If required, you can also activate cleaning manually by
pressing the "Clean" filter cleaning button.
You can also clean the filter if the suction is becoming
less powerful, even if the indicator has not lit up.
We recommend that you clean the plate filter before
emptying the dust container.
If the plate filter is particularly dirty, it can also be rin-
sed clean.
● Turn the bottom part of the filter system clockwise as
far as the stop.
● Remove the plate filter from the filter system.
● Rinse the filter under running water.
● When it has dried completely, insert the plate filter
into the filter system and lock the bottom part by tur-
ning it anticlockwise.
Under normal circumstances, and the appliance is used
as intended for household cleaning, the plate filter does
not need to be removed or cleaned manually in order to
achieve the optimum power level.
● For simple dry cleaning, simply tap the filter around
the edge of the cap.
● For more thorough cleaning, rinse the filter from the
outside with water, and allow it to dry completely
before using it in the vacuum cleaner again.
Unlock the dust container and take it out of the appli-
ance.
Take the filter unit out of the dust container.
Clean the fluff filter.
When emptying the dust container, always check how
dirty the fluff filter is and, if necessary, clean it as detai-
led in the "Cleaning the fluff filter" instructions.
The fluff filter should be cleaned at regular intervals in
order to ensure optimum operation of the vacuum clea-
ner. It is usually sufficient to lightly shake or tap out the
filter housing when the dust container is emptied in
order to dislodge any particles of dirt.
If this is not sufficient, the brush which is supplied with the
appliance or a dry cloth can be used to remove dirt par-
ticles from the surface.
The Hepa filter is designed so that it does not need to
be replaced if the appliance is used as intended for hou-
sehold cleaning. To ensure that the vacuum cleaner
keeps working at its optimum performance level, the
Hepa filter should be rinsed clean after approx. 3 years.
The filtering effect of this filter in maintained, even
though the filter surface may become discoloured.

vacuum cleaner and plastic accessories can be cleaned
with a conventional plastic cleaner.
