5. Filter cleaning
CAUTION
If the tank is fi lled with dusts, the suction power
declines. Dump dusts as early as possible
when they reach the half of the tank height.
When the suction power declines during use,
remove dusts in the following procedure:
NOTE
Since the fi lter cleaning device operates when
the suction power declines to some extent, it
also operates in the following cases:
○ When the suction mouth at the tip of the hose is
closed.
○ When the hose is clogged with foreign matter.
To clean the fi lter using a strong air fl ow:
(1) Pull out the zoom pipe on the tip of the hose.
(2) Block off the tip of the hose with your hand and
turn the power switch ON. Next, press the dust
button on the top of the head for approximately
one second and release the button. Repeat
three times and the suction power should
recover. (Fig. 19)
If the suction power is not recovered, the tank
is almost fi lled with dusts. Dump dusts in the
tank.

CAUTION
○ Do not impact the tank, the fi lter, or the head.

of dusts and liquids, dump dusts and liquids
in the tank at least once a day and keep the
appliance, the fi lter, etc. clean. Otherwise
suction power fall, motor failure, bad smell or
rusting may be caused.
