Cleaning the Motor Filter

The motor filter (2) should be cleaned occasionally. The filter protects the motor.
You can either blow the filter clean with compressed air or wash it under running
water. Wait until the filter is completely dry before placing it in the housing.

Cleaning the Exhaust Filter

The exhaust filter (8) is the final outgoing air filter, and should be checked
occasionally, too.
Open the exhaust filter grille (7) at the rear of the vacuum cleaner by tipping it
downwards. Remove the exhaust filter (8) and tap it over the rubbish bin. As the
exhaust filter is an activated charcoal filter, please do not rinse it in water.

Cleaning the Housing

Unplug the device from the power supply before cleaning.
Wipe the device with a dry or lightly moistened cloth. Do not clean the device
with aggressive chemicals or abrasives in order not to damage the surface.
