ACTIVE air clean filter
(standard on some models)
This special active charcoal filter ab-
sorbs odors from the vacuumed dust.
The "ACTIVE air clean filter" is used in
place of the "SUPER air clean filter".
There is no difference in the filtration
level between the "ACTIVE air clean fil-
ter" and "SUPER air clean filter".
HEPA Filter
(standard on some models)
This filter has a very high filtration level,
EN 1822. It is capable of filtering out
99.97% of all particles 0.0003 mm in di-
ameter. For larger particles, the filtration
level is even greater. Vacuum cleaners
equipped with this exhaust filter are
recommended for allergy sufferers or
anyone wishing to avoid inhaling LDPs
(Lung Damaging Particles). The HEPA
filter is installed in place of the "SUPER
air clean filter".
Cloth dustbag
If desired a reusable cloth dustbag can
be used instead of normal dustbags. It
can be easily emptied by removing the
clamp at the bottom of the bag.
Do not wash the cloth dustbag.
Washing will permanently damage the
airflow characteristics of the bag.
