 Reinsert the cleaned pre-filter into the
cleaned dust container as far as it will
go (Fig. 37).
 Close the dust container flap, making
sure it clicks into place.

Cleaning the fine dust filter

(Fig. 33 + 38)
Clean the fine dust filter thoroughly at
least once every 3 months outside the
PowerUnit.
 Turn the screw cap 10 times by 180°
(Fig. 33).
When turning the cap, you will hear a
noise, which is a normal part of how the
ComfortClean self-cleaning function
works.
 Press both release buttons at the side
of the fine dust filter lid and remove
the fine dust filter by pulling it up-
wards (Fig. 38).

Risk of damage caused by incor-
rect cleaning.
The fine dust filter can become dam-
aged and be less effective as a res-
ult.
Do not clean the fine dust filter with
water and avoid cleaning the inside.
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged
objects to clean the filter. Do not
brush the fine dust filter (not even
with the cleaning tool supplied).
 Hold the fine dust filter over a bin.
 Empty the fine dust filter by carefully
tapping the lower edge.
 Turn the fine dust filter slightly while
you do this to free the dirt from all of
the crevices.

 Refit the cleaned fine dust filter into
the PowerUnit, making sure it clicks
into position.
To continue achieving the best pos-
sible cleaning results, replace the fine
dust filter with a new one after approx.
3 years.
Cleaning the electrobrush/handheld
brush (depending on the model)
(Fig. 39)
 Disconnect the electrobrush/hand-
held brush from the vacuum cleaner
(Fig. 05).
 Place the electrobrush/handheld
brush upside down on a level, clean
surface.
 Cut any threads or hairs that have
wound themselves around the roller
brush with a pair of scissors. To guide
the scissors, there are two guide
tracks on the roller brush (Fig. 39).
Then run the vacuum cleaner to va-
cuum up the cut threads and hairs.
If the small running wheels are very
heavily soiled or blocked, you can re-
move them for easier cleaning (not
possible in the case of the handheld
brush). To remove them, use a flat-
head screwdriver.
Removing the roller brush from the
electrobrush (Fig. 40)
You can take the roller brush out of the
electrobrush in order to remove stub-
born soiling and clean the inside of the
electrobrush.
