Dry vacuuming
Vacuuming with the paper filter bag:
To avoid the fluted filter becoming clogged, we recommend the additional use of a paper filter bag (brown).

1. Fold the side flaps on the paper filter bag (12) down on the perforation.
2. Unfold the paper filter bag (12) completely and invert it over the internal suction fitting of the suction connection (10).
   The sealing ring on the filter bag opening must completely enclose the arm on the suction nozzle.
   A fine dirt filter bag made of micro filter fleece is also optionally available, which can be used in place of the included paper filter bag (see “Replacement parts/Accessories”).

Vacuuming fine dust:

Certain suction processes (e.g. sanding paints and varnishes, drilling walls, grinding or drilling hardwood) can pose a risk due to hazardous dust.
We recommend using the following optional filter combination, which is available, for fine dust (see “Spare parts/Accessories”):

1. Fine dust filter bag made of fleece (optionally available see “Replacement parts/Accessories”), which is used instead of the paper filter bag (12) included in the scope of delivery.

Wet suctioning
For wet suctioning, always attach the water tank ( 19).

1. For wet suctioning, place the foam filter (11) onto the filter basket (4a). To prevent the foam filter (11) from tearing, Only insert dry filters;
2. Before inserting, twist the edge of the filter slightly and then roll it back.
3. Suctioning up (draining): Place the suction hose (16) on the handle part (15) into the water tank and suction up the water.
4. Empty the dirt container immediately after vacuuming, as it is not designed to store liquids (see “Cleaning/Maintenance”).
   Never reach into the water to be suctioned up. Danger of electric shock.
   When the container (7) is full, the suction opening is shut off by a float, and suction is then cut off. Switch the device off, remove the water tank (

19. and the motor head (4) and empty the container (7). Afterwards, make sure to re-assemble the device completely. If the container is full, a float closes the suction opening and the suction process is interrupted.

4. Turn off the device.

5. Empty the container (7) by – removing the water tank ( 19) and the motor head (4) and tipping out the container (7), or opening the drain plug (26) and letting the container (7) run empty. draining in this way, make sure that no liquids remain in the device. Tip the container (7) slightly when only a small amount of liquid runs out.
   Afterwards, make sure to re-assemble the device completely.

6. If foam or liquid exits, switch off the machine immediately.

7. The device must not be used by as a water pump. It is designed to suck up an air/water mixture. When wet vacuuming, make sure that the suction cup is always higher than the water surface to be vacuumed! Otherwise, negative pressure/suction (siphon effect) could occur

Carpet cleaning

For carpet cleaning, only use the washer nozzle with the attachment for hard surfaces ( 24) or the washer nozzle for cleaning upholstery ( 23).

1. Place the foam filter (11) onto the filter basket (4a). To prevent the foam filter (11) from tearing,
