Cleaning and care

Emptying the dust separation system

Fig. 

21

In order to achieve the best possible vacuuming re -
sults, the dust container should be emptied after ever y 
use or, at the latest, when dust in the dust container 
has reached the marking at any point.

!

 Caution

   The dust container can only be removed when the 

appliance is in a horizontal position. Therefore, 
place the appliance on the floor to unlock the re -
lease button.

Fig. 

22

a) 

 Press the release button and pull the dust container 
out of the appliance using the handle.

b) 

 Remove the lid from the dust container and empty 
the dust container. 

c) 

 Put the lid back on the dust container.

d) 

 Remove any dir t which may have been lodged under-
neath the container ejector opening.

e) 

 Inser t the dust container in the appliance, so that it 
'clicks' audibly into place.

Maintaining the dust-collection system

In normal operation

If there is a substantial decrease in cleaning perfor-
mance, you should clean the foam filter.

Cleaning the foam filter

Switch off the appliance.

Fig. 

23

a) 

 Open the lid of the foam filter by pulling on the lo -
cking lever.

b) 

 Remove the filter car tridge with foam filter using the 
tab.  
Remove the foam filter from the filter car tridge and 
tap out both par ts. 

c) 

 If they are ver y dir ty, the foam filter and filter car t-
ridge should be cleaned under running water.  
Alternatively, the unit can be cleaned in the 
washing machine at ma x. 3 0 °C using a gentle pro -
gramme and the lowest spin speed.  

TIP:

  To protect other laundr y items, put the filter 

unit into a laundr y bag.

d) 

Allow the foam filter and filter car tridge to dr y com-
pletely (at least 24 hours) and then reinser t the foam 
filter into the filter car tridge.

e) 

Inser t the filter car tridge with foam filter back into 
the appliance. Close the lid of the foam filter.

!

 Caution

  The lid will only close if a filter has been inser ted.

In the event of a fault

After cleaning the foam filter, the cleaning per formance 
is still unsatisfactor y:

Removing a blockage from the dust separation

Fig. 

24

‡

Switch off the appliance.

a) 

 Hold the appliance lid by the recessed handle and 
open it.

b) 

 Unlock the cover by turning it anti-clockwise, and 
remove it from the appliance.

>

= Remove the blockage from the collecting unit.

c) 

Put the cover back on and lock it in place by turning 
it clockwise.

>

= Close the appliance lid.

If, after inspecting the collecting unit, the suction is 
still unsatisfactor y despite the unit being free from 
blockages, check whether the nozzle, suction pipe or 
flexible hose are blocked. This can also cause a loss 
of suction.

Exhaust filter care

Depending on the model, your appliance is equipped 
with either a HEPA filter 

Fig.

25

 or a micro filter 

Fig.

27

.

Depending on the model, your appliance has additional 
sound insulation behind the HEPA or micro filter. This 
does not have to be cleaned.

HEPA filter

You can determine with which HEPA filter your appli-
ance is equipped by looking at the imprint on the filter 
frame next to the reference number:

‡

"washable"

 –  the filter can be washed.

‡

No additional imprint 

– the filter must be replaced.

Cleaning a washable HEPA filter

The HEPA filter with the "washable" imprint is designed 
so  that  it  does  not  need  to  be  replaced,  provided  the 
appliance is used as intended in the household.
To ensure that the vacuum cleaner is working at its op -
timum power level, the exhaust filter should be rinsed 
out after one year. The filtering action of the filter re -
mains intact, even if the filter sur face becomes disco-
loured.
