DUST RETENTION BAG FILL CHECK
When the dust retention bag fill indicator becomes red during operation, replace the full dust retention bag
immediately.
If the dust retention bag fill indicator is still red after the the bag replacement, it may be due to several causes:
- Some of the air passages (hoses, telescopic tube, suction inlet, brush adapter, or other adapters) are obstructed;
- Motor filter is dirty;
- Air outlet filter is dirty.
Check each of these causes and remove any of them before you start using the appliance. Should you fail to find the
fault, forward the appliance to the service centre nearest to you. Never use the appliance when the dust retention bag
fill indicator is fully red as this may damage the motor beyond repair.
MAINTENANCE
You can 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!

the dust retention bag or you place it incorrectly, you will not be able to fully close
the appliance cover.

• Filters should be cleaned or replaced when they are visibly dirty, or the appliance‘s
suction power is reduced. Check the filters after every use of the appliance.

MOTOR FILTER CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT
