Replacing one type of exhaust filter
with another (Fig. 06)
Depending on model, your vacuum
cleaner will be fitted as standard with
one of the following exhaust filters:
a AirClean
b AirClean Plus 50 (light blue)
c Silence AirClean 50 (grey)
d Active AirClean 50 (black)
e HEPA AirClean 50 (white)
Do not use more than one exhaust
filter at a time.
When changing the filter, please note
1. If you wish to replace exhaust filter a
with filter b, c, d or e, it is essential
that you remove the filter grille before
you fit the new exhaust filter.
If you are using exhaust filter c, d or
e, you must also activate the
timestrip® filter change indicator
(Fig. 09).
2. If you wish to replace exhaust filter b,
c, d or e with filter a, it is essential
that you also fit the filter grille* (Fig.
32).

cessories"

The thread lifters on the suction inlet to
the floorhead can be replaced. Replace
the thread lifters if the pile has worn
down.
Lever the thread lifters from the slots.
To do so use a suitable tool, e.g. a flat
blade screwdriver.
Fit new thread lifters.
