Safety: Remove the battery before working on the dust container.

  • Clean latch: Inspect the latch area for dust or debris. Clean with a brush and dry cloth.
  • Check hook and catch: Examine the plastic hook on the door and the catch on the body. If either is cracked or worn, the bin will not stay closed.
