Activating the ComfortClean function

(Fig. 28)
Always run the interim cleaning function
for the fine dust filter before emptying
the dust container. You should also run
it whenever the suction power begins to
drop.
This enables the vacuum cleaner to
achieve the very best cleaning perfor-
mance again right away.
 The fine dust filter is located in the lid
of the dust container. Twist it counter-
clockwise by 3 180° turns. Use the
recesses to help you.
You will hear an operating noise, which
is a normal part of how the Comfort-
Clean function works.
Emptying the dust
container (Fig. 29–33)
Empty the dust container before the
dust has reached the MAX marking on
the dust container.
 Turn the lid of the dust container in
the direction of the arrow as far as the
first stop. Use the gray gripping sur-
faces to help you do this (Fig. 29).

 Remove the dust container upward
(Fig. 30).
Provided that no prohibited sub-
stances are present, the contents of
the dust container can be disposed of
with normal household waste.
 Hold the dust container close to the
trash can so that as little dust billows
out as possible.
 Turn the lid of the dust container in
the direction of the arrow as far as the
next stop. Use the gray gripping sur-
faces to help you do this (Fig. 31).
The dust container flap will open and
the dust will fall out (Fig. 32).
If chunks of dust, hair, or coarse debris
do not fall out, remove the pre-filter by
pulling it upward (see "Cleaning the
pre-filter and fine dust filter" below).
 Turn the lid of the dust container back
to its original position.
 Close the dust container flap, making
sure it clicks into place.
 Slide the dust container handle along
the guide line and down on to the
PowerUnit connector from above until
it audibly clicks into place (Fig. 33).
Cleaning the pre-filter and fine dust fil-
ter (Fig. 34–37)
Clean both filters thoroughly at least
once every 3 months.
When cleaning them, it is essential to
follow the steps in the order described.
 Remove the dust container.
 Empty the dust container over a
garbage can.
