Emptying and cleaning the dirt container
Press the handheld

separate the handheld
from the reach wand.
The reach wand when

Hold the handheld over a bin, press the dirt release
button to allow dirt/debris to fall out.

debris. Do not wash
the separator.
Wash the foam and
filter under running
water (max 40°C).
CAUTION:
Always empty the dirt container before cleaning the separator and filter. Remove the reach wand/
accessories from the handheld. Incorrect fitting of the separator and filter will reduce suction. Always switch off
the vacuum cleaner before carrying out any maintenance or troubleshooting. Do not use your vacuum cleaner
without the filters in place.
WARNING:
Don’t over fill the dirt container to avoid blocking the air flow through the vacuum cleaner.
To access the filter and separator twist the cap anti-clockwise and pull out.
To put the cap back on, push the cap into the unlock position ensuring it is fitted
correctly and twist clockwise to lock.
