Cleaning The Suction Openings; Problem Solving - Medion micromaxx MD 16431 Bedienungsanleitung

9.2. Cleaning the suction openings

After a while, dirt and dust can collect around the suction openings and can reduce
the suction power. To avoid this, the suction openings should be cleaned regularly.
 Switch off the appliance.
 Remove dirt and dust from in and around the suction opening on the handheld
appliance and around the brush, as well as from the suction tube in the vacuum
cleaner foot.
You can remove the brush on the vacuum cleaner foot for cleaning purposes:
 Use a suitably sized coin to turn the brush locking mechanism in an anticlock-
wise direction and then remove the cover. Remove the brush and clean it.
 Insert the brush again so that the triangular recess on the brush fits the triangu-
lar lug on the foot housing and the other end with the flat side is pointing up-
wards. Then replace the cover and lock it again with the brush locking mecha-
nism by turning it in a clockwise direction.
 In the event of a clogged vacuum cleaner foot, remove it from the upright vacu-
um cleaner housing by pressing the release button on the bottom of the upright
vacuum cleaner housing backwards and pulling off the foot at the same time.
Remove the foreign body from the vacuum cleaner foot and the suction tube on
the upright vacuum cleaner housing.
 Then assemble the upright vacuum cleaner as described above.
