Cleaning the air lter or HEPA lter
The exhaust air lter or HEPA lter cleans the air a nal time before it leaves the
vacuum cleaner. This lter and the grid that covers the lter should be cleaned
regularly. You can clean the lter as follows:
1. Turn off and unplug the vacuum cleaner. Always pull
the plug itself, never pull the cord.
2. Open the grid that covers the lter by pushing it
upwards at the clip. The lter is visible when the grid
is removed.
3. Take out the lter.
4. Rinse the lter under cold water and let it air dry
completely.
5. Put the lter back into place or replace the lter by a
new one. Make sure that the lter is placed properly.
6. Seal with the grid. Make sure that the grid clicks into
place.
CAUTION:
• Always use the vacuum cleaner with the lters in place. If not, this can lead to
loss of power or damage to the motor.
• Remove the plug from the socket before cleaning the lters.
• Do not place the lters in the dishwasher.
• Do not use a hair dryer to dry the lters.
