Polarized Plug

A polarized plug has one rounded prong and one straight prong. The rounded end goes into the longest socket slot. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.

After Using the Vacuum

1. Slide the power switch to the OFF position.
2. Unplug the power cord.
3. Wrap the cord around the cord wrap area and store.

Note: The Ultimate Handheld Vacuum has a MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM: If fine materials such as soot, cement, plaster dust, copy machine powder, etc. are picked up, the bag surface may seal and cause the motor to shut off to avoid overheating. If this happens, turn the switch off and unplug the cleaner. If full, replace disposable inner bag. Check and clear any clogs in hose or accessories. After approximately thirty minutes the motor will have cooled and the cleaner will be ready to use.

IMPORTANT: The cleaner must remain unplugged for thirty minutes for motor to cool and system to reset.

Maintain

Replacing the Disposable Inner Bag

When the disposable inner bag is full you will need to replace the bag with a new one. Use only genuine Oreck filter bags.

For best results, change disposable inner bag regularly even if it is not completely full. An extremely dirty bag or a bag close to full will affect the suction of the cleaner and can create excessive motor heat that could damage the motor.

To replace the inner bag:

1. Push down on the inner bag door release button located above the hose inlet.
2. Rotate the inner bag door down.
3. Pull the inner bag out.
4. Insert a new inner bag by fitting the cardboard rim between the tabs inside the recessed bag holder.
5. Close the inner bag door.

Replacing the Micro Filter

The micro filter is extra protection against dust and dirt getting into the vacuum motor. To keep your vacuum running in top condition you will want to change the micro filter when it gets dirty.

To replace the micro filter:

1. Follow steps 1-3 on page 12, Replacing the Disposable Inner Bag.
2. To remove the Micro Filter, lift up on the recessed finger tab and pull out.
3. Remove the Micro Filter from the Micro Filter Frame.
4. Replace by pressing a new Micro Filter onto the tab located on the underside of the Micro Filter Frame.
5. Insert the Micro Filter Frame into the housing under the ribs located at the back of the housings, and locate the rear tab between the ribs.
6. Insert the inner bag back into place, and close the inner bag door.

IMPORTANT: Never remove the white gasket surrounding the inner bag opening. The vacuum will leak air and not run properly.

Replacing the HEPA Filter

The HEPA filter should be replaced every six months, or more often if the vacuum is used to pick up fine particles or in extremely dirty areas.

To replace the HEPA door:

1. Push down on tab of the HEPA filter door.
2. Pull the door out of its slot.
3. Slide the HEPA filter up and out of the door.
4. Insert a new filter by aligning the slots on the side of the filter with the tabs on the inside of the filter door.
5. Place the HEPA filter door assembly back into the slot and rotate the door up until it snaps into place.
