Removing and installing the sponge
filter
CAUTION:
After cleaning the sponge filter,
be sure to reinstall it on the cleaner. If washed in
water, dry it up before installing. An insufficiently dried
sponge filter may shorten the service life of the motor.
When the sponge filter is clogged with dust, remove it
from the cleaner and then wipe it off or wash in water.
To remove the sponge filter, remove the dust bag or
paper filter and then pinch and take the sponge filter
out.
