Athena paper dustbags.
Reusable dustbag (specific types only)
Instead of paper dustbags, you can use the reusable dustbag (provided standard in some countries).
You can empty and use the reusable dustbag repeatedly.

(Fig. 50)
Micro Filter (specific types only)
When you vacuum dry substances, the electrostatic Micro Filter purifies the exhaust air by removing
minuscule dust particles. The effectiveness of the filter decreases gradually during use.
Normally it suffices to replace the Micro Filter when you insert the first of a new set of
,
paper dustbags.
The indicator of the Micro Filter holder has to stay white. If the filter has turned noticeably
,
grey, we advise you to replace the filter. (Fig. 61)
Replace the filter more frequently if you suffer from a respiratory tract disease (e.g. asthma) or if
you have an allergy (e.g. for pollen, dust, etc).
1 Pull the Micro Filter holder upwards. (Fig. 23)
 Pull the old Micro Filter out of the holder.
 Put the new Micro Filter in the holder and slide the holder back into the appliance.
Foam filter
Replace the foam filter if it is damaged or very dirty.
