Cyclone unit and filters
NOTICE:
Dust off and clean out inside the
cyclone unit and filters, when suction perfor-
mance becomes less effective regardless of the
amount of dust collected in the dust case.
NOTICE:
After washing filters, dry them thor-
oughly before use. Insufficiently dried filters may
cause poor suction and shorten the service life of the
motor.
NOTICE:
After cleaning filters and sponge sheet,
be sure to re-install them before use. If you use the
cleaner without filters and sponge sheet, dust comes
into the motor housing and causes malfunction.
