DUST CANISTER
Emptying
To obtain the best results from
your cleaner empty the dust
canister regularly, otherwise the
airflow and cleaning power will
be reduced.
1 Every time the dust canister is
emptied, turn the yellow dial (a
minimum of 5 revolutions) prior
to pressing the dust canister
release button (this will agitate
the fine dust between the filter
pleats and restore the air flow)
2 Remove the dust canister from
the product by pressing the dust
canister release button ‹. Lift
up the lid and remove the
canister from the product,
pulling the dust canister away
from the product. C
3 Holding the dust canister over a
dustbin press the dust release
button as shown D, the bottom
of the dust container will drop
down to release the dirt.
4 Close the bottom of the dust
canister by pressing the base
upwards until it clicks into place.
5 Refit the dust canister back into
the product. Make certain the
dust canister feet are located in
place.
6 Close the lid securely.
ALLERGY
SUFFERERS
When emptying any vacuum
cleaner, it is difficult to avoid
exposure to dust. To minimise
this risk, please ensure that you
encase the dust canister in a
large bag to empty it. Close the
bag as tightly as possible round
the dust canister. Remove the
dust canister and close the bag
as tightly and quickly as
possible and dispose of this
immediately. It is advisable to
wear disposable gloves and a
face mask while emptying the
cleaner. If at all possible, ask a
non allergy sufferer to empty the
dust canister when required.

Exhaust filter
The exhaust filter  is located
at the rear of the cleaner. Press
the catch and pull the exhaust
grille ‰ away F. Pull the
bottom of the filter outwards so
the top of the filter unhooks
from the filter recess.
To maintain the high efficiency,
the exhaust filter should be
replaced every 6 months.
IMPORTANT: To re-fit the filters,
first hook the top of the filter
into the filter recess then push
the bottom of the filter into
location G.
Note: If the filter is not correctly
hooked in, the exhaust filter
grille will not close.
After fitting the filter, re-fit the
exhaust filter grille by hooking
the bottom of the grille in first
and then pushing the top close
until it clicks fully closed.
IMPORTANT: All filters should
be checked regularly for signs
of damage, preferably after each
cleaning task. The filters must
be replaced immediately if they
become damaged.
• Always disconnect the cleaner
from the mains when checking
filters.
• Always make sure all filters are
fitted before use. Failure to do
so may result in damage to your
product.
Storage position
When finished you can store the
tubes and accessories by
locating the tube storage clip
into the parking slot on the side
of the cleaner as shown H.
Safety cut-out
If the cleaner overheats a motor
protection thermostat will
automatically switch the motor
off. If this happens, switch the
cleaner off, unplug from the
power supply and leave the
cleaner to cool for at least 60
minutes. Check the airways for
blockages, empty dust canister
and clean the filters before
restarting.
Cleaning and
maintenance
Unplug from the mains before
cleaning. The vacuum cleaner,
especially the dust
compartment and all
accessories can be cleaned
using a damp cloth or a nonabrasive cleaner and wiped dry.
