Hepa filter
This model comprises the Hepa filter. The Hepa filter
ensures maximum protection against allergens and high
air quality, because the air given back by the appliance is
entirely free from dust/powder residues.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning or maintaining the vacuum cleaner,
make sure it has been unplugged from the electrical
outlet. Do not use aggressive substances or abrasive
materials to clean the appliance, its internal parts and
attachments. Use a dry or slightly damp soft cloth for
cleaning. Make sure the appliance and all its parts are
thoroughly dry before restarting the appliance. We
suggest to clean the filter at least every 6 months to
restore its filtering power. In any case we recommend
replacing the filter at least every year to ensure
maximum performance. Always operate the vacuum
cleaner with the filter installed.
