REPAIR INSTRUCTION
- The spare parts have been standardized as much as possible.
- Cotton dust bags are used in countries where paper dust
bags are not available.
- Depending on the original cord, the spare cord must be
shortened to the length of the original cord.
- The cord winder spring must be tensioned to the maximum
level and then be rewound approx. 1.5 turn.
- Item 3, safety valve, opens to cool the motor if the air
displacement is too low or when the airflow is blocked.
- When the vacuum cleaner is used to clean fine dust the
pores of the dust bag may become clogged, causing the
passage of air through the dust bag to become obstructed.
As a result the dust bag-full indicator will indicate the dust
bag needs to be replaced, even though the dust bag is not
full at all.
In this case, replace the dust bag anyhow.
- Unscrew screws C of the Handle Bottom (Two Torx head
screws T15).
- Remove the Buttons and Handle Bottom, mind the Roller
Bottom attached to the PCB.
- Remove the Handle inlay by unhooking the back side of the
inlay, and then simultaneously opening the Dust Cover and
pulling the Handle Inlay up- and backwards (see picture).

- Remove the Dust Cover by unhooking the hinges.
- Unscrew screws D and remove the left and right Back
Bumper. Unscrew and unclick the Back Panel.
- Unscrew the 9 screws E from the Dust Chamber Motor
Pod.
- You can now access all internal components.
- When the repair is finished, check whether all functions of
the appliance work properly.
- To disassemble the cord winder, use TORX screwdriver
no. T10, which is one of a set consisting of T20; T15; T10;
T9; T8; T7 and T6 (code number 4822 395 50145).
- Reassembly in reverse order of disassembly, make sure you
route all electrical cables correctly.
