Starting the ComfortClean self-clean-
ing function manually (dia. 27)
If a large amount of dust has been va-
cuumed at once, the ComfortClean
self-cleaning function should be started
manually either during a vacuuming
pause or immediately afterwards. This
enables the vacuum cleaner to achieve
the very best cleaning performance
again straight away.
 With the vacuum cleaner switched
on, press the ComfortClean button
for at least two seconds.
The vacuum cleaner is switched off
automatically for approx. 20 seconds
and a cleaning process is carried out
which results in operational noise.
The ComfortClean button on the va-
cuum cleaner is lit up yellow.
The vacuum cleaner will then switch
back on automatically and will operate
with the previously selected setting.
We also recommend emptying and
cleaning the fine dust container once or
twice a year (see "Fault resolution –
Cleaning the fine dust filter manually").

When to change the thread lifters

(not possible on EcoTeQ Plus floor-
heads)
The thread lifters on the suction inlet to
the floorhead can be replaced. Check
them from time to time and replace
them if the pile has worn down.

How to replace the thread lifters

(dia. 28)
 Use a suitable screwdriver to remove
the thread lifters from the slots.
 Fit new thread lifters.

 Press the bearing out, and remove.
 Remove the roller.
 Remove any threads and hair, replace
the roller and refit the bearing, locking
it back into position.
Replacement parts are available from
