Cleaning and care
Caring for the vacuum cleaner and ac-
cessories

Risk of injury caused by rotating
roller brush.
You can injure yourself on the rotating
roller brush.
Always switch the vacuum cleaner
off before caring for it. Use the On/
Off switch on the handle to do this.

Risk of electric shock from mains
voltage.
If moisture gets into the charger,
there is a risk of electric shock.
Do not let the charger get wet.
- Follow the special cleaning instruc-
tions for the dust container, see
"Cleaning the dust container".
- The vacuum cleaner and all plastic ac-
cessories should be cleaned with a
commercially available cleaner suit-
able for plastic.

Damage due to unsuitable clean-
ing agents.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Contact with unsuitable
cleaning agents can alter or discolour
the external surfaces.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents,
glass cleaning agents, all-purpose
cleaners or oil-based care products.

Using the ComfortClean self-cleaning
function (Fig. 26)
Always run the interim cleaning function
for the fine dust filter before emptying
the dust container. You should also run
it whenever the suction power begins to
drop.
This enables the vacuum cleaner to
achieve the very best cleaning results
again straight away.
 The fine dust filter is located in the lid
of the dust container. Twist it anti-
clockwise by 3 180° turns. Use the
recesses to help you.
When turning the cap, you will hear a
noise, which is a normal part of how the
ComfortClean self-cleaning function
works.
Emptying the dust container
(Fig. 27–31)
Empty the dust container at the latest
when the dust has reached the MAX
marking on the dust container.
 Turn the lid of the dust container in
the direction of the arrow as far as the
first stop. Use the grey gripping sur-
faces to help you do this (Fig. 27).
 Lift the dust container upwards to re-
move it (Fig. 28).
Provided that no prohibited sub-
stances are present, the contents of
the dust container can be disposed of
with normal household waste.
