CLEANING THE DUST CONTAINER AND THE FILTERS

The filters guarantee you fresh air when vacuum cleaning. Filters that are maintained properly will allow your appliance to keep its maximum suction power. The dirtier the filters, the weaker the suction power will be. It is necessary to clean the filters regularly to avoid operation problems. The vacuum cleaner has a quadruple filtration system, which allows a filtration rate of more than 99% . The filtration system consists of the following elements:

A centrifugal filtration generated by the movement of the air in the dust container. Therefore it is necessary to empty the dust container regularly.
- A nylon filter (16) that filters the bigger dust particles
- An accordion filter (17) that filters the smaller dust particles
A supplementary air filter that filters the dust particles coming from the motor.

Each filter should be checked, cleaned or replaced respecting the following instructions:

1. Take the dust container out of the appliance by pressing the upper release button (13).
2. Open the bottom of the container by pressing the lower release button (15) and empty the container.

1. Separate the cover from the dust container by pressing the release button (14), remove the nylon filter (16) and the filter assembly (17) by turning and pulling at them.
2. You can clean the dust container and the filter under lukewarm running water.

1. Dry all the parts thoroughly and reassemble them.
2. From time to time also clean the air filter situated in the back of the appliance. To do so, open the grid and remove the filter, clean it and reinsert it with the grid. Only reassemble the filter when it is fully dry.
