5.2 Aspiración de líquidos

Before wet vacuuming, remove the cartridge filter and install the foam filter. Ensure the dust bag is removed if one was used. Do not overfill the tank; the vacuum has a float mechanism that will shut off suction when the tank is full. To empty, unplug the unit and use the drain plug at the bottom of the tank.
