Filter care

Cleaning the plate filter
Your appliance is equipped with a "Sensor Control"
Function. +

Fig. Fig.
This function constantly monitors whether your vacu-
um cleaner is reaching its optimum power level. The
indicator light lets you know when you need to clean
the plate filter, so that the vacuum cleaner can reach
its optimum power level once more.

The indicator lights up blue when the appliance is
working at its optimum level. Once the indicator turns
red and flashes, the plate filter must be cleaned. The
appliance is automatically adjusted back to the lowest
power setting.

Switch the appliance off in order to clean the plate
filter.
!
Caution: the filter can only be cleaned if the appli-
ance is switched off.
‡
Open the appliance lid by pulling the locking tab.
‡
To clean the plate filter, turn the knob at least three
turns through 180°.
You can also clean the filter if the suction is becoming
less powerful, even if the indicator has not lit up. We
recommend that you clean the plate filter each time
before emptying the dust container. It must be clea-
ned at the latest when the "Sensor Control" indicator
lights up.
If the indicator flashes three times in quick succes-
sion, even though the plate filter is clean, this is
probably due to a dirty fluff filter or a blockage. In
this case, the appliance automatically adjusts to the
lowest power setting and the indicator lights up red
permanently.
‡
Switch the appliance off, empty the dust container
and clean the fluff filter according to the instruc-
tions in "Cleaning the fluff filter".

mend that you clean the plate filter each time before
emptying the dust container.

Cleaning the fluff filter

in order to ensure optimum operation of the vacuum
cleaner.

container from the appliance.
a) Take the filter unit out of the dust container.

If this is not sufficient, you can use a dry cloth to
remove dirt particles from the fluff filter.
