dander, etc.).

3. Grasp the left and right frames of the permanent HEPA-type filter through the indentations on

4. To clean the permanent HEPA-type filter, use the brush or crevice attachment with a vacuum
cleaner. Run the attachment along the inlet and outlet side of the filter, cleaning between the
crevices as much as possible. Do not use water or any household cleaners or detergents to
clean the permanent HEPA-type filter.

maintenance is done.
