pure Clean (D)
We recommend always using Hotpoint-
Ariston's original pure Clean dust bags,
because their special fabric allows optimum
air filtration, maximum dust/powder retention,
high performances and a long motor life.
As the Pure Clean dust bags (19) are made of fabric,
they are more resistant than conventional paper bags
and can retain very fine dust/powder particles more
effectively, thus ensuring maximum hygiene.
We recommend replacing the pure Clean
bag when the full-bag red indicator lights
up. In any case change it at least once a year to be
always sure of the best efficiency of your
appliance. The pores of a bag clogged with dust/
powder particles reduce the motor's suction
power and can even damage it.
1. Make sure the appliance is disconnected from
the electrical outlet.
2. Press the dust-compartment opening button (8)
to open the dust compartment lid (6).
3. Remove the Pure Clean dust bag by lightly
pressing the dust bag support (21).
Dispose of the dust bag in compliance with
all local regulations on waste disposal.
4. Fit a new Pure Clean dust bag to the intake
valve (20), making sure it locks into the dust bag
support.
5. Close the dust compartment lid (6) until it clicks
into place.
Make sure the dust bag is properly coupled
to the relevant support to prevent it from
coming loose during use.
Cleaning the Pure Clean Hepa 13
filter (E)
The Pure Clean Hepa 13 filter ensures maximum
protection against allergens and high air quality,
because the air given back by the appliance is entirely
free from dust/powder residues (filtering power >
99.95 %).
We recommend cleaning the filter at least
every 4 months to restore its filtering power.
In any case we recommend replacing the filter at
least every year to ensure maximum performance.
To clean the Pure Clean Hepa 13 filter:
1. Make sure the appliance is disconnected from
the electrical outlet.
2. Press the dust-compartment opening button (8)
to open the dust compartment lid (6).
3. Remove the Pure Clean Hepa 13 filter (17) by
