Press the release button on the dustbin, remove it and empty the contents into a trash can. Close and snap it back into place.

How often should I clean the HEPA filter?

It is recommended to clean the HEPA filter every 3 to 4 months, or when it is visibly dirty. Wash it with cold water and let it dry for 24 hours before reinstalling.

My vacuum cleaner no longer sucks, what should I do?

First check that the dustbin is not full, then clean the filter. Check for possible blockages in the tube or brush. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

Can I vacuum liquids with the BS 1272?
