Cleaning The Filter
For optimal performance, empty the Botvac dirt bin and clean the filter after every use.
- Take out the dirt bin.
- Remove the filter.
- Empty the contents of the dirt bin into a garbage can. Tap the filter against the garbage can to get rid of any excess dirt.
- Replace the filter and make sure it is tight. Insert the dirt bin back into the Botvac and make sure it is fully engaged.
Change the filter in your Botvac every one to two months. Factors that determine how often to change the filter include: frequency of vacuuming, size of the area it is cleaning, and the amount of dirt, debris and pet hair it picks up.
