General questions about maintenance:

How do I clean the filters and how often?

Make sure the unit is unplugged.
Pre- Motor Filters
Remove the dust cup and pull the flat foam filter out from the motor housing. Then remove the felt filter using the small ribbon pull-tab. Rinse filters thoroughly in lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Squeeze out excess water and let air-dry completely for at least 24 hours before replacing. Do not place filters in the dishwasher or washing machine. To replace inside the vacuum once dry, put the felt filter in first, then add the foam filter.
Hepa Filter
Remove the filter cover from the front of the vacuum by pulling the latch from under the motor housing. Remove the HEPA filter cartridge, pull off the pre-HEPA filter and rinse them both under lukewarm water, dirty side down, until the water runs clear. Allow the filters to air-dry completely for 24 hours. Once the filters are dry, snap them back together and place them back into the vacuum, then replace the cover by lining up the tabs on one side and swinging the door securely closed until it clicks into place.

How do I empty the dust cup and how often?

To empty the dust cup, first remove it from the vacuum. Press the dust cup release button on the top of the canister and lift off the dust cup. Next, hold the dust cup over the trash and press the bottom door release button on the front of the unit. Tap gently to empty contents. Press the door shut until it clicks. If needed, press the top door release button and remove the fluff screen to clean. Tap gently to remove contents or wipe clean with a soft cloth. Remember to replace the fluff screen after emptying.
For optimal performance, empty the dust cup when dirt reaches the “max fill” line.

How do I maintain the brushroll?

With scissors, carefully cut away any hair wrapped around the brushroll. Check for any debris in the cleaner head and remove if needed.
