2. Remove the filter pack from the recess by pressing the button. [18]
Gently tap and wash the filter packs using hand warm water [19]. Remove excess
water from the filter with a dry cloth and leave to dry fully before re-using. [20]
Reassemble filter packs once fully dry and refit to the cleaner.
REMEMBER: Do not use hot water or detergents. In the unlikely event of the
filters becoming damaged, fit a Genuine Hoover replacement. Do not try and
use the product without a dust bag or filter fitted.
Cleaning the Permanent Dust Bag* (certain models only)
To maintain optimum performance we recommend that you wash the permanent dust bag
after every 5 full bags. Empty the contents of the Bag into a bin, wash the Bag under hand
warm water, remove excess water with a dry cloth and leave to dry fully before replacing.
Removing a blockage from the system
If the bag check indicator is red:
1. Check if the bag is full. If so, refer to 'Replacing The Dust Bag'.
2. If it is not full, then;
A. Do the filters need cleaning? If so, refer to 'Cleaning the Filter'.
B. Check if there is any other blockage in the system - Use a rod or a pole to
remove any blockage from telescopic tube or flexible hose.
C. Check for and clear any blockage in the Nozzle.
WARNING: - The bag check indicator will turn red if the cleaner is used when full, if there is a
blockage or if the filters are dirty. If the cleaner is used for a significant period of time with the
bag check indicator red, a thermal cut out will switch the cleaner off to prevent overheating. The
bag check indicator turn green once the cleaner has switched off to signal that the thermal cut
out has been activated. If this should happen, switch the cleaner off, unplug and correct the
fault. It will take about 45 minutes for the cut out to automatically reset.
