If the dust container is full or blocked, the filter sta-
tus indicator flashes red and the blue indicator goes
out.
If the appliance is not switched off and the contain-
er is not emptied, after a short while the indicator
will switch to a permanent red and the appliance
will be automatically switched to the lowest power
setting.
The vacuum power setting cannot be changed until
you have switched the appliance off and on again.

opaque. This does not, however, affect the perfor-
mance of the vacuum cleaner in any way, i.e. it will
continue to function as normal.
Cleaning the permanent filter and Microsan filter
The filters must be cleaned:
If you vacuum until the filter status indicator lights up.
After any malfunctions, i.e. after a blockage is
cleared.
At least every six months.
