•   The dust bowls and filters can be washed 

in warm soapy water.  Allow to dry before 

placing back into the vac.

•   To replace the filters, slide the outer 

plastic filter over the cloth filter. 

•   Align the wings of the plastic filter with 

the slots in the cloth filter and twist in a 

clockwise direction. 

•   Place filters back into the bowl pressing 

firmly to ensure a secure fit.

•   To replace dust bowl, place it back onto the 

handle until it “clicks” firmly into position.

IMPORTANT: 

Maximum dust collection 

will only be obtained with a clean filter and 

an empty dust bowl. If dust begins to fall 

back out of the product after it is switched 

off, this indicates that the bowl is full and 

requires emptying.

•   Wash the filters regularly using warm, 

soapy water and ensure that they are 

completely dry before using again. The 

cleaner the filter is, the better the product 

will perform. 

•   It is very important that the filter is 

correctly in position before use.

Scented filter

BEFORE FIRST USE - remove bag from 

the scented pre-filter. Reassemble per 

instructions above.

When the vacuum is turned on, the plastic 

scented filter will emit an aroma to freshen 

the air. 

WARNING:

·  May cause mild skin irritation. Please 

ensure you wear gloves when 

handling the scented filter.

·  Toxic to aquatic life.

·  Harmful to aquatic life with long 

lasting effects.

·  Avoid release to the environment.

·  Dispose of content / container to an 

approved waste disposal plant.

 NOTE: When the plastic scented filter 

no longer lets off the aroma, it can be 

an indication that the filter needs to be 

replaced. See below for information on 

replacement filters.

Replacing the filters

The filters should be replaced every 6 to 9 

months and whenever worn or damaged. 

Replacement filters are available from your

The RBRC™ Seal

The RBRC® (Rechargeable 

Battery Recycling Corp oration) 

Seal on the lithium-ion batteries 

(or battery packs) indicates 

that the costs to recycle these batteries 

(or battery packs) at the end of their 

useful life have already been paid by 

BLACK+DECKER. In some areas, it is 

illegal to place spent lithium-ion batteries in 

the trash or municipal solid waste stream 

and the Call 2 Recycle® program provides 

an environmentally conscious alternative.

Call 2 Recycle, Inc., in cooperation with 

BLACK+DECKER and other battery users, 

has established the program in the United 

States and Canada to facilitate the collection 

of spent lithium-ion batteries. Help protect 

our environment and conserve natural 

resources by returning the spent nickel 

cadmium, nickel metal hydride or lithium-ion 

batteries to an authorized BLACK+DECKER 

service center or to your local retailer for 

recycling. You may also contact your local 

recycling center for information on where 

to drop off the spent battery. RBRC® is a
