Cleaning the motor filter
The motor filter and its special covering need to be cleaned on a regular basis.
- Use the two levers and lower the hatch in the back section of the appliance (Fig. 9).
- Remove the filter and clean it under running water (Fig. 10). Leave it to dry thoroughly.
- Refit the filter and click the hatch shut.
WARNING: Only wash the filter in clean water, without using soap or detergents.
WARNING: This operation is necessary at least once every 6 months or in any case, when suc-
tion power is notably reduced.
Cleaning the air outlet filter
This filter cleans the air one last time before it leaves the vacuum cleaner. To clean the filter, proceed
as follows:
- Upturn the appliance and open the air outlet filter grid (9).
- The air outlet filter can be seen once the grid has been opened.
- Clean the filter in cold water and leave it to dry.
- Refit the clean (or new) air outlet filter into the grid and return this to the appliance, pressing it down
until it clicks into place.
WARNING: Only wash the filter in clean water, without using soap or detergents.

Cleaning the vacuum cleaner

The casing, dust container and filter seats can be wiped with a damp cloth if necessary. No liquid
must enter the vacuum cleaner in the process. Never use heavy-duty cleaning substances (stain
removers, thinners) because they can corrode the plastic surfaces. Only put the plug back into the
mains socket when you are sure that all parts are thoroughly dry.
Important: Do not lubricate or oil any rotating parts, since this could cause dirt and fluff to stick
even further

Cleaning the brushes

While the appliance is switched on, move your hand between the bristles on the brush to free them of
any trapped dust, which will then be sucked into the cleaner.
