Thomas GENIUS S2 AQUAFILTER Gebrauchsanweisung Seite 16

To make sure that the liquid found in the suction tube does not run
back into the suction tube when not working hold the suction tube and
hose upwards at an angle for a few seconds with running motor. Only
switch off the appliance after doing this.
The float in the dirty water tank automatically interrupts the
suction cleaning operation when the dirty water tank is full.
(You can clearly hear the motor running at a higher speed in
this case). Switch off the appliance, disconnect the mains power
supply plug and empty the dirty water tank.
Cleaning and maintenance
Only service and clean the appliance when it is switched off
and the mains power plug has been disconnected.
Please use a moist soft cloth to clean the appliance housing.
Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents or solvents.
After vacuuming
1. AQUA filter system
Open housing cover by lifting up the cover catch.
Remove dirty water tank.
Pull the AQUA filter (9) out of the dirty water tank by means
of the grip and pour the dirty water away (for example in the
toilet).
Remove foam filter (9a). To do this pull the AQUA filter frame
slightly upwards and then fold it over to the side out of the
way.
Now thoroughly rinse the AQUA filter, foam filter, wet
filter and the dirty water tank with clear water. Do not
use any cleaning agents.
It is essential to ensure that the parts are dry before
being refitted.
The filter can be also removed for easier cleaning when dirt and
fluff have blocked the suction filter (9b); refit the suction filter after
cleaning.
Remove contamination and fluff on the suction connector.
2. HEPA filter
Your GENIUS S2 AQUAFILTER is provided with a high quality HEPA
filter (11), which can be cleaned several times depending on your
needs and the type of dust found in your home.
Clean your appliance when the suction power decreases and as when
needed (at the latest every six months). Proceed as follows:
Remove the HEPA filter from the appliance and knock out the
dirt on a firm underlay.
If the filter is strongly contaminated it can also be rinsed out
with clear water (without cleaning agent) and be subsequently
cleaned by knocking out the dirt.
Do not use any brushes for cleaning. Always allow the filter
to dry out thoroughly before fitting it back into the appliance
again.
Do not damage the filter fins when cleaning the HEPA
filter.
The filter is to be replaced by a new filter should the suction power of
the appliance not be improved to a considerably extent after cleaning
the HEPA filter.

3. MKA microfilter
The MKA microfilter (16) is to be replaced every six months.

fold it back.

After sucking up liquids
Empty the dirty water tank.
Clean the anti-swash insert, dirty water tank and wet filter
using clear, possibly warm water.
Check motor protection filter for contamination and if necessary
clean under flowing water or renew if necessary.
Keep the float (10b) in the dirty water tank clean and fully
functional at all times. It interrupts vacuuming when the dirty
water tank is full.
Wipe up spray water accumulating in the suction chamber with
a soft cloth.
Remove any contamination on the intake connector and on the
inside of the closing cover.
