Note: Before wet vacuuming, the dust bag 14
must be removed and the container 5 must be
emptied.
The vacuum cleaner is equipped with a float 12.
When the maximum filling height is reached, the
vacuum cleaner switches off. Set the On/Off
switch 9 to position "0" and empty the contain-
er 5.
After vacuuming, remove the permanent filter
11 to prevent the forming of mould and allow it
to dry thoroughly; especially before using it for
dry vacuuming.
Maintenance and Service
Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any work on the vacuum cleaner it-
self, pull the mains plug.
For safe and proper working, always keep
the vacuum cleaner and ventilation slots
clean.
If the replacement of the supply cord is neces-
sary, this has to be done by Bosch or an author-
ized Bosch service agent in order to avoid a safe-
ty hazard.
If the vacuum cleaner should fail despite the
care taken in manufacturing and testing proce-
dures, repair should be carried out by an after-
sales service centre for Bosch power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts orders,
please always include the 10-digit article
number given on the type plate of the vacuum
cleaner.
Removing/Replacing the Permanent Filter
(see figure C)
To maintain the optimum performance of the
vacuum cleaner, clean the permanent filter 11
by brushing off or rinsing with water after each
use.
The permanent filter 11 can be replaced, if re-
quired. Cut through the band at the soiled per-
manent filter 11 and remove the inserted plastic
basket 15. Press the plastic basket 15 firmly into
the new permanent filter 11.

Container
Wipe out the container 5 from time to time with
a commercially available, non-scouring cleaning
agent and allow to dry.
Malfunctions
In the case of insufficient vacuuming perform-
ance, check the following:
– Is the vacuum lid 10 attached properly?
– Is the hose system clogged?
– Are the extension tubes connected firmly?
– Is the container 5 full?
– Is the dust bag 14 full?
– Is the permanent filter 11 clogged with dust?
Emptying at regular intervals ensures optimum
vacuuming performance.
If the vacuuming performance is not achieved
thereafter, take the vacuum cleaner to customer
service.
