6.1 Emptying and clean-
ing the dust container
Empty the dust container as soon as the MAX mark
(Fig. 1/18) has been reached, before being stored for a long
time or before dispatching it.
For hygienic reasons, also empty the dust container at
least once every three months.

Remove remaining dust stuck to the cyclone unit or the

soft brush e.g. the 3-in-1 combi nozzle converted to a
furniture brush to do this (Fig. 22.

tainer, check the motor protection filter in the cyclone
unit and proceed as described,

You can dispose of the contents of the dust container
with your regular domestic waste if it contains no waste
materials prohibited in domestic waste.

We advise against cleaning under flowing water as stuck
dirt could clog the cyclone unit.
