Emptying the dust container (B)
The container is clear, which means it is easily possible to see when it needs to be emptied.
- Press the release button and at the same time, remove the dust container (B) using the relevant
handle (C) (FIG. 6).
- Empty the dust from the container (B) by opening the lid by pressing down on the release button
(FIG. 7).
CAUTION: Only wash the filter using clean water; never use soap or detergent.
- To clean the container (B) thoroughly, it needs to be taken out and disassembled, as follows:
- remove the lid by turning it anticlockwise (FIG. 8);
- pull
the filter upwards and out (FIG. 9).
IMPORTANT: Wash the filter with clean water only. Do not use soap or detergents.
This operation needs to be carried out every 6 months or whenever the vacuum cleaner suction
power is visibly reduced.
- The container needs to be reassembled before it can be used again (B).
- insert the filter inside the container (B);
- put the lid back on the container (B), moving the triangle mark on the lid so that it is in line with the
symbol “ ” on the container and turning it clockwise until it completely locks into place (FIG. 10).
- Refit the reassembled dust container (B) onto the appliance, pressing down until it clicks into place
(FIG. 11).
Cleaning the HEPA exhaust filter
This filter cleans the air a final time before it leaves the vacuum cleaner. The motor filter and its special
covering need to be cleaned on a regular basis.
- Turn the cover on the side of the appliance anticlockwise and remove it (FIG. 12).
- Take out the filter and rinse it under running water (FIG. 13). Leave it to dry thoroughly.
- Refit the filter and lid, turning it so that the triangle mark is lined up with the “
” symbol on the
appliance. Turn it anticlockwise to lock it into place (FIG. 14).
WARNING: Only wash the filter in clean water, without using soap or detergents.
WARNING: This operation is necessary at least once every 6 months or in any case, when suction
power is notably reduced.
Cleaning the vacuum cleaner
The casing, dust container and filter seats can be wiped with a damp cloth if necessary. No liquid must
enter the vacuum cleaner in the process. Never use heavy-duty cleaning substances (stain removers,
thinners) because they can corrode the plastic surfaces. Only put the plug back into the mains socket
when you are sure that all parts are thoroughly dry.
IMPORTANT: Do not lubricate or oil any rotating parts, since this could cause dirt and fluff to stick
even further.
