DUST CANISTER

Emptying

2Remove the dust canister from the product by pressing the canister release button H Ý.

3Turn the lid quarter-of-a-turn anti-clockwise to unlock, lift off the lid with the pleated filter I.

4Empty the canister into a dustbin.

5Re-fit the dust canister and push back into position.

Allergy sufferers	G
When emptying any vacuum
cleaner, it is difficult to avoid
exposure to dust. To minimise
this risk, please ensure that you
encase the dust canister in a
large bag to empty it. Close the	Þ
bag as tightly as possible round
the dust canister. Remove the
dust canister and close the bag
as tightly and quickly as
possible and dispose of this
immediately. It is advisable to
wear disposable gloves and a
face mask while emptying the
cleaner. If at all possible, ask a
non allergy sufferer to empty the
dust canister when required.
FILTERS	H
Cleaning
To maintain suction, the pleated	Ý
filter must be cleaned using the
cleaning dial each time the dust
canister is emptied. To clean,
turn the filter cleaning dial Þ
clockwise several times G
before emptying.
Pleated filter
In addition to cleaning the
pleated filter with the cleaning
dial each time the dust canister
is emptied, it is recommended
to regularly remove and wash (or
thoroughly brush off) the pleated
filter.	I
To thoroughly clean the filter, it
can be washed in warm water
(no detergent). Leave the filter to
air dry. Ensure the filter is
thoroughly dry before refitting.
See ‘Cleaning the dust canister
filter assembly’ section for a
description of how to access
the pleated filter.
