„
It is best to empty the dust container after each vacuuming session.
ATTENTION:
Switch off the appliance before emptying the dust container. This will prevent dust from damaging the
appliance.
1. If not already done, take the handheld cleaner out of its receptacle, ZChapter 4.3, "Using the appliance as
a handheld".
2. Hold the handheld with the dust container pointing downwards so that no dust will fall out during opening.
3. Push the release catch (fig. 14/a) on the dust container and twist the container off the motor unit (fig. 14/b).
4. Hold the dust container deeply into a dustbin.

contain any substances not permitted for domestic waste.
