MAINTENANCE

Regularly check the filters to prevent problems. Empty the dust reservoir when it is full and clean or replace the filters when they are dirty.

EMPTYING THE DUST RESERVOIR

It is recommended emptying the dust reservoir after each use. The dust reservoir is full when the amount of dirt has reached the max line.

• Press the knob to disconnect the dust reservoir and remove the dust reservoir from the vacuum cleaner - fig. 4.
• The entire dust reservoir comes away from the vacuum cleaner - fig. 5. Make sure you hold the dust reservoir upright to prevent the cyclone system from falling out.
• Remove the cyclone system [B] from the dust reservoir [A] and empty the dust reservoir - fig. 6.
• Place the cyclone system in the dust reservoir and snap it in place to the vacuum cleaner.

CLEANING THE CYCLONE SYSTEM AND FILTERS

First remove the accessories and empty the dust reservoir before cleaning the vacuum cleaner - fig. 4. Clean the filters and cyclone system after each 4th time that the dust reservoir is emptied.

• Press the knob to disconnect the dust reservoir and remove the dust reservoir from the vacuum cleaner - fig. 4.
• The entire dust reservoir comes away from the vacuum cleaner - fig. 5. Make sure you hold the dust reservoir upright to prevent the cyclone system from falling out.
• Remove the cyclone system [B] from the dust reservoir [A] and empty the dust reservoir - fig. 6.
• The cyclone system consists of several parts - fig. 7. In order to clean the cyclone system thoroughly, you can dismantle the cyclone system. Clean the parts with lukewarm running water. Do not use cleaning agents or brushes. Allow the parts to dry in the air. It is possible that the motor filter does not return to its original colour after cleaning. This discolouration does not have an effect on its function.
• Re-assemble all parts when everything is fully dry and place them back in the dust reservoir in reverse order. Caution: the cyclone system fits in the dust reservoir in only one way.
• Properly connect the dust reservoir to the vacuum cleaner and make sure it snaps in place.

Attention

• Only use the vacuum cleaner when the complete cyclone system has been placed. If not, the suction power could be reduced or the motor could be damaged.
• Torn or not properly sealing filters could damage the motor. When a filter is defective, it must be replaced by a new original filter.
