Correct storage is an important part of your vacuum’s routine upkeep and maintenance. It helps keep the appliance clean and ready for its next use.
- Switch off and unplug the vacuum before cleaning or storing it.
- Empty the dust container: Remove collected dust and debris, and clean the container as instructed in your user manual.
- Clean the filters and brush roll: Remove trapped dust, hair and debris. Allow washable components to dry completely before refitting.
- Check the vacuum: Inspect the hose, attachments, plug and power cord for visible damage.
- Store the power cord safely: Use the designated cord hooks or storage system. Avoid tight bends, pulling or twisting the cord.
- Choose a suitable location: Store the vacuum upright in a cool, dry place away from excessive heat and moisture.
Always ensure all components are correctly fitted before using the vacuum again. Never store the appliance with damp filters or wet components.
