4. CLEANING THE HEPA FILTER (14B)

The air we breathe contains particles that can be allergenic: larva and dust mite faeces, mould, pollen, smoke, and animal waste (hair, skin, saliva, urine). The finest of these particles penetrate deeply into the respiratory system, where they can cause inflammation and alter the respiratory function as a whole. (H)EPA ([High] Efficiency Air Particle Filter) filters retain even the smallest particles. Thanks to the (H)EPA filter, the air that is expelled back into the room is cleaner than the air vacuumed.

• Pull simultaneously on the opening clips (13d) of the HEPA filter case - Fig.19.

• Separate the black foam filter (14a) from the HEPA filter (14b) - Fig. 20.
