Cleaning the fine dust filter

The fine dust filter is equipped with a
self-cleaning function. When a specified
degree of soiling is reached, the va-
cuum cleaner switches off automatically
for approx. 20 seconds and carries out
a cleaning process.
The ComfortClean button on the va-
cuum cleaner lights up yellow.
Starting the ComfortClean self-clean-
ing function manually (dia. 31)
We recommend starting the self-clean-
ing function manually once or twice a
year if the specified level of soiling of
the fine dust filter has not been reached
in your household.
 With the vacuum cleaner switched
on, press the ComfortClean button
for at least two seconds.
The vacuum cleaner will switch itself off
for approx. 20 seconds and a cleaning
process will be carried out.
The ComfortClean button on the va-
cuum cleaner will light up yellow.
Then the vacuum cleaner will switch it-
self back on at the last selected power
setting.
We also recommend emptying and
cleaning the fine dust container once or
twice a year (see "Fault resolution -
Cleaning the fine dust filter manually").

Changing the battery in the radio-
control handle (dia. 32)
Change the battery approximately every
18 months. One 3 V battery (CR 2032)
is required.
The vacuum cleaner can still be used
when the battery has run out or if
there is no battery fitted.
 Switch the vacuum cleaner on using
the On/Off foot control .
The suction power setting  will flash
in the vacuum cleaner display.
 Press the ComfortClean button on
the vacuum cleaner for at least four
seconds (dia. 31).
The vacuum cleaner can continue to be
used in this way, but only at maximum
power.
 Undo the screw on the battery com-
partment cover using a cross-tip
screwdriver and then remove the
cover.
 Replace the battery with a new one,
making sure the polarity is correct.
 Replace the cover and tighten the
screw back up again.
 Dispose of the old battery in a desig-
nated recycling bin for batteries.
