Checking/replacing the HEPA filter

- To check if the HEPA filter needs to be
replaced, compare the colour of the HEPA filter
with the shades on the HEPA filter replacement
indicator (F) (fig. 15).

darkest shade on the HEPA filter replacement
indicator, replace the HEPA filter (fig. 16).

Check if the carbon

comparing it with the
recommended
replacement interval
that applies to your
individual use of the
appliance (see table
below).
