During short pauses in vacuuming, the appliance can
be left standing anywhere in the room. To do this, tilt
the vacuum cleaner forwards slightly in the direction
of the nozzle.
!
Caution: When the appliance is left standing, it must
be switched off because, if the brush is turning while
the appliance is standing still, it could cause damage
to the floor covering.

Emptying the dust container
11
Fig.
In order to achieve the best possible vacuuming re-
sults, the dust container should be emptied after every
use or, at the latest, when dust at one point in the dust
container has reached the marking.
We recommend that you not fill the dust container bey-
ond the marking, as this leads to considerable soiling
of the filter.

When emptying the dust container, always check how
dirty the outer filter unit is and, if necessary, clean it as
detailed in the "Cleaning the outer filter unit" instruc-
tions.

Clean the outer filter unit.
a) It is usually sufficient to lightly shake or tap out the
whole filter unit when the dust container is emptied in
order to dislodge any particles of dirt.
b) If this is not sufficient, you can use a dry cloth to remo-
ve dirt particles from the surface.
If you want to wash the outer filter unit, you must
first remove the filter cartridge from the filter unit.
The filter cartridge must only be reinserted after the
outer filter unit has completely dried.
