Opretholdelse
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your Powr-Flite Rigel Pro vacuum cleaner. Always unplug the unit before performing any maintenance.
1. Replacing the HEPA Filter Bag
The HEPA filter bag should be replaced when it is full or when suction power noticeably decreases. The vacuum features a 3-stage filtration system, with the bag being the primary filter.
- Adgangsrum til taske: Locate the bag compartment door on the front of the vacuum. Open the latch and swing the door open.
- Fjern den gamle pose: Carefully slide the full HEPA bag out of its holder. Dispose of the bag according to local regulations.

2. Cleaning/Replacing Additional Filters
In addition to the HEPA bag, the vacuum has two other filters that contribute to its 3-stage filtration. Check these filters periodically and clean or replace them as needed.
- Formotorfilter: Typically located near the motor, this filter protects the motor from fine dust. Tap it clean or rinse if washable (check manual for specifics). Replace if heavily soiled or damaged.
- HEPA-udstødningsfilter: Located at the exhaust port, this filter captures microscopic particles before air is expelled. Inspect and replace this filter annually or more frequently with heavy use.
3. Inspecting and Cleaning the Metal Brush Roll
The metal brush roll is crucial for effective carpet cleaning. Inspect it regularly for tangled hair, threads, or debris.
- Adgangsbørsterulle: Lay the vacuum flat on its back. You may need to remove a bottom plate or cover to access the brush roll.
- Rengør børsterulle: Use scissors or a seam ripper to carefully cut and remove any tangled hair or fibers from the brush bristles. Ensure the brush roll spins freely.
- Saml igen: Reattach any covers or plates securely.
