We recommend regular maintenance of the
ltration system, in order to ensure your
central vacuum’s maximum performance.
Your Cyclo Vac central vacuum is equipped
with two lters. An anti-clogging lter
(thin fabric) stops the larger particles,
and a Cyclo ltre (thick fabric) catches
the microscopic particles and is treated
with Ultra-Fresh* to prevent the growth of
mold, fungus and bacteria. Both lters are
washable in cold water (no bleach). Dry at
low temperature.
To remove the lters, rst remove the dust
receptacle (fi gure 19), then use the straps
at the base of the lters to withdraw them
(fi gure 20). We recommend that you clean
the anti-clogging lter (thin fabric) every
time you empty the dust receptacle. You
may either shake it out, or wash it. The
Cyclo ltre (thick fabric) should be cleaned
after four anticlogging lter cleanings, or
approximately once a year.
It is important that both lters be
completely dry before they are reinstalled.
They should be carefully installed in the
support grooves (fi gure 21) on the lter
frame to ensure adequate protection for
the motor. Install the Cyclo ltre (thick
fabric) rst, and the anticlogging lter (thin
fabric) over it.
Before replacing the lters, inspect them
for tears or punctures. Do not reinstall
damaged lters.
