Maintenance

Switch off and disconnect from the mains supply before carrying out
cleaning and maintenance.
To ensure your vacuum cleaner works at optimum efficiency, keep the
ventilation holes and vacuum cleaner surface free from dirt.
Ensure that the dust container is emptied and the air filters are washed
regularly.
1. Wipe the outside of the vacuum cleaner and accessories with a damp 
(not wet) cloth and then wipe dry. Do not use detergents, solvents or 
abrasives as these may scratch or damage the surface.
2. Never immerse the vacuum cleaner, cable or plug in water.
3. When not in use, store in a cool, dry place.

Emptying the dust container

container or when the suction power is reduced, it is time to empty
the dust container.
2. Switch off and disconnect from the mains supply.
3. To keep your vacuum cleaner running efficiently and effectively, it is 
recommended to empty the dust container after each use
