• Do not leave the appliance in a place with direct sunlight.
• Do not leave the appliance in a wet place after cleaning it.
• After prolonged use of the suction base, hair or other particles may become entangled in the brush. To ensure optimum performance, clean it regularly.

Cleaning the filters and dust container. Fig. 6.

• To avoid the appliance from overheating and losing suction power, it is essential to clean the filters frequently. To make the most of the suction power, it is suggested to clean the filter after every use.
• The filters' shelf life will depend on the accumulated use and the type of dirt that is frequently vacuumed. It is recommended to replace the filters approximately every 6 months.
• Make sure the vacuum cleaner is switched off.
• Press the dust container release button and remove it.
• Remove the filter system from inside the container and separate the filters for cleaning.
• Put the filters back in their original position inside the dust container.
• Refit the dust container.
• Vacuum and shake the filters to remove every dirt that may block them and hinder correct air circulation. Remember not to use the vacuum cleaner without the filters properly assembled.

ENGLISH

• Filters cannot be washed inside a washing machine nor dried with a hair dryer.
• Do not brush the high-efficiency filter.

Cleaning the vacuum head

The main brush spins at top speed and helps pushing the dirt into the suction inlet. This brush is in contact with the floor and therefore with the dirt, so it can wear out over time, affecting the cleaning efficiency. It is recommended to clean the vacuum head once a week (depending on use).

1. Make sure the vacuum cleaner is switched off.
2. Slide the tab on the side of the vacuum head.

3. You can then remove the brush from inside the vacuum head and clean it.

4. To avoid any damage to the brush, tangled hair should be removed.

5. You can wash the brush with lukewarm water, do not use soap or detergents. However, it is recommended to shake it or vacuum it to avoid placing it back again wet in the brush head.
6. If you decide to wash the brush, make sure it is completely dry before installing it again on the vacuum cleaner.
7. When replacing the brush, make sure it is properly installed.
