About the cyclone attachment
Using the cleaner with the cyclone attachment installed
reduces the amount of dust that enters the capsule,
which helps to prevent the suction force from weaken-
ing. In addition, cleaning after use is also simple.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the appliance
is switched off before carrying out any work on
the appliance.
CAUTION:
Clean the mesh filter of the
cyclone attachment and the filters of the cleaner
unit when they become clogged. Continued use in
the clogged condition may result in heating or smoke.
NOTICE:
When the cyclone attachment is
attached, do not use the cleaner in a horizontal
or upward facing position. Doing so may cause the
mesh filter to become clogged.
NOTICE:
Always use the cleaner with the filters
installed, even when using the cyclone attach-
ment. Using the cleaner without the filters installed
may result in a motor malfunction.
NOTE: Check that the cyclone attachment, cleaner,
and extension wand are locked properly before use.
NOTE: Empty the dust case of the cyclone attach-
ment and the capsule of the cleaner when dust has
accumulated. Continued use will result in weakened
suction force.
NOTE: You can also use the cyclone attachment with-
out lock function.
NOTE: To install or remove the cyclone attachment,
refer to the section "Installing and removing cleaner
attachments".
Disposing of dust
When dust has accumulated up to the full line of the

3. Insert the dust case all the way until the two but-
tons lock with a click.

CAUTION:
Be careful not to trap finger(s)
between the dust case and cyclone body when
reassembling.
NOTE: If the suction force does not recover even
after disposing of the dust and cleaning the mesh
filter, check whether dust has accumulated in the
capsule of the cleaner or clogging has occurred.
NOTE: The dust may fly up when disposing from the
cyclone attachment. Be careful not to let dust get into
your eyes.
Cleaning
When the dust case becomes dirty or the mesh filter is
clogged, remove and wash them with water. (Refer to
"Disposing of dust" for the removal procedure.)
NOTICE:
After washing the dust case and filters,
dry them thoroughly before use. Insufficiently dried
components may cause electric shock and/or injury.
