with another (Fig. 09)
Depending on the model, your vacuum
cleaner will be fitted as standard with
one of the following exhaust filters :
a AirClean
b Active AirClean 50 (black)

Do not use more than one exhaust fil-
ter at a time.
When changing the filter please note
1.
If you wish to replace exhaust filter a
with filter b or c , you must com-
pletely remove the filter grille before
you install the new exhaust filter. You
must also activate the TimeStrip ®

Maintenance indicator with reset
but-ton (Fig. 4
1
)
Some models are fitted with a mainte-
nance indicator.
The indicator lights up after approxi-
mately 50 hours of operation, which is
equivalent to about a year of average
use. The level of soiling of the motor
protection filter and the exhaust filter
must be checked at this point.
The indicator must be reset each time
the filters are replaced. The vacuum
cleaner must be switched on to do this.
 Press the reset button.
The maintenance indicator will go out
and reset to zero.
The indicator can only be reset by
pressing the reset button after the
light has come on. Pressing the but-
ton at any other time will have no ef-
fect.
