vacuum cleaner is connected to the mains volt-
age and is ready for operation.
B Suction power adjustment.
With the power adjustment wheel you can set
the power of your vacuum cleaner to the opti-
mum value for the relevant cleaning work.
NOTE: If the power adjustment wheel is turned
fully to the right, this setting gives you a strong
suction, economical power setting for most
cleaning work.
C Mega-Power button.
Press the Mega-Power button for cleaning work
which requires a particularly high suction
power. The vacuum cleaner then runs at maxi-
mum power. The Mega-Power indicator lamp
lights up for as long as the Mega-Power stage is
activated. In this power stage, the adjustment
wheel only has the function of the on / off
switch. Power adjustment is not possible in this
stage.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Be sure that the appliance is turned off and that
the mains plug has been removed from the
socket before performing maintenance or clean-
ing.
Changing the Paper Filter
The paper filter must be replaced if the window
on the filter replacement indicator is completely
red when the appliance is operating at maxi-
mum power and the nozzle is raised from the
floor.
The paper filter should be replaced even if it
does not appear to be full because fine dust can
block the pores in the surface of the filter.
The cover can be opened by pressing the button
and folding back until it locks.

Hygiene filter replacement: When removing the
full filter bag, pull the closing tab to automati-
cally close the bag. During this process you must
overcome slight resistance when pulling the tab.
Full dust bags with normal household dust may
be disposed of with household rubbish.
Insert the new paper filter in the guide rails and
slide down to the lower stop (note marking),
only then can the lid be closed. If a paper filter
is not placed in the appliance, the lid cannot be
closed. Please do not use force!
Changing the Microfilter
We recommend
replacing the microfilter
on
every fifth paper filter replacement, at the latest
when the dust level indicator is completely red
with a clean dust bag and the nozzle raised.
Open the lid and fold back until it locks. Remove
the used microfilter (Figure) by the tab and dis-
pose of with household rubbish. Insert the new
microfilter.
Motor Protection Filter
The motor protection filter is a permanent filter
and does not have to be regularly replaced.
The only exception is if the paper filter has
been damaged and the motor protection fil-
ter soiled:
remove the motor protection filter,
clean (only tap out) and refit.
Insert new paper filter.

A highly effective special filter belonging to
Class “S”. This filter offers relief and assistance to
allergy sufferers. The HEPA filter should be
replaced after one year.

paper filter compartment as required. Do not
use solvents or scourers. Clean the floor nozzle
and the brush holder periodically using the
crevice nozzle.
