– To remove a full dust bag 18, twist it off the connection
flange 16 in a downward direction – without turning the
lid 17 over.
Operation
 Before any work on the vacuum cleaner itself, pull the
mains plug.

Starting Operation

 Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the
nameplate of the vacuum cleaner. Equipment marked
with 230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
 Only use an undamaged filter (no cracks, small holes,
etc.). Replace a damaged filter immediately.
To save energy, only switch the vacuum cleaner on when us-
ing it.
To ensure optimal vacuuming performance, always complete-
ly unwind the vacuum hose 10 from the vacuum cleaner lid .
Vacuuming of deposited dust
– To switch on the vacuum cleaner, set the
mode selector switch 2 to the "Vacuuming"
symbol.
– To switch off the vacuum cleaner, set the
mode selector switch 2 to the "Off" symbol.
Extraction of dust resulting from running power tools
(see figure D)
A socket outlet with earthing contact 4 is integrated in the
vacuum cleaner. An external power tool can be connected
there. Observe the maximal allowable load of the connected
power tool.
– Fit the extraction adapter 12 (see "Fitting the extraction
adapter or curved nozzle", page 12).
– Insert the extraction adapter 12 into the dust extraction
outlet for the power tool.
Note: When working with power tools that have a low air feed
into the vacuum hose (e.g. jigsaws, sanders, etc.), the air dif-
fuser 20 of the vacuum hose 10 must be opened. This will im-
prove the total output of the vacuum cleaner and the power
tool.
To do so, turn the ring above the air diffuser 20 until the max-
imum opening is produced.
– To activate the automatic
start/stop of the vacuum cleaner, set
the mode selector switch 2 to the
"Automatic Start/Stop" symbol.
– To start the operation of the vac, switch on the power tool
connected to the socket 4. The vacuum cleaner starts au-
tomatically.
– Switch the power tool off to end the vacuuming.
The delayed action shutdown of the Automatic Start/Stop
continues to run for up to 6 seconds in order to extract re-
sidual dust from the vacuum hose.
– To switch off the vacuum cleaner, set the
mode selector switch 2 to the "Off" symbol.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

 Before any work on the vacuum cleaner itself, pull the
mains plug.
 For safe and proper working, always keep the vacuum
cleaner and ventilation slots clean.
If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to
be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in or-
der to avoid a safety hazard.
Cleaning the Filter Assembly (see figures E1–E3)
– Press the release button 8 and pull the dust cup 9 out of
the vacuum cleaner.
– Remove the fabric filter 21 along with its filter basket and
brush down the fabric filter with a soft brush.
– Grasp the flat-fold filter 22 by the bars and remove it to-
gether with its filter basket.
Brush down the flat-fold filter using a soft brush or rinse it
out under running water and leave it to dry thoroughly.
– Re-insert the cleaned filters, ensuring that they are seated
correctly and securely.
Cleaning the Dust Cup
– Wipe the dust cup 9 from time to time using conventional,
non-abrasive detergent and then leave it to dry thoroughly.
Cleaning the permanent filter (see figure F)
Clean the permanent filter 24 from time to time in order to en-
sure that the vacuum cleaner continues to perform optimally.
– Open the exhaust air cover 23 and remove the permanent
filter 24.
– Rinse out the permanent filter 24 under running water and
then leave it to dry thoroughly.
– Re-insert the cleaned filter, ensuring that it is seated cor-
rectly and securely. Close the exhaust air cover again.
Malfunctions
In the case of insufficient vacuuming performance, check the
following:
– Is the hose system clogged?
– Are the filters clogged with dust?
– Is the dust cup 9 full?
– Is the dust bag 18 full?
The vacuum cleaner switches off on overheating. Proceed as
follows:
– Leave the vacuum cleaner to cool down for 60 min.
– Briefly remove the mains plug from the socket and then re-
insert it.
– Make sure that the container 9 and dust bag 18 are empty
and that the vacuum hose 10, filter 21/22 and permanent
filter 24 are not blocked.
Emptying at regular intervals ensures optimum vacuuming
performance.
If the vacuuming performance is not achieved thereafter, take
the vacuum cleaner to customer service.
