8 Care and maintenance

8.1 Cleaning the fluted filter (thorough
cleaning)
NOTE
Do not attempt to clean the fluted filter by
knocking it against a hard object and do not
use pointed instruments. This will reduce the
life of the fluted filter.
NOTE
Do not use compressed air to clean the fluted
filter. This may cause tears in the filter material.
NOTE
The fluted filter is a wearing part. It should be
replaced at least every 6 months and more
frequently if the appliance is subject to heavy
use.
The appliance is equipped with a filter clean-
ing system which removes most of the dust
adhering to the fluted filter.
1. Plug the supply cord into the power outlet.
2. Check to ensure that the filter cleaning
system is activated (slider in the lower po-
sition).

CAUTION
To avoid pinching the fingers, do not grip
the frame at the accessory holder.
1. Check to ensure that the vacuum cleaner
is standing securely and engage the castor
brakes.
2. Disconnect the suction hose from the hose
socket.
3. Remove the accessories from the access-
ory holder.
4. CAUTION Do not grip the frame at points
where it can knock against the waste
material container.
Hold the waste material container by the
emptying grip and tip the container over
until empty.
5. Clean the edge of the container, the hose
socket and the hose connector with a cloth.
7.7.2.2 Draining liquids
Drain off dirty water through the drainage hose
at a suitable place.
3. Press the on / off switch.
4. Cover the end of the hose or the suction
nozzle with the palm of the hand for approx.
5-10 seconds.
5. The fluted filter will then be cleaned auto-
matically by a blast of air (a pulsating noise
is heard).
NOTE The fluted filter may also be cleaned
with water and a cloth (do not use a high-
pressure cleaning system).
The filter may become clogged with mineral
dust if cleaning is neglected, resulting in
a drop in suction performance. This will
reduce the life of the fluted filter.
