Your cylinder vacuum cleaner has the following filters:
„
If the dust filter bag is defective, a protective motor
filter (Fig. 22/1) prevents larger particles from destroying
the motor.
Replace: after each 4th dust filter bag, at the latest every 6
months
„
A hygienic blow-out filter (Fig. 22/2) filters the finest

particles from the blown-out air.
Replace: every 6 months
The filters can become blocked after some time and can

thereby reduce the suction power. It is therefore important
that the abovementioned intervals are adhered to.
„
On the other hand, replace a damaged filter as soon as
possible.
ATTENTION:
The filters are not washable. The blow-out filter can not
be re-used.
NOTE:
If it is only slightly dirty, it can also suffice to knock the
protective motor filter over a dustbin. However, we
recommend that you use a new protective motor filter if
you have used 4 dust filter bags (order number:
ZChapter 8, "Spare parts").
1. Switch off the appliance and remove the dust filter bag
as described under ZChapter 4.1, "Changing the dust
filter bag", steps 1-4.
2. Remove the filter holder together with the protective
motor filter (Fig. 23).
3. Separate the protective motor filter (Fig. 24/1) from the
filter holder (Fig. 24/2) over a dustbin.
4. Clean the filter holder.
5. Place the used protective motor filter on the new cut-to-
Fig. 23
size protective motor filter. Draw the outline of the filter
and cut the protective motor filter to fit.
6. If necessary, insert a new protective motor filter into the
2
filter holder.
7. Together with the protective motor filter, push the filter
holder forcefully from above and correctly positioned
(curve up) into its receptacle.
8. Insert a dust filter bag and close the dust chamber
cover. The cover clicks audibly into place.
