The handvac is compact however, provides XL dust cup capacity to guarantee an extended cleaning session when needed. The new PetExtract™ Hair Tool accessory uses rubber fins to pull in stubborn pet hair on sofas, carpets, and more. 

How do I use the accessories?

All accessories attach directly to the vacuum nozzle.

To remove an accessory, slide it straight off the nozzle.

To use your NEW PetExtract accessory tool, first slide the accessory onto the nozzle. 

When you are ready to begin using the tool, slide the power switch to the “I” position to power on. The best way to use this tool is to push and pull the unit in a rapid back and forth motion on the desired area of hair pick up. The felt and flaps help to pick up the pet hair while simultaneously self-cleaning the brush roll to suck it all into the dust cup! 

You can use this on many surfaces throughout your home: you couch, bed, carpet and much more! 

How do I remove the dust cup and why would I want to do so?

The dust cup should be removed to empty debris that was picked up, clear clogs in the inlet, to rinse out the dust cup to clean it, or to remove and rinse the filter (with water only.)

  • First, slide the switch into the "O" position to power off.
  • Press the dust cup release button on the back of the hand vac and pull off the dust cup.
  • Remove the filter from the dust cup by pulling the tab and then empty the debris into the trash.
  • Rinse the filter with water only, and allow it to air-dry completely for up to 24 hours.
  • Rinse out the dust cup with water only, and allow it to air-dry completely for up to 24 hours.
  • After the filter is completely dry, reinsert it back into the dust cup and reinstall the dust cup.

Cleaning and Maintenance

How often should I empty the dust cup?

For optimal performance, the dust cup should be emptied each time you vacuum or when it appears full.

How do I know when the filters need to be cleaned?

Filters may need to be cleaned if the vacuum is not picking up dirt, if airflow is restricted, or if you notice lighter or no suction. To maintain optimal performance, periodically tap the filter clean. Every 3 months, rinse the filter with water only. Allow it air-dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinstalling.
