Maintaining the exhaust filter
The exhaust filter is designed so that it does not need
to be replaced, provided the appliance is used as inten-
ded in the household.
To ensure that the vacuum cleaner is working at its op-
timum power level, the exhaust filter should be rinsed
out after one year. The filtering action of the filter re-
mains intact, even if the filter surface becomes disco-
loured.
