Set the power setting to maximum for the best results
when vacuuming.
We recommend that you reduce the setting only when
vacuuming very delicate materials.
Emptying the dust filter
To achieve an optimal result when vacuuming, the dust
container should be emptied each time the vacuum cleaner
is used.

Figure
Release the two snap locks on the bottom flap in the
direction of the arrow, open the flap until it clicks into the
stop position and the container will then empty the dirt in
a downwards direction.
If the bottom flap is very dirty, (thick dirt) clean it before
closing, by vacuuming it with the crevice nozzle, for
example.
(You must fit the dust bag in the vacuum cleaner
when you do this - see Figure 26)
Close the bottom flap so that it can be heard snapping
into position.
22
Figure
Put the dust bag back into the vacuum cleaner and close
the dust bag compartment lid.
!
Caution: The inside of the dust container may
become scratched with use and start to look opaque.
This does not, however, affect the performance of the
vacuum cleaner in any way, i.e. it will continue to
function as normal.
Cleaning the permanent filters and
micro filters in the dust container
The filters must be cleaned:
After any operating malfunctions, i.e. after a blockage is
cleared.
At least every six months.

Wash the micro- and permanent filters.
The filter must then be left to dry for at least 24 hours.
After cleaning, place the permanent filter on the bottom
plate of the container.

Figure
Empty the container (see figure 21)
Loosen the blockage, e.g. with a screwdriver, and tap or
vacuum it out.
(You must fit a dust bag in the vacuum cleaner before
vacuuming it out - see Figure 26)
Close the bottom flap so that it can be heard snapping
into position.
!
Caution: The micro- and permanent filters must be
cleaned following any operating problem (see Figure
23 and 24).
Using dust bags
If desired, a dust bag may be used instead of the dust
container.

Figure
Open the dust bag compartment lid.
Remove the dust container and insert a dust bag.
Close the vacuum cleaner lid.
You have bought an extremely powerful device.
The highest suction setting is therefore only recommended
for heavily soiled, short-pile carpets and hard floors.
The required suction power can be selected by adjusting
the suction regulator (see Figure 9).
Low suction range:
For vacuuming delicate fabrics, e.g. curtains.
Middle suction range:
For daily vacuuming of lightly soiled floors.
High suction range:
For vacuuming durable floor coverings, hard floors and
for heavily soiled surfaces.
Replacing the dust bag
27*
Figure
a) If the dust bag change indicator is completely yellow
when the floor tool is lifted from the floor and the highest
suction power is selected, the dust bag needs changing.
Even if the dust bag is not full, it may still need changing,
due to the type of dust which has been vacuumed.
First check that the nozzle, suction pipe and flexible tube
are not blocked, as this would also lead to dust bag
change indicator being triggered.
