MAINTENANCE
It is recommended to empty the dust container and clean the vacuum cleaner filters after each use of the vacuum
cleaner.
Emptying the dust container
1. Disconnect the charger from the mains.
2. Hold the vacuum cleaner down with a dust container.
3. Press the latch to release the dust container.
4. Remove the water separator and empty the vacuum cleaner dust container.
5. Reverse the procedure to attach the water separator and the filter and put the dust container back.
Cleaning and replacing the permanent filter
The vacuum cleaner filter can be cleaned by mechanical tapping and cleaning with a soft brush. A much soiled filter can
be washed after this step and cleaned with a soft brush in lukewarm water without detergents.
It is important to let the wet parts dry thoroughly. A wet filter would be depleted by vacuuming! Do not use
a hair dryer for drying!
Note: Wet cleaning can cause more wear on the filter and thereby shortening its life.
•
The filter should be cleaned or replaced with visible soiling or when the suction power of the vacuum cleaner
drops. Check it after each use of the vacuum cleaner.
•
To avoid damaging the vacuum cleaner, do not use it without a properly fitted filter and water separator.
•
You can purchase a suitable filter type from your dealer or order from the manufacturer.
