Open the dust compartment lid.

^

Press the release button for the dust
compartment lid and raise the lid until
it clicks into place.

Changing the dustbag

^

Grasp the collar by the two finger
holes and pull it out from the dustbag
holder.

The dustbag has a flap which closes
automatically to prevent dust from
escaping when the dustbag is
removed.

^

Dispose the dustbag with the normal
household waste.

^

Do not unfold the dustbag when
taking it out of the box. Keeping it
folded will prevent it from getting
caught when the dust compartment
lid is closed.

^

To insert a new dustbag push the
card collar securely into the frame as
far as it will go.

^

Close the dust compartment lid firmly
until it clicks into place.
