Damage due to contamination in
the dust compartment
Large quantities of dust may enter
the dust compartment and damage
components if the dustbag has not
clicked into position.
Before closing the dust compartment
lid, make sure that the dustbag has
been inserted so that it has clicked
into position.
 Close the dust compartment lid se-
curely, making sure it clicks into posi-
tion. Take care not to trap the dust-
bag when doing so.
How the timestrip® filter change in-
dicator works
The timestrip® filter change indicator
shows the remaining functional life of
the exhaust filter. After approx. 50 oper-
ating hours the display will be com-
pletely filled with red (Fig. 11). 50 oper-
ating hours equates to approximately
one year of use.
