Dustbag indicator and changing the dustbag For peak performance the dustbag should be changed when full. The mechanical dustbag indicator window will gradually turn red when �lling and completely red when full. If the dustbag should get broken in the cleaner, take the cleaner to service centre for cleaning. This is not covered by the guarantee. The dustbag full indicator may signify that the bag is blocked (occasionally caused by �ner dust) which will cause loss of suction and may result in overheating. If this occurs change the bag even if it is not full. DO NOT VACUUM VERY FINE DUST (PLASTER, CEMENT, COLD CINDERS...). To check the dustbag, the cleaner must be switched on, with all attachments connected but the nozzle does not have to be placed on the �oor. To change the dustbag 7 Open the cleaner cover. 8 Remove the dustbag from its holder. Insert the new dustbag into the holder. 9 Adjust the bottom corners of the dustbag into the dustbag compartment. 10 Adjust the upper part of the dustbag into the dustbag compartment. 7 Close the dustbag compartment and continue cleaning. We recommend the dustbag is changed after using a carpet cleaning powder or if there is a bad smell from the cleaner. Note: Only use original dustbag and �lters Dustbag (Ref. number: E53n) To maintain HEPA �lter (U4220, U4230) 12 Press the catch to open the �lter cover. 13 Replace the old �lter with a new one ensuring that it is securely in place and the cover is properly closed.

Troubleshooting
Dustbag: please check that the dustbag is placed correctly and ensure that it is not jammed. Power: if the electric power does not come on, disconnect from mains and check plugs, cable and fuses where appropriate. The cleaner may switch itself off in event of severe blockage or excessively dirty �lters. In such cases, disconnect from mains and allow to cool for 30 minutes. Clear blockage and/or replace �lter(s) and restart. The clearing of blocked hoses is not covered by the guarantee. To avoid blockages and maintain suction ef�ciency, the �oor nozzles should be cleaned regularly using the hose handle. Please see additional Volta information towards the back of this booklet. Water: if water is sucked into the cleaner the motor must be changed at a service centre. This is not covered by the guarantee.
