CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Check the hose, dust bag and filters regularly. Empty the hose when it is clogged, replace the
dust bag when it is full and clean the filters when they are dirty.
DISPOSABLE DUST BAGS AND FILTERS
· The dust bag and the motor filter play a very important roll in the efficiency of the vacuum
cleaner. The purpose of the dust bag is to capture dirt, but at the same time the filter needs
to be porous enough to allow air to pass through. If the bag or motor filter get clogged, no
air can pass through the cleaner and no cleaning can take place regardless of how powerful
the unit is.
· To keep the cleaner operating at maximum efficiency, change the dust bag frequently and
clean the filter when needed. Some fine particles can restrict the air flow very quickly and
will decrease the performance even before the bag appears to be full. For that reason, the
bag and filter may need to be changed more often when vacuuming carpet fresheners or
cleaners, powder, plaster dust or similar fine substances.
REPLACING THE DUST BAG AND CLEANING THE MOTOR FILTER
The dust bag must be replaced if the indicator turns red.
Be sure to turn off and unplug the vacuum cleaner before replacing the dust bag or cleaning
the filter. Never vacuum without the dust bag or filters in place.
1.
Turn off and unplug the vacuum cleaner.
2.
Remove the hose from the hose connection and open the dust bag compartment by
pushing the handle upwards and lifting the lid.
3.
Slide the dust bag out of the frame and remove the dust bag from the dust bag
compartment.
4.
If at this point you want to clean the motor filter, take out the filter by sliding it
upwards. Clean the filter by rinsing it under warm water. Let the filter air dry completely
before reinstalling it. Reinstall the filter before placing the dust bag into the dust bag
compartment.
5.
Slide a new dust bag (2 l) in the dust bag frame.
6.
Close the dust bag compartment and push the lid back into place. The spring on the
dust bag frame will make sure that the opening of the dust bag is pushed into the right
position when closing the lid.
