9 Close the bottom cover of the dust container and lock it by pushing
it home behind the cover latch ('click').
10 Pull the latch of the HEPA dust container filter to open it.
The spring-loaded button on the dust container pushes the filter out
,
of the hinges.
11 Rinse the pleated side of the HEPA dust container filter under a hot
slow-running tap.
- Hold the filter in such a way that the pleated side points upwards and
the water flows parallel to the pleats. Hold the filter at an angle so that
the water washes away the dirt inside the pleats.
- Turn the filter 180° and let the water flow along the pleats in the
opposite direction.
- Continue this process until the filter is clean.
Never clean the HEPA filter with a brush.
Note: Cleaning does not restore the original colour of the filter, but does restore
its filtration power.
12 Remove the foam filter and rinse it under a tap.
13 Carefully shake the water from the surface of the HEPA dust
container filter. Let the HEPA dust container filter and the foam
filter dry completely before you put them back into the vacuum
cleaner.
14 Place the foam filter back in the dust container.
