If the motor protection filter is only slightly dirty, it can
help to beat out the dust over a dustbin. However, we
recommend to change the motor protection filter each
time you open a new box of dust \>Chapter 6, "Spare
parts and disposal") filter bags.
NOTICE!
Make sure that that the exhaust filter is always properly
locked into position, otherwise the exhaust air will not
be properly filtered.
NOTICE!
ATTENTION
These filters are not washable. The exhaust filter may
not be re-used.
Your vacuum cleaner is equipped with the following filters:
• Motor protection filter (Fig. 19/1)
prevents larger
particles from destroying the motor in case the dust filter
bag is defective.
Changing: Every time you open a new box of dust filter
bags, as they always contain a new motor protection
filter, but at least every 6 months.
• Hygienic exhaust filter (Fig. 19/2)
removes
microscopic particles from the exhaust air stream.
Changing: every 6 months
The filters can become clogged with time and reduce the
appliance's performance. That's why it is important to
adhere to the above changing intervals.
Damaged filters must be removed immediately.
