Changing the motor protection filter
Switch off the vacuum cleaner and remove the dust filter bag as
described above.
Remove the filter holder with motor protection filter (Fig. 15/1). You first
flip the filter holder forwards and then pull the filter up and out.
Remove the motor protection filter (Fig. 16/1) from the filter holder
(Fig. 16/2) over a dustbin. Clean the filter holder.
If the new motor protection filter is too large, lay the old filter onto
the new filter mat. Mark the contours and cut the new filter down to
size with a pair of scissors.
Insert the new motor protection filter into the filter holder.
Insert the filter holder with the new filter into its bracket and push it
down until it audibly locks into place.
Replace the dust filter bag and close the dust compartment cover.
The cover clicks into place audibly.
Cleaning the Powerhead roller brush
The powerhead is a very low maintenance appliance. If the power head motor is working, but the roller
brush is not rotating, it may mean that the belt has snapped. Please take the appliance to an approved
service agent/repairer to fit a new belt.
The brush strips on the power head will eventually wear away. Please take the appliance to an approved
service agent/repairer who can fit a new set of brush inserts.
If the roller brush becomes blocked or jammed for any reason, the roller brush may need to be cleaned.
First turn off the device, and then carefully use a pair of scissors or a sharp knife to remove any items
such as threads that may have become entangled, and then turn the unit back on to check that the brush
can now spin freely. If the roller brush still does not spin freely when the unit is turned on, you may have
to unscrew the hatch cover to inspect the condition of the belt.
Cleaning the housing
Clean the outside of the housing using a slightly damp cloth only.
Always switch off the appliance and disconnect it from the mains before cleaning it.
Do not use cleaning or scouring agents or alcohol, as these might damage the appliance.
