If the dust collection bag fill indicator is still red after the bag has been replaced, this may be due to several
causes:
- some of the air passages (hoses, telescopic tube, suction inlet, brush adapter, or other adapters) are
obstructed;
- the motor filter is dirty;
- the air outlet filter is dirty.
Check for each of the possible causes above and eliminate the problem before you start vacuuming. If the
cause of the problem cannot be identified, hand over the product to the nearest service centre. Never use the
vacuum cleaner if the bag level indicator is completely red during operation. The motor could be damaged
irreparably
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
You may clean the accessories and the appliance with a wet cloth. Never immerse the appliance in water!
Do not use any aggressive substances for cleaning, such as solvents or abrasives!
REPLACING THE DUST COLLECTION BAG
1. Unplug the product from the mains. Disconnect the hose from the suction inlet and open the appliance
cover.
2. Push the flap on the dust retention bag holder; remove the used dust
retention bag (Fig. 3). Dispose of a paper or SMS dust collection bag. Be
careful not to tear the bag when handling. If the bag is made of fabric,
empty it and close it carefully – it can be used repeatedly.
3. Insert a new or empty dust retention bag by fitting the plate in the bag
holder. The bag opening must be aligned with the hose hole in the ap-
pliance cover.
4. Never use the vacuum cleaner without the dust bag installed! If you
forget to insert the dust retention bag or you insert it incorrectly, the
appliance‘s motor may become damaged.
5. Close the cover. Press until you hear a click.
REPLACING FILTERS
• The filters should be cleaned or replaced when they are visibly dirty, or
if the appliance‘s suction power is reduced. Always check the filters after
using the appliance.
• In order to avoid damage to the appliance, do not use it with incorrectly
installed filters.
• Before replacing the filters, disconnect the appliance from the electrical
socket.
• You can buy suitable types of filters from your dealer, or you can order
them from the manufacturer.
CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT OF THE MOTOR FILTER
1. Disconnect the flexible hose and open the appliance cover.
2. Pull the dust collection bag out of its holder so that you can access the
motor filter more easily.

3. Remove the motor filter (Fig. 4). You can clean the filter by tapping it. If the filter is heavily soiled, you may
wash it in lukewarm water and let it dry properly.
4. Insert the cleaned or new motor filter into the appliance and close the cover.
CLEANING AND REPLACING THE AIR OUTLET FILTER
1. Open the air outlet grid in the appliance‘s rear section (Fig. 5).
2. Remove the air outlet filter. You can clean this filter by tapping it, then brushing it with a soft brush. After
this operation is complete, you may clean a very dirty filter by washing and brushing with a soft brush in
lukewarm water with no cleaning agents added. It is important to let the wet parts dry thoroughly. A wet
filter will be damaged by vacuuming! Do not use a hair dryer to dry it!
Note: Wet cleaning may cause more wear and tear of the filter and, consequently, may shorten its service
life.
3. Insert the cleaned or new air outlet filter into the appliance and close the air outlet grid.
