Emptying the Dust Cup
Empty the dust cup
regularly during
vacuuming, and always
after vacuuming to
maintain ecient
cleaning performance.
The maximum dirt level
is reached when the dirt
reaches the MAX mark
which is on the Dust Cup. You should empty the Dust before it reaches
this level. Failure to do this will impair the eciency of the cleaner.
Switch the cleaner o
and unplug it.
Press the dust cup re-
lease and then carefully
remove the dust cup
from the cleaner.
Invert the dust cup over a bin. Press the
catch on the lid which will pop open.
Shake and tap the dust cup lightly to
remove as much dust as possible.
Close the lid.
If you wish to continue vacuuming, replace
the cup.
If you have nished vacuuming refer to the
Cleaning instructions on the next page.
Cleaning the Main Filter and SMS Filter
The SMS lter stops nearly all dust particles and airborne allergens from
re-entering the air you breathe. This lter ts into the top of the main
lter. Clean the lters every time you use the cleaner. Failure to do this
will impair performance and may damage the cleaner motor.
The SMS lter will discolour over time. This is normal and provided the
lter is kept clean, performance will not be adversely aected.
Removing and replacing the lid of the dust cup.
Hold the dust cup rmly
and rotate the lid towards
the “UNLOCK” icon as
shown to open.
Remove the lid and keep
it safe.
To replace the lid, place it
on the dust cup and rotate
so that the tab on the lid is
over the the “LOCK” icon.
Removing the SMS Filter:
The lter is under
the lid.
There is a ap in
the top of the lter
to help you remove
the lter. Hold the
ap in your thumb
and forenger and
then lift the SMS
lter out.
There are hand
grips in the top of
the lter assembly
to help you remove
the lter easily.
Hold the lter assem-
bly with the hand
grips and then lift
the lter out.
