Replacing and cleaning filters
Replacing the outflow filter
Push down the clip on the filter grill to remove it by tilting it out. Remove the filter and reinsert a new
filter. Then reinsert the grill with the filter back into the vacuum cleaner.
Caution:
Put the filter in the vacuum cleaner with the plastic grill facing outwards!
Cleaning the filters
All filters in the vacuum cleaner are washable. When soiled, wash them under lukewarm running water.
When the filters are so heavily clogged that cleaning does not help, replace them for new ones. Before
reinserting the filters into the vacuum cleaner, make sure that they are completely dry.
Caution:
The vacuum cleaner is equipped with a thermal fuse, which will automatically be engaged when
the vacuum cleaner is overloaded (e.g. when filters are clogged). It is then only possible to start
the vacuum cleaner again after it has cooled down. For this reason, carry out regular cleaning,
i.e. replace the filters – this will extend the lifespan of the vacuum cleaner!
