Shaking the primary filter (Fig. 7)

Depending on the vacuumed dust quantity and if the pointer
of the vacuum gauge switches from the green zone (2) to the
red zone (3) turn the vacuum cleaner off and shake the main
filter with the knob (1).
WARNING!
Stop the vacuum cleaner before shaking the filter.
Do not shake the filter while the vacuum cleaner is on,
as this could damage the filter itself.
Wait before restarting the vacuum cleaner, to allow the dust to
settle. Replace the filter element if the pointer still remains in
the red zone (3) even after the filter has been shaken (consult
the "Primary filter replacement" paragraph).

Emergency stopping

Turn the main switch to "0" position.

Emptying the container

WARNING!
Before proceeding with these operations, turn off the
vacuum cleaner and remove the plug from the power
socket.
Before emptying the container it is advisable to clean the filter
(see "Shaking the filter" paragraph).

automatically stops.
To start the vacuum cleaner again:
■ Disengage the container (1), remove it and drain the

solid residues which may prevent the liquid from draining
properly.
