13. CLEANING THE DIRT COLLECTOR
(ordinary maintenance)
13.1 Ensure that the appliance is switched off and disconnected
from the mains.
13.2 Disconnect the dirt collector and remove it.
13.3 Hold the upper handle and turn clockwise.
13.4 Slowly remove the filter unit, pulling upwards and empty
the collector into an appropriate container.
13.5 Wash the collector and the filter unit using running water
only. Shake to remove excess water. This action is advisable
especially when liquids are vacuumed and/or when steam is
used.
13.6 Reassemble all the parts following the procedure in reverse
order. The UNICO filter unit does not need to be dried; it is
ready for use immediately, avoiding unnecessary waiting time.
However, before storage, we advise quickly drying the filter
and the collector with a cloth to avoid unpleasant odours
forming.
Empty the dirt collector each time the MAX level is reached
and after every use.
We recommend emptying the collector after every use, before
storing the appliance to avoid unpleasant odours forming.

(extraordinary maintenance)
14.1 Ensure that the appliance is switched off and disconnected

the filter is facing upwards.
14.8 Remove the HEPA filter from the body of the appliance,
disconnecting it from the appropriate lever.
14.9 Rinse the HEPA filter using running water only and shake
gently to remove any excess dirt or water residue; before
replacing the filter in the appliance, leave to dry naturally away
from direct light and heat for at least 24 hours.
The filters should be fully cleaned approximately twice per year.
Should the appliance be used frequently for vacuuming liquid
dirt, repeat the operation more frequently.

sufficiently clean.
15.4 With the dirt collector clean and dry, vacuum air for at least
5 minutes to completely dry the tubes.

It is recommended that the tubes be cleaned every time the
filters are cleaned and after every intensive use of the product.
