How to Change the Filter on a Roomba 4000
The Roomba 400 model, manufacturer product item number 4000, is a convenient battery operated robot vacuum that cleans on its own. It cleans up to "two rooms on a single battery charge," states Roomba.com. The unit is small, so frequent emptying of the dirt bin is necessary. The Roomba also uses a filter which the manufacturer suggests replacing every two months. Changing the filter on the Roomba 4000 is as simple as emptying the dirt bin on the unit. The filter is in a housing frame on the inside of the dirt bin. Does this Spark an idea?
