MAINTAINING THE CYCLE-TECH
UNIT
Empting the container
The container must be emptied after
each use. To do this, press the container
release button and remove the container
(Fig.7).
To open the container, remove the lid
by pressing it upward (Fig 8) and empty
the contents directly into the rubbish bin
(Fig 9).
To close it again, put the lid back on
and fit the container back into its com-
partment. Check that the container sits
correctly in its compartment.
Cleaning the filters
It is advisable to clean the permanent
HEPA filter at least every six uses and to
replace the air outlet filter each year.
The filters must always be cleaned
whenever any type of blockage with the
suction occurs.
Cleaning the permanent HEPA filter:
-Take the lid off the container as des-
cribed in the previous paragraph and
turn the filter anticlockwise to remove it.
(Fig. 10)
The filter guard (18) can also be removed
in order to clean it.
Both the filter and the guard can be hand
washed in a mild detergent.
Once the filter and the guard are clean
and dry, they must be put back into their
original positions. To do this, place the
filter guard into its housing on top of the
cover and then insert the HEPA filter, by
rotating it clockwise so that it locks into
position, figure 11.
Place the cover with the filters onto the
Cycle-Tech unit and then fit the assembly
onto the vacuum cleaner.
IMPORTANT: Leave it to dry for 24 hours
before refitting it.

can find these replacements at your local
shopping centre.
IMPORTANT: The vacuum cleaner must
never be switched on unless this filter is
fitted correctly.

This basically consists in using non-con-

handed over to the local waste disposal
service as secondary raw materials. Your
local town council can provide you with
information on how to dispose of obso-
lete appliances.
