ENGLISH
CLEANING/REPLACING OF FILTERS
Pre-motor fi lter- inside the appliance
1. Open the cover and pull the fi lter out of the appliance.
2. Clean or change the fi lter.
Note: The sponge fi lter material in the cleaner will become dusty over time. This is normal and
will not affect the performance of the fi lter. If the sponge fi lter is so dusty that suction does not
return to 100%, then we suggest that the fi lter be removed then rinsed with lukewarm water and
then allowed to dry by for 24 hours by airing not near the fi re or some high temperature objects.
This should be done once six months or when suction appears to be reduced obviously.
All fi lters should be checked regularly, preferably after each cleaning task. The fi lters must be
replaced immediately if they become damaged. Always disconnect the vacuum from the electri-
cal outlet when checking the fi lters.
