IMPORTANT Always stop and unplug your va-
cuum cleaner before maintenance or cleaning.

1 • Cleaning the dust

compartment (9)

1.a Quick emptying
When the dust compartment is full, empty it 
as follows: remove the dust compartment by 
sliding down (fig.10), place it over a dustbin 
and press the «push» button to open the 
emptying hatch downwards and empty the 
contents of the dust compartment (fig.11). 
Close the hatch (fig.12), and replace the dust 
compartment (fig.13).

1.b Deep cleaning
The dust compartment should be cleaned out 
regularly.
• Remove the dust compartment (fig.10), then 
separate each component (9).
• Remove the filter foam that protects the 
motor (9c).
• Run the dust compartment (9a) under warm 
water (fig.14), along with the dust separator 
(9b) and the cover (9d) and then let them dry 
or wipe with a dry cloth.
•  Wash the filter foam that protects the motor 
(see paragraph 2).
• Once dry, replace the dust compartment 
components, along with the replacement 
filter foam (9c) that comes with your vacuum 
cleaner.
• Close the dust compartment and reposition 
it on the device.

2 • Cleaning the filter foam 

that protects the motor (9c)

WARNING Never operate the vacuum cleaner 
without the motor filter foam.

To preserve the efficiency of your device, 
do not vacuum extremely fine substances 
(plaster, cement, ash ...) and clean the engine 
protection filter at least once a month. 

It is recommended that you clean the filter 
foam more frequently if you see a drop in the 
efficiency of your vacuum cleaner.

• Remove the dust compartment cover (9d) 
and then remove the filter foam protecting the 
motor (9c) (fig.15).
• Clean the filter foam that protects the motor 
(9c) with warm soapy water. Rinse it and leave 
it to dry for at least 12 hours before putting it 
back in the vacuum cleaner (fig. 16).

IMPORTANT For optimal protection of the mo-
tor, make sure the filter foam is dry before you 
put it back in. It is therefore necessary to leave 
it to dry for at least 12 hours. Your vacuum 
cleaner comes with an additional foam filter 
so you can use the device while the original 
foam filter is drying.

WARNING Never wash the dust compartment 
components or the engine filter foam in a 
dishwasher.

3 • Caring for your vacuum

cleaner

Wipe the body of the vacuum cleaner with a 
soft wet cloth, then dry using a dry cloth  
(fig. 17)

IMPORTANT Do not use detergents or any cor-
rosive or abrasive products. The transparency 
of the dust compartment and/or dust separa-
tor cover may change over time. This does not 
affect performance.
