CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Youcancleantheaccessoriesandtheappliancewithawetcloth.
Do not immerse the power cord, charging adaptor, or appliance into water
or any other liquid.
Donotuseanyaggressivesubstancesforcleaning,suchassolventsorabrasives!
As a preventive measure, we recommend emptying the dust receptacle(1) and
cleaningthefilterofthevacuumcleaneraftereachuse.
DUST RECEPTACLE EMPTYING
1.Disconnectthechargingadaptor(E)fromthewalloutlet.
2.Holdtheappliancewiththedustreceptacle(1)pointingdownwards.
3.Releasethedustreceptacle(1)bypressingthepawl(2).(Fig.8)
4.Takeoutthefilterandemptytheappliance‘sdustreceptacle(1).
5. Follow the reverse procedure to put back the filter, and reinstall the dust
receptacle(1).
PERMANENT FILTER CLEANING AND REPLACING
