• The dust bowls and filters can be washed
in warm soapy water. Allow to dry before
placing back into the vac.
• To replace the filters, slide the outer
plastic filter over the cloth filter.
• Align the wings of the plastic filter with
the slots in the cloth filter and twist in a
clockwise direction.
• Place filters back into the bowl pressing
firmly to ensure a secure fit.
• To replace dust bowl, place it back onto the
handle until it “clicks” firmly into position.
IMPORTANT: Maximum dust collection
will only be obtained with a clean filter and
an empty dust bowl. If dust begins to fall
back out of the product after it is switched
off, this indicates that the bowl is full and
requires emptying.
• Wash the filters regularly using warm, soapy
water and ensure that they are completely
dry before using again. The cleaner the filter
is, the better the product will perform.
• It is very important that the filter is
correctly in position before use.
Replacing the lters
The lters should be replaced every 6 to 9
months and whenever worn or damaged.
Replacement lters are available from your
BLACK+DECKER dealer.
