Frequently Asked Questions

How to better use my product

Can I re-use the dust bag?

- If your vacuum cleaner is fitted with a paper bag or Wonderbag:
• No, when the bag is full throw it away because the pores of the bag surface are blocked, which reduces suction efficiency and could damage the motor.

- If your vacuum cleaner is fitted with a textile bag:
• Yes, you can simply wash it.
• Remove the bag from its compartment.
• Open the bag using the zip, then empty it into the bin.
• Wash the bag in clean water.
• Leave it to dry for at least 24 hours (only replace the bag when it is completely dry).
• Make sure that the zip is fully closed before fitting it back into place.

What should I do to ensure that my vacuum cleaner is operating at maximum efficiency?

Make sure that the accessories, tube and flexible hose are not completely or partially blocked and that the filters are not clogged.
