There is a clamp at the
base of the lter cage.
Rotate this clamp to
the left to loosen it
and then remove the
clamp as shown.
Now separate the cyclone tube from the lter cage.
Wash the lter cage, the cyclone tube and the clamp under running
water Make sure any adhered particles are freed.
Tap the SMS lter on the edge of a bin to shake o any excess dust.
Brush out the SMS lter with a soft brush. If the lter is soiled, wash it
under running water until it is thoroughly clean.
Allow all parts of the lter to dry and then reassemble the lter and re
insert it into the Dust Cup. Now replace the Dust Cup in the cleaner.
NEVER replace a lter if it is damp.
Cleaning the Inlet and Motor Filter
Clean these two lters often. Failure to clean the lters regularly will
reduce the cleaner eciency and may shorten its lifespan.
The Inlet Filter is at the rear of the inside compartment behind the
Dust Cup. Remove the Dust Cup and pull the lter out.
Brush the inlet cavity well. This will help keep the internal airways clean
and maintain cleaner performance.
The Motor Filter is at the rear of the cleaner.
Remove the lter cage. Brush
out the cavity behind the
cage.
This will maintain the perfor-
mance of the cleaner.
Remove the motor lter from
the cage.
Wash both lters under running
water until the water runs clear.
Allow the lters to dry.
Re-insert the motor lter into
the lter cage. and replace both
lters into the cleaner.
NEVER replace a lter if it is
damp.
Cleaning and Storage
Switch the cleaner o and unplug from the mains.
Empty the dust and clean all lters. Wipe the cleaner body with a damp
cloth and dry thoroughly. Do NOT allow water or liquids to penetrate
the vacuum cleaner. This could be dangerous.
Make sure that the extension tube and the accessories are free from
dirt, debris and any obstructions.
Store the cleaner safely out of the reach of children and pets.
The cleaner can be stored with the hose and accessories disconnected
and separately stored. Alternatively, it may be stored in the normal po-
sition with the tube and oor brush parked on the rear hook (see P. 4).
