The Filter System

Your appliance features 3 filters. The common dust bag
system has been replaced by a transparent dust collector.
The higher flow speed of the collector allows for heavy dirt
and smallest floating particles to be separated from the
"sucked-in air".
It is thus not necessary to buy dust bags.
The filters must be cleaned periodically.
CAUTION:
• Never wash the filter in the washing machine.
• Do not use a hairdryer for drying.
• Put the appliance back into operation when all filters
are completely dry and correctly assembled.
