The dirt container and the filter elements are washable,

but may not be cleaned in dishwashers or washing-

machines. Also, do not use detergents or brushes with

hard bristles to clean them.

3. Pull the pre-motor filter up and out of the

dirt container (Fig. 9/B).

4. Remove the separator and shroud from

the dirt container in an upward motion

(Fig. 9/ C).

5. Remove any residual dirt still clinging to the

dirt container, separator and shroud using a

dry cloth or a soft brush, e.g. the supplied

furniture brush.

shroud with water. Otherwise, adhering dirt particles may

clog the separator and shroud.

Remove larger agglomerations of dirt by

hand. Tap filter over a dirt bin to remove any

dirt and debris.

(Max 40°C).

at room temperature after cleaning. Only put them

back into the appliance when they are completely dry.

9. If one of the filter elements is damaged,

replace it with a new one, > Chapter 5.4,

'Spare parts and accessories'.

10. Put the separator and shroud back into the

dirt container (Fig. 10/B). Take care that the

two wide tabs and the narrow tab engage

in the wide grooves and the small groove,

respectively.

11. Reassemble the pre-motor filter and put it

back onto the separator and shroud

(Fig. 11/A).

11/B). Take care that the two wide tabs

and the narrow tab engage in the wide

grooves and the small groove, respectively.
