of the cable!

• Do not allow the machine to remain stationary when
switched on!

Filter
Your machine has three fi lter systems.
1. Transparent dust collection container
The traditional dust bag system has been replaced by
a transparent dust collection container in which coarse
dirt particles and tiny particles floating in the air are
swirled out of the suction air by the high speed of the
air current.
The quantity of dust can be easily read off at any time
on the container, which is also very easy to empty.
The purchase of dust bags is no longer necessary.
2. Main Filter, Pre-fi lter (in the Dust Container)
WARNING:
Before removing and cleaning the fi lters switch the
device off and remove the plug from the socket.
Once the dust level has reached the MAX mark of the
dust container, please proceed as follows:
1. Press the button (3).
2. Remove the dust container.
3. Empty the contents of the dust container into a
suitable receptacle by pressing button on the dust
container (See illustration a).

Every third time that the fi lters are emptied, or
in the case of severe soiling, clean the fi lters

pletely dry!
