPA-Type filter should be
cleaned after every use. To change
and clean the HEPA-Type filter,
perform the following:
1. Unplug unit.
2. Remove the HEPA-Type filter
cover. (Fig. 17)
