Maintenance and care Replacing the Post-motor HEPA Media Filter* The post-motor HEPA Media Filter* assists in the filtration process to return clean air to the room. Use only BISSELL replacement filters in your PowerGroom Multi Cyclonic. 1. Turn the power OFF. Unplug the vacuum from the electrical outlet. 3. 2. The post-motor filter is located behind the door labeled "FILTER" on the rear of the vacuum. Open the door by pushing down on the tab of the door and pulling out to remove. 3. Remove the post-motor HEPA Media Filter* by grasping the handle on the filter and pulling out to remove. 4. 4. Replace the post-motor HEPA Media Filter* with a new filter. NOTE: The post-motor filter is a white, pleated HEPA Media Filter*. This filter is NOT washable and must be replaced when it becomes dirty. 5. Replace the filter door by inserting the two tabs at the bottom of the filter door. Then push down on the tab on the door and push it back into the vacuum. Release the tab on the door to lock into place. *The filter media, not the vacuum as a whole, complies with the IEST-RP-CC001.5 or the EN-1822-1:2009 HEPA standard. Thermal protector An internal thermal protector has been designed into your vacuum to protect it from overheating. When the thermal protector activates, the vacuum motor will stop operating. If this happens: 1. Turn the cleaner OFF (O) and unplug from electrical outlet. 2. Empty dirt container, check filters and air passages for dirt accumulation. 3. The thermal protector automatically resets after approximately 2 hours. If the thermal protector does not reset, call BISSELL Consumer Services or visit the website. 12 w w w. b i s s e l l . c o m Post-Motor HEPA Media Filter* 800.237.7691
