Washing the HEPA 13 filter
To wash the HEPA 13 filter, follow the instructions below.
1 Rinse the HEPA 13 filter under a hot slow-running tap.
Never clean the filter with a brush.
2 Carefully shake the water from the surface of the filter. Let the filter
dry completely for at least 2 hours before you put it back into the
vacuum cleaner.
Note: Cleaning does not restore the original colour of the filter, but does restore
its filtration power.
