Depending on the model, your
appliance has additional sound
insulation behind the HEPA or
micro filter. This does not have to
be cleaned.
HEPA filter
You can determine with which
HEPA
filter
equipped by looking at the imprint
on the filter frame next to the
reference number:
• "washable" – the filter can be
washed.
• No additional imprint – the filter
must be replaced.
Cleaning a washable HEPA filter
The HEPA filter with the "washable"
imprint is designed so that it does
not need to be replaced, provided
the appliance is used as intended in
the household.
To ensure that the vacuum cleaner
is working at its optimum power
level, the exhaust filter should be
rinsed out after one year. The
filtering action of the filter remains
intact, even if the filter surface
becomes discoloured.
