cleAning And MAintenAnce - cleaning or replacing the HePA filter
For best results clean or replace the HEPA filter after
every second or third use of the vacuum cleaner, or
more frequently if the filter is visibly blocked.
Clean the HEPA filter regularly to avoid that
the filter becomes clogged and the engine
overheated.
1. Remove the waste from the dust receptacle (see
“Removing waste from the dust receptacle”).
2. Pull the cover/filter from the dust receptacle.
3. Turn the HEPA filter clockwise to release it, and
then remove it from the cover.
4. Rinse both thoroughly in lukewarm water.
5. Allow the HEPA filter and the holder to dry
thoroughly.
6. Fit the holder and HEPA filter to the dust
receptacle in the reverse sequence. If
necessary, replace the HEPA filter.
• Water could penetrate into the appliance if
the filter is not thoroughly dry. This could result in (electrical) damage.
• Do not clean the filter in a washing machine.
• Do not dry the filter with a hairdryer.
