Filter care
D-11 Exhaust filter
Exhaust filter is installed in the rear side of the
vacuum cleaner.
This filter retains any small dust particles which
may be present in the expelled air. It is advisable to
change the filter once or twice a year, depending on
use. To change the filter, hold the exhaust cover (as
illustrated) and pull it out.
After changed the filter, set the exhaust cover to its
position (as illustrated).
NOTE:
IMPORTANT: Never use the cleaner without the correct
filters properly installed. Failure to do so may
result in damage to the motor.
What to do if your cleaner does not work
Check that the appliance is correctly plugged in and that the
electrical socket is working. In case that the thermal cut-out
device has operated, wait until it resets after approximately 60
minutes.
If after having checked the mentioned points, the cleaner does
not work, take it to an Authorized Service Centre to be repaired.
What to do when the suction performance
reduces
• Stop the cleaner and unplug from the socket.
• Check whether the wands, hose and accessories are blocked or
not. If they are blocked, remove the obstruction.
• Check that the dust bag is full. If it is full, replace it to a new
one.
• Check that Pre-motor Filter or Exhaust Filter is blocked with
dust. If they are blocked, clean them out or replace.
