Cleaning the vacuum cleaner

The casing, dust container and filter seats can be wiped with a damp cloth if necessary. No liquid
must enter the vacuum cleaner in the process. Never use heavysduty cleaning substances (stain
removers, thinners) because they can corrode the plastic surfaces. Only put the plug back into the
mains socket when you are sure that all parts are thoroughly dry.
IMPORTANT: Do not lubricate or oil any rotating parts, since this could cause dirt and fluff to stick
even further

Cleaning the brushes

While the appliance is switched on, move your hand between the bristles on the brush to free them
of any trapped dust, which will then be sucked into the cleaner.
