Dry vacuum cleaning

Caution
Always work with the filter bag inserted, ex-
cept when a cartridge filter is used (option).
The reservoir and accessories must be dry
to prevent parts from sticking together.
Note: If the device is preferably used for
dry vacuuming, we recommend removing
the spray handle and the spray hose.
