Filters
The vacuum cleaner has the following
filters:
• Lamellen filter:
For the filtering out of light dust par-
ticles. This filter should be cleaned
every two months (see chapter
"Lamellen filter").
• Motor protection filter:
Should the lamellen filter not func-
tion properly, the motor protection
filter prevents larger dust particles
from damaging or destroying the
motor. This filter should be checked
every 6 months.
• Exhaust filter:
For filtering the smallest dust particles
from the blown-out exhaust air. This
filter should be checked every 6
months.
The filters can become blocked after a
period of time. The suction power is
thereby reduced. Observe absolutely
the given time periods for cleaning and
checking. Should a filter be damaged,
exchange it immediately.
Attention!
Do not clean the filters
in a dishwasher! They could become
irreparably damaged.
