Cleaning and replacing filters
Motor Protection Filter
Every time you empty or replace the dustbag,
clean the Permanent Motor Protection Filter.
1 Remove the dustbag holder with the dustbag.
2 Take the Motor Protection Filter holder out
of the appliance and clean the filter by shaking
it over a dustbin.(fig.25)
3 Press the filter holder with the clean filter
firmly into place to ensure that it fits properly
at the bottom.(fig.26)
4 Place the dustbag holder with the dustbag
back into the appliance.
Activated Carbon Filter
Instead of with the Motor Protection Filter, the
appliance can be used with an Activated Carbon
Filter.This filter neutralises smells produced by the
dirt in the dustbag.
Replace the Activated Carbon Filter every six
months or when you notice that smell
absorption becomes less effective.
1 To replace the Activated Carbon Filter, see
the Motor Protection Filter section above.
Instead of cleaning the filter, you have to
insert a new filter.
Motor Outlet Filter
The AFS Micro Filter located in the back of this
appliance will filter a large part of the smallest
particles from the exhaust air by means of its
electrostatically charged fibres.
1 Replace the AFS Micro Filter every six
months.
2 Open the filter grille.(fig.27)
3 Remove the old filter.(fig.28)
4 Insert the new filter into the appliance.
5 Close the filter grille and push the left and
right bottom corners until they snap
home.(fig.29)
HEPA filter
Instead of the AFS Micro Filter, some appliances
are equipped with the special HEPA Filter.The
HEPA Filter is able to remove at least 99.99% of
all particles down to 0.0003 mm in size from the
outlet air.This not only includes normal house
dust, but also harmful microscopic vermin such as
house dust mites and their excrements, which are
well-known causes of respiratory allergies.
The HEPA filter can be replaced in the same
way as the AFS Micro Filter. Replace the HEPA
filter every six months.
