Emptying the dust container

Fig. 13

In order to achieve the best possible vacuuming results, the dust container should be emptied after every use or, at the latest, when dust at one point in the dust container has reached the marking.

We recommend that you not ﬁll the dust container beyond the marking, as this leads to considerable soiling of the ﬁlter.

When emptying the dust container, always check how dirty the outer ﬁlter unit is and, if necessary, clean it as detailed in the "Cleaning the ﬂuff ﬁlter" instructions. Fig. 20

Caution!

The ﬁlter can only be cleaned if the appliance is switched off. Never vacuum without the outer ﬁlter unit and its ﬁtted ﬁlter cartridge.

Filter care

Caution!

The ﬁlter can only be cleaned if the appliance is switched off.

Your appliance is equipped with a "Sensor Control" Function.

This function constantly monitors whether your vacuum cleaner is reaching its optimum power level. The indicator light lets you know when you need to clean the plate ﬁlter, so that the vacuum cleaner can reach its optimum power level once more.

Sensor Control

The indicator lights up blue when the appliance is working optimally. As soon as the indicator turns red and ﬂashes, the ﬂuff ﬁlter and ﬁn ﬁlter must be cleaned.

The appliance is automatically adjusted to power level 1.

To clean the ﬁn ﬁlter, turn the knob at least three turns through 180°.

You can also clean the ﬁlter if the suction is becoming less powerful, even if the indicator has not lit up. We recommend that you clean the plate ﬁlter each time before emptying the dust container. It must be cleaned at the latest when the “Sensor Control” indicator lights up.

Filter care

Tapping out the ﬁn ﬁlter (motor protection ﬁlter)

Fig. 22

If the plate ﬁlter is particularly dirty, the dirt can also be tapped out.

Tap out the ﬁlter over a dustbin. The dirt will fall down out of the ﬁlter.

If the ﬁn ﬁlter is defective, you can order a new one via our after-sales service using the following spare part number: 12015942.
