CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Warning:
Before any maintenance or cleaning always unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
• Empty the vacuum cleaner container and remove and clean the filter before storing the vacuum cleaner.
• You can wrap the power cord around the body of the vacuum cleaner, fit the floor nozzle with the attached
tube and hose in the holder on the side of the vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner should be stored in
a room protected from weather conditions.
• You can wipe the casing and the vacuum cleaner container if necessary with a damp cloth. The internal
parts of the vacuum cleaner should not be penetrated by water. Never use solvents or any other aggressive
cleaners or abrasives.
• Never immerse the vacuum cleaner into water or any other liquid and do not leave it under running water.
No parts of the vacuum cleaner can be washed in the dishwasher.
• Over time, hair or other dirt can be entangled on the vacuum cleaner wheels and the floor nozzle. Remove
them regularly to ensure easy handling of the vacuum cleaner. We do not recommend that you lubricate or
treat with oil the wheels and rollers of the floor nozzle. Dirt would catch on the greased parts even easier.
