Vacuum Cleaner Use

8
Changing the HEPA filter bag
If the vacuum’s suction is reduced, this may be because the HEPA filter
bag needs changing. Raise the floor brush off the floor, set the suction
force regulation to MAX, switch on vacuum cleaner using the on/off
button, and keep an eye on the bag change indicator. If it is red, the
HEPA filter bag should be changed.
1. Turn off and unplug cleaner.
2. Remove the hose, open the
HEPA filter bag cover by
pushing latch up with fingers
and lifting cover.
3. Grasp the cardboard at the top
of the HEPA filter bag and
carefully remove the bag from
the vacuum cleaner.
4. Dispose of the HEPA filter bag.
5. Insert a new HEPA filter bag in
the vacuum cleaner. The vacuum
cleaner must never be used
without the HEPA bag.
6. Close the vacuum cleaner.
7. Always replace the HEPA filter bag after
sweeping up large quantities of fine
material.
Cleaning the motor filter
1. The motor filter can be found in
the dust bag container. It
protects the motor from dust
and should be cleaned
periodically or when it is dirty,
or if suction force is reduced.
2. Pull the filter holder up out of the
vacuum cleaner.
3. Open the filter holder, and remove the filter. Rinse the filter in
warm water, and allow it to dry completely. Do not use a hair
dryer or similar to dry the filter.

4. Return the filter to the holder and replace the filter holder in the
vacuum cleaner.
IMPORTANT! Never use the vacuum cleaner without a motor filter.
Cleaning the exhaust air filter
The exhaust air filter cleans the air a final time before it leaves the
vacuum cleaner. You can clean the exhaust air filter as follows:
1. Switch off the vacuum cleaner and disconnect the plug from the
outlet. To do this, always pull on the plug and not on the cord.
2. Open the exhaust air grill (this is at the rear and top of vacuum
cleaner).
3. The exhaust air filter is visible when the grill has been opened.
4. Rinse the filter under cold running water and allow dry.
5. Put the exhaust air filter back into place (or replace with a new
one) and place in the grill.
6. Close the exhaust air filter grill.

10
1. You can lift and carry the vacuum cleaner using the carrying
handle. Never pull or lift the vacuum cleaner by the cord.
2. Before putting the vacuum away turn vacuum off, unplug, and
press the cord rewind button until the cord is fully rewound.
3. To save space, the vacuum can be stored upright on its end
cover. The telescopic wand can be hung on the vacuum cleaner
by inserting the parking fixture into the vertical parking holder.
Clean the vacuum cleaner by wiping it with a damp cloth. You must not
use any solvents or abrasive cleaning agents.
Once any electronic product is no longer functional, it
should be disposed of in such a way as to cause minimum
environmental impact, in accordance with the regulations
of your local authority. In most cases you can take such
products to your local recycling station.
