REPLACING THE DUST BAG AND CLEANING THE FILTERS
The filter system consists of: 1 motor filter (in front of the motor in the dust compartment)
It is necessary to clean the filters regularly to avoid operating problems.
The appliance is equipped with a permanent dust bag, but commercially available dust bags
can be used as well (see chapter "Dust bag reference").
Paper dust bag
The dust bag level indicator indicates when the dust bag should be replaced.
The hose might get blocked by a larger object. In this case the dust bag level indicator will
be red. However this does not mean that you have to replace the dust bag. Just remove
the object, which blocks your tube or flexible hose, and your appliance will function
properly again. Do not forget to unplug the appliance before removing the blocking
object. Replace the dust bag when the dust bag level indicator is completely red.
Disconnect the hose.
Open the dust compartment.
Remove the dust bag from its holder and throw it in the dustbin.
Put a new dust bag in its holder.
Close the dust compartment by slightly pressing on the front cover.
Connect the hose again.
Motor filter
To clean the motor filter (filter situated in front of the motor), switch off the appliance, open the
dust compartment and remove the filter to wash it in soapsuds. (approximately every 3
months). When it is completely dry, put it back in the appliance.
Air Filter
This air filter (situated on top of the motor) guarantees fresh air during cleaning. It should
be replaced approximately every 3 months (depending on the operation frequency)
Switch off the appliance, open the dust compartment, remove the filter and clean it in
soapsuds. When it is dry, put it back and close back the dust compartment.
PRACTICAL HINTS
When cleaning stairs, we advise you to keep the unit in a vertical position.
The tube is equipped with a hook, allowing you to attach the tube either underneath the
appliance for storing it, or to the rear part of the appliance when it is in use, for instance
when you want to move piece of furniture.
The vacuum cleaner requires no other regular maintenance other than the filter cleaning
and bag replacement tasks as detailed here above.
If you notice a loss of suction power, it is probably due to one or a combination of the
following events: blocked filter, full or punctured bag or blockage in tubes. If your
appliance still does not work properly after you have checked those problems, please ask
a qualified electrician for advice.
