REPLACING THE DUST BAG

If the bag change indicator changes to orange or the suction power is reduced, the bag may need replacing. Never use the appliance if the bag is full or with no bag at all.

•Lift the nozzle up off the floor.

•Switch the appliance on, and keep an eye on the bag change indicator. If it is orange, the bag must be replaced.

•Switch the appliance off again.

•Detach the hose.

•Open the lid by pressing the button underneath the edge of the lid and lift it until it locks into place.

•Carefully remove the dust bag from the dust bag holder.

•Place the bag carefully in a refuse bin. Make sure that there are no holes in it. Avoid bending or squeezing the bag.

•Insert a new dust bag into the dust bag holder and check the bag is secure and facing in the right direction.

o The arrow on the bag should point downwards into the holder during insertion (see illustration).

•Close the lid and ensure it clicks into place.

REPLACING THE MOTOR FILTER

The motor filter is the filter behind the dust bag. The appliance must not be used without a motor filter.

•Open the lid by pressing the button underneath the edge of the lid and lifting it until it locks into place.

•Remove the dust bag or push it aside.

•Pull the motor filter holder (21) out of the appliance.

•Remove the motor filter sponge (20) and replace or clean as described under Cleaning below.

•Reinsert the filter sponge in the motor filter holder and refit the filter in the appliance.

•Check the dust bag is correctly fitted before closing the lid.

We recommend cleaning the filter at least twice a year, or whenever it is dirty.

The exhaust filter is used to filter exhaust air from the appliance. The appliance must not be used without an exhaust filter.

•Remove the exhaust filter sponge (18) and replace or clean as described under Cleaning below.

We recommend replacing the exhaust filter after 4 to 6 months’ use, when it becomes dirty, or if the suction force of the appliance is reduced.
