It is important to regularly maintain and clean the filters.
A clogged filter reduces suction power and can shorten the life of
your stick vac.
Below is a recommended guide for how often you should clean
the filters:
Filter Type Recommended cleaning times
Filter assembly
• Shake out debris when you empty the dust canister.
• Rinse under warm water once a month or more often if
required.
Circular
sponge filter
• Shake out debris when you empty the dust canister.
• Occasionally remove any dust/debris as necessary. It
can also be rinsed under warm water once a month.
Clearing a blockage
Ensure the stick vac is not plugged into the mains supply and is
switched off before dismantling the vac.
The stick vac would only become blocked if the dust canister has
exceeded the ‘MAX’ level, the filters are clogged up or a large object
has been sucked up.
1. Check the dust canister and empty if necessary.
2. Check the 2 filters in the unit, remove any debris/dust and wash
if necessary.
3. If the floor head, crevice/brush multi-tool or extension pole were in
use, detach them from the main body and each other and check for
blockages. Remove any blockages.
