Filters
The vacuum cleaner has the following filters:
• Lamellen filter:
For the filtering out of light dust particles. This
filter should be cleaned every two months
(see chapter „Lamellen filter“).
• Motor protection filter:
Should the lamellen filter not function properly,
the motor protection filter prevents larger dust
particles from damaging or destroying the
motor. This filter should be checked every
6 months.
• Exhaust filter:
For filtering the smallest dust particles from the
blown-out exhaust air. This filter should be
checked every 6 months.
The filters can become blocked after a period of
time. The suction power is thereby reduced.
Observe absolutely the given time periods for
cleaning and checking. Should a filter be
damaged, exchange it immediately.
Attention!
Do not clean the filters in a dishwasher! They could
become irreparably damaged.
