Emptying and cleaning the dust container

Empty and clean the dust container when the dust container is full.
1 Pull up the handle of the dust container lid and lift the dust container out of the dust container
compartment (Fig. 33).
2 Pull the tab on the side of the dust container to open the lid (Fig. 34).
3 Remove the filter unit from the dust container (Fig. 35).
4 Shake the dust container over a dustbin to empty it (Fig. 36).
5 You can clean the dust container under a lukewarm tap.
Caution: Do not clean the dust container in the dishwasher.
6 To clean the filters thoroughly, take the filter unit apart by pressing the tabs located on both sides
of the filter unit and taking the dust filter off the EPA filter. Then clean the EPA filter with the
cleaning brush supplied (Fig. 37).
7 Reassemble the filter unit, snap the EPA filter into the dust filter. Then place the filter unit back into
the dust container (Fig. 38).
Note: If you cleaned the dust container under the tap, please make sure it is dry before you reinsert
the filter unit.
8 Put the lid on the dust container and make sure it locks into place with a click (Fig. 39).
9 Put the dust container back into the dust container compartment and fold down the dust
container handle (Fig. 40).
Caution: Always make sure the filter unit is present inside the dust container. If you use the robot
without the filter unit inside the dust container, the motor will be damaged.

brushes, the suction opening and the contact points of the robot and docking station from time to
time.
1 Place the robot upside down on a flat surface.

3 Clean the side brushes and the shafts of the side brushes with the cleaning brush supplied (Fig. 42).
4 Remove dust or fluff from the front wheel and side wheels with the cleaning brush supplied (Fig.

robot with your thumb (Fig. 46).
