Assembly
 Before any work on the vacuum cleaner itself, pull the
mains plug.
Note: For vacuuming, the permanent filter 10 always must be
inserted. In addition, the dust bag 13 must be used when dry
vacuuming.
Replacing/Inserting the Dust Bag (see figure A)
– Unlock the latches 3 and remove the vacuum lid 9.
– Pull off the full dust bag 13 from the connection flange to-
ward the rear. Close the opening of the dust bag by folding
down the lid. Remove the closed dust bag from the vacuum
cleaner.
– Slide the new dust bag 13 over the connection flange of the
vacuum cleaner. Make sure that the full length of the dust
bag 13 faces against the inner wall of the container 4. Re-
attach the vacuum lid 9.
– Lock the latches 3.
When using a dust bag 13, the permanent filter 10 remains
unclogged longer, the vacuuming performance is maintained
longer, and the disposal of dust is made easier.
Mounting the Vacuum Hose (see figure A)
Insert the vacuum hose 5 into the hose connection piece 7 un-
til it is locked.
Insert the extension tubes firmly into each other.
Insert the accessory holder 12 from above onto the holder of
the vacuum lid 9. Afterwards, insert the angle piece into the
accessory holder 12 from the bottom until it can be heard to
latch.
For disassembly of the accessory holder 12, press the ends of
the angle piece together and pull it out towards the bottom.
Remove the accessory holder 12 to the top.
Removing the Vacuum Hose (see figure A)
To remove the vacuum hose 5, press the unlocking button 6
to the left and pull out the vacuum hose 5 at the same time.
Operation
Starting Operation
 Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the
nameplate of the vacuum cleaner. Equipment marked
with 230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
To start the vacuum cleaner, set the On/Off switch 8 to posi-
tion "I".
To switch off the vacuum cleaner, set the On/Off switch 8 to
position "0".
Wet Vacuuming
 Do not vacuum inflammable or explosive fluids; for ex-
ample, benzene, oil, alcohol, solvents. Do not vacuum
hot or burning dust. Do not operate the machine in
rooms where the danger of an explosion exists. The
dusts, vapours or fluids can ignite or explode.
1 609 92A 1ER | (2.7.15)
 The vacuum cleaner may not be used as a water pump.
The vacuum cleaner is intended for vacuuming air and wa-
ter mixtures.
 Before any work on the vacuum cleaner itself, pull the
mains plug.
Note: Before wet vacuuming, the dust bag 13 must be re-
moved and the container 4 must be emptied.
The vacuum cleaner is equipped with a float 11. When the
maximum filling height is reached, the vacuum cleaner
switches off. Set the On/Off switch 8 to position "0" and emp-
ty the container 4.
After vacuuming, remove the permanent filter 10 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 itself, 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 necessary, this has to
be done by Bosch or an authorized Bosch service agent in or-
der to avoid a safety hazard.
Removing/Replacing the Permanent Filter (see figure B)
To maintain the optimum performance of the vacuum cleaner,
clean the permanent filter 10 by brushing off or rinsing with
water after each use.
The permanent filter 10 can be replaced, if required. Cut
through the band at the soiled permanent filter 10 and re-
move the inserted plastic basket 14. Press the plastic basket
14 firmly into the new permanent filter 10.
Container
Wipe out the container 4 from time to time with a commercial-
ly available, non-scouring cleaning agent and allow to dry.
Malfunctions
In the case of insufficient vacuuming performance, check the
following:
– Is the vacuum lid 9 attached properly?
– Is the hose system clogged?
– Are the extension tubes connected firmly?
– Is the container 4 full?
– Is the dust bag 13 full?
– Is the permanent filter 10 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.
