Cleaning the Dust Tank and Filter:
• This unit is equipped with a removable

then empty the dust container and clean all of
the filters.
The vacuum will not pick up or the suction
power is weak.
The dust container may be full, or the filters
may require cleaning.
Empty the dust container and clean the filters.
Check to make sure the brush roller is clear of
fibres.
Dust is escaping from the vacuum. The filter may not be installed correctly, or the
dust container may be full.
Empty the dust container and reassemble the
filter system
