The air we breathe contains particles that may be allergens:
mite larvae and droppings, mould, pollen, smoke and animal
residues (hair, skin, saliva, urine). The smallest particles
penetrate deep into the respiratory system where they can
cause inflammation and lung impairment.(H)EPA filters (High
Efficiency Particulate Air) are used to filter out the smallest
particles. With the (H)EPA filter, the air released back into the
room is healthier than the air that is vacuumed.
1 • Changing the bag
The change bag light tells you that the bag is full or
saturated. If you notice that your vacuum cleaner is not
working as well as it should be, turn the power up to
maximum and hold the lifted nozzle above the floor. If the
light stays red, replace the bag.
a) If your vacuum cleaner is fitted with a Wonderbag* (18a) :
IIMPORTANT Wonderbag* UNIVERSAL (Classic,
Freshline, Endura ref. WB4xxx) bags are available from

Remove the bag support from the bag compartment
(Fig.15).
Remove the Wonderbag* bag from the bag support (Fig.16).
Throw the Wonderbag* bag away (Fig.17).
Place a new Wonderbag* bag in the bag support using its
ring (Fig.18).
Place the bag support in the bag compartment and fit the
bag inside the compartment (Fig.19).
Make sure that the bag is correctly positioned before closing
the cover.
b) If your vacuum cleaner is fitted with a synthetic (textile)
bag* (18b) :
Synthetic bags* (ref.RS-RT2274) are available from
Approved Service Centres.
Open the cover to your vacuum cleaner (Fig.14).
Remove the bag support from the bag compartment (Fig.20).
Remove the synthetic bag* from the bag support (Fig.21).

putting the bag back in again (Fig.24).
Place the synthetic bag* on the bag support using its
cardboard holder (Fig.25), place the bag support in the bag
compartment and fit the bag inside the compartment
(Fig.26).
Make sure that the bag is correctly positioned before closing
the cover.
2 • Changing the (H)EPA* filter
cassette (ref. ZR 0029 01*) (for all
appliances fitted with a Wonderbag*
bag)
The (H)EPA filter cassette ref. ZR 0029 01* is available from

CLEANING AND MAINTAINING
IMPORTANT Always switch off and unplug your
vacuum cleaner before servicing it.
IMPORTANT Replace the filtration system once a
year.
IMPORTANT Never operate the vacuum cleaner
without a bag.
For your peace of mind your vacuum cleaner is fitted
with a safety system which tells you that the bag is
inside (the cover won’t close unless you’ve put the
bag in).
Adjust the suction power:
⇨ using the electronic power control (Fig.8) :
• Position (MIN) for vacuuming delicate fabrics (net
curtains, textiles)
• Position (Medium) for everyday vacuuming for all
types of floors, which are only slightly
dirty
• Position (MAX) for vacuuming hard floors and
very dirty rugs and carpets.
⇨ with the manual power nozzle switch :
open the power control flap in order to reduce the suction
power manually and avoid the nozzle ”sticking” to the
surface that has been vacuumed (Fig.9) e.g.: net curtains,
fragile surfaces…
3 • Storing and carrying your
vacuum cleaner
After use, switch off your vacuum cleaner by pressing the
On/Off switch and unplug it (Fig.10). Rewind the power
cord by pressing the power cord rewind button (Fig.11). In
the vertical position place the nozzle in the parking
position (Fig.12).
This allows you to carry and store your vacuum cleaner
when it is in the parking position (Fig.13).
IMPORTANT Wonderbag* COMPACT bags can’t be
used on this appliance. Using them could damage
the vacuum cleaner and may invalidate the
appliance guarantee.
