to the level between the Max and the Min level line
marked on the container. (Fig. 3)
- Reassemble the water container back and put the
unit back to the appliance.
SWITCHING ON AND OPERATION
- Insert the hose (3) into the suction hole (5) so that it
clicks into position.
Pressing down the release button will help you to insert

required length and plug it into the mains socket.
(Fig. 7)

vacuum cleaner if you wish to stop vacuuming for
a short while. Slide the catch on the brush into the
groove at the rear of the appliance. (Fig. 11)

power regulator (7) to the minimum position and press
the On/Off pedal. Press the automatic cable rewind
pedal (8) to wind the cable back in. (Fig. 12)
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
When the water is very dirty, the suction is powerless
and the motor’s turning over audibly faster. This means
the dust in the water container is enough or the  lters
are clogged.
Follow the instructions for emptying the water
container (20) and cleaning the  lters.
Emptying and cleaning the water container
The container (20) must be emptied after each use.
- Press the container unit release button (13) and
remove the container unit.
- Remove the water container from the unit and empty
the contents into a dust bin.
- Clean the container, reassemble and put it back on
the vacuum cleaner.
Caution: Water in the container won’t damage the
appliance by normal operation, but do not hold the
appliance upside down or park the vacuum cleaner
vertically on its rear end when there is water in
the container. This will let large amount of water
dampen the inlet  lter and HEPA  lter and even cause
blockage. You can hold the container unit by the
container handle (26).
Cleaning the additional inlet  lter
The nylon  lter (23) and additional inlet  lter (25) must
always be cleaned whenever any type of blockage
occurs with the suction.
- Take out the container unit and remove the water
container (20).
- Turn the locking nozzle (22) anti-clockwise in the
direction of the arrow marked on it to remove it.
(Fig. 13)
- Take the nylon  lter (23) out and clean it by knocking
out the dirt and rinse it. (Fig. 14)
- Remove the inlet  lter unit (Fig. 15) and take the inlet
 lter (25) out of the  lter retainer (24). (Fig. 16)
- Clean the inlet  lter by tapping it or rinsing it when it’s
very dirty.
Cleaning the Permanent HEPA  lter
- Remove the container unit from the appliance.
Take out the HEPA  lter (12) with the sponge (11).
(Fig. 17)
- The sponge and HEPA  lter (12) can be washed
under the tap.
- Leave them to completely dry before re  tting it.
Cleaning the air outlet  lter
- Remove the  lter grill (14) by pressing the release
catch and take it out. (Fig. 18)
- Remove the  lters (15) and clean them by tapping or
rinsing. (Fig. 19)
- Leave them to completely dry before re  tting.
Important:
- Always switch off the vacuum cleaner and disconnect
the power cord from the mains before cleaning the
appliance.
- The vacuum cleaner must never be switched on
unless these  lters are  tted correctly.
- Do not use a scourer, glass-cleaning agent or
multipurpose cleaning product.
- Never immerse the whole vacuum cleaner in water.
- To guarantee trouble-free operation only use original
Ufesa  lters.
- Ufesa recommends that the inlet  lter, HEPA  lter
and the air outlet  lters be replaced yearly (depending
on use). You can  nd these replacements at your local
shopping centre.
