Replacing/Inserting the Dust Bag
(see figure A)
– Unlock the latches 11 and remove the vacu-
um lid 3.
– Pull off the full dust bag 16 from the connec-
tion flange toward the rear. Close the open-
ing of the dust bag by folding down the lid.
Remove the closed dust bag from the vacu-
um cleaner.
– Slide the new dust bag 16 over the connec-
tion flange of the vacuum cleaner. Make sure
that the full length of the dust bag 16 faces
against the inner wall of the container 9.
Reattach the vacuum lid 3.
– Lock the latches 11.
For dry vacuuming operation, a dust bag 16
should be inserted. When operating with a dust
bag 16, the folded filter 17 clogs slower, the vac-
uuming performance is kept up longer and the
disposal of dust becomes easier.
Mounting the Vacuum Hose
(see figure A)
Mount the vacuum hose 8 onto the hose connec-
tion piece 7 and turn it in clockwise direction to
the stop.
Insert the extension tubes firmly into each oth-
er.
Note: Bosch recommends using static-discharg-
ing hoses with a hose Ø of 19 or 35 mm.
