Wet vacuuming
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum combustible
u
or explosive liquids, such as petrol, oil, alcohol or
solvents. Do not vacuum hot, burning or explosive
dust. Do not operate the vacuum cleaner in areas sub-
ject to explosion hazards. Dust, vapours and liquids can
ignite or explode.
The vacuum cleaner must not be used as a water
u
pump. The vacuum cleaner is designed for vacuuming air
and vacuuming water mixtures.
Note: The requirements for the degree of penetration (dust
class L) have only been verified for dry vacuuming.
Before Starting Wet Extraction
Empty the container (1) and remove the plastic bag (29) or
the fleece filter bag (37).
Check the fill level sensor (42) for dirt. The fill level sensor
must be clean in order for the dust extractor to switch off
automatically when the container is full (see "Cleaning the fill
level sensor (see figures Q–R)", page 16).
During wet extraction, the automatic filter cleaning
u
function must be deactivated.
Press the automatic filter cleaning button (8) to activate
manual filter cleaning (see "Manual Filter Cleaning",
page 15). This deactivates automatic filter cleaning and
LED indicator A (5) goes out.
Vacuuming up liquids
If you notice a foam or water leak,
WARNING
switch off the vacuum cleaner im-
mediately and empty the container. Otherwise, the va-
cuum cleaner can become damaged.
To switch on the dust extractor, turn the main switch (2) to
position 1.
The dust extractor is equipped with fill level sensors (42). If
the maximum fill level has been reached, the dust extractor
automatically switches off and the two LED indicators A (5)
and M (6) flash simultaneously once a second. Restart pro-
tection is activated and can be deactivated by switching the
dust extractor on and off once.
Note: Check the fill level regularly and empty the container
in good time.
To switch off the dust extractor, turn the main switch (2)
to position 0.
Hold the container (1) in the rear handle section (21) and
twist it forwards to drain the liquid.
