Emptying the dust container (B)
The transparent container means it is easy to see when it needs to be emptied; in any case, the dirt
must not exceed the "MAX" level marked on the container.
- Press the release button and at the same time, remove the dust container (B) using the relevant
handle (D) (FIG. 6).
- Empty the dust from the container (B) by opening the lid by pressing down on the release button
(FIG. 7).
CAUTION: Only wash the filter using clean water; never use soap or detergent.
- To clean the container (B) thoroughly, it needs to be taken out and disassembled, as follows:
- remove the lid by turning it anticlockwise (FIG. 8);
- pull the motor protection filter upwards to remove it and then take out the permanent filter (FIG. 9).
IMPORTANT: Only wash filters with clean water. Never use soap or detergents.
This operation needs to be carried out every 6 months or whenever the vacuum cleaner suction
power is visibly reduced.
- The container needs to be reassembled before it can be used again (B).
- insert the motor protection filter inside the permanent filter and place inside the container (B) so that
the marks on the permanent filter and on the container itself are in line with one another (FIG. 10);
- refit the lid on the container (B), moving the white triangle mark on the lid into line with the transpa-
rent one on the container and then turning the lid clockwise until it locks into place (FIG. 11).
- Refit the reassembled dust container (B) onto the appliance, pressing down until it clicks into place
(FIG. 12).
Cleaning the HEPA exhaust filter
This filter cleans the air a final time before it leaves the vacuum cleaner. The motor filter and its special
covering need to be cleaned on a regular basis.
- Use the lever to remove the small hatch on the back of the appliance (FIG. 13).
- Remove the filter and clean it under running water (FIG. 14). Leave it to dry thoroughly.
- Refit the filter and click the hatch shut.
WARNING: Only wash the filter in clean water, without using soap or detergents.
WARNING: This operation is necessary at least once every 6 months or in any case, when suction
power is notably reduced.
Cleaning the vacuum cleaner
The casing, dust container and filter seats can be wiped with a damp cloth if necessary. No liquid must
enter the vacuum cleaner in the process. Never use heavy-duty cleaning substances (stain removers,
thinners) because they can corrode the plastic surfaces. Only put the plug back into the mains socket
when you are sure that all parts are thoroughly dry.
IMPORTANT: Do not lubricate or oil any rotating parts, since this could cause dirt and fluff to stick
even further.
