Getting the best results
(see page 5)
Carpets: Use the floor nozzle with
the lever in horizontal position.
Hard floors: Use the floor nozzle
with the lever in vertical position.
Loose rugs/curtains/lightweight fabrics:
Reduce the suction power. Use the floor
nozzle for loose rugs and the upholstery
nozzle for curtains, cushions etc.
Confined areas: Use the crevice nozzle
for crevices, corners and radiators.
Dustbag indicator and
changing the dustbag
(see page 5)
For peak performance the dustbag
must be changed when full. If the
dustbag should accidentally get
broken in the cleaner, take cleaner to
an AEG Service Centre for cleaning.
Check the dustbag regularly and
replace when necessary. The dustbag
indicator window will gradually turn
red when filling and completely red
when full.
To check the dustbag, the cleaner
must be switched on, with all attach-
ments connected and off the floor.
The dustbag full indicator may
signify that the bag is blocked
(occasionally caused by very fine
dust) which will cause loss of suction
and may result in overheating. If this
occurs change the dustbag even if it
is not full.
To change the dustbag
Release catch and swing back lid
before removing the dustbag.
Remove the dustbag.
Insert new dustbag by fitting the bag
slots over holders.
We recommend the dustbag is changed
after using a carpet cleaning powder
if there is a bad smell from the
cleaner, then you should also
change the filter
Note: Use only AEG original dustbags
and filters (ref GR50).
Dust bag safety device:
To avoid damaging the cleaner do
not use it without a dustbag. A
safety device is fitted which
prevents the cover closing without
a dustbag. Do not attempt to force
cover shut.
Changing the filters
(see page 5)
There are two filters inside your
cleaner. Never use the cleaner
without the filters in place.
To clean Motor Protection filter
The Motor Protection filter should
be cleaned when dirty.
Release catch, remove the lid and
the filter.
Wash the filter in warm water.
Allow to dry and re-insert the clear
filter. Close the lid.
To change Micro filter
The Micro filter should be changed
with every fifth dustbag.
Release catch, open the filter cover
and remove filter with grill.
Take the filter out of the grill.
Insert new filter into the grill, put it
back into the cleaner. Close the cover.
To change HEPA filter (366)
Release catch, open the filter cover.
Take the filter with grill out of the
cleaner.
Insert new filter with grill, and close
the cover.
