Cleaning/replacing the exhaust air lter
The exhaust air lter needs cleaning on a regular basis and it should be replaced every 6 to 9 months,
depending on use.
- Remove the exhaust air lter cover using the special lever (FIG. 10).
- Lift the lter out from its compartment and shake it vigorously to clean it. If the lter is extremely
soiled, wash it with lukewarm soapy water and leave it to dry. NEVER use articial means to dry
the lter. To replace the lter, contact an Assistance Centre.
- Replace the lter in its compartment and ret it. When you ret the compartment, make sure that
the rough surface of the lter is visible.
Make sure that the lter compartment is correctly in place before using the cleaner.

Thermal cutout switch
The vacuum cleaner is equipped with a thermal cutout switch to protect it in the event that the motor
overheats. If the vacuum cleaner suddenly switches off by itself, proceed as follows:
- Switch off the vacuum cleaner and unplug it from the mains power.
- Look for the origin of the overheating (blocked suction pipe, dirty lter, etc.)
- Clean the hose, empty the dust container and clean the lters, if necessary.
- Wait for about 30-40 minutes to allow the motor to cool down.
- After 30-40 minutes, insert the plug in the mains socket and switch on the vacuum cleaner.
The vacuum cleaner should now work.
- If the vacuum cleaner still does not work, wait another 20 minutes and then try again.
- If the cleaner still does not work, contact an Assistance Centre.
