Melissa 740-106 - Manual (Page 12)

• The nozzles are to be used as follows:
Floor nozzle (1) Floors (brushes out) Carpets (brushes in)
Furniture nozzle (16) Furniture, curtains, drapes, books, frames, etc.
Crevice nozzle (17) Radiators, corners, skirtings, etc.
• The floor nozzle (1) has two settings. When cleaning hard surfaces (parquet flooring, flooring tiles, etc.), the nozzle brushes should
be extended. When cleaning carpets and rugs, the brushes should be retracted into the nozzle. Press the brush change button
(1a) to switch between the two settings.
• If, during vacuuming, you need to pause to move furniture etc., you can place the floor nozzle in the parking holder behind the
vacuum cleaner (18) using the fixture on the back of the nozzle.
FILTERS
This vacuum cleaner is not equipped with a dust bag. The dust/dirt is sucked up into the transparent dust holder instead. Once the
dust is in this container, it whirls around so that it does not block suction. The air sucked in is cleaned using a coarse filter and a
washable permanent filter, a so-called HEPA motor filter in the dust container, a motor protection filter and an exhaust filter.
Important!
You must never vacuum clean without a filter or when a filter is damaged. If you do, dust will penetrate into the
interior of the vacuum cleaner and damage the motor.
Emptying the dust container and cleaning the HEPA motor filter
It is easy to see in the transparent dust container when it needs emptying. This should be done when it is
filled up to the MAX mark on the side of the container.
1. Turn off the vacuum cleaner, and remove the plug from the wall socket.
2. Remove the dust container from the vacuum cleaner by lifting the handle on the dust container (see
image on the right).
3. Take the dust container to a dustbin.
4. Empty the container by pressing the release button at the bottom of the container (see image in right).
5. Turn the dust container cover round until the small white arrow on the cover points to the icon of an
unlocked padlock. It can now be removed from the container (see image on right).
6. Then remove the HEPA filter from the container by turning it to the left. Remove the coarse filter. Then tap
the HEPA filter gently. (We recommend that you do this while holding the filter in a bag).
7. Brush the filter with a small brush or wash it in lukewarm water without detergent or similar.
Important!
The filter must be entirely dry before you use it in the vacuum cleaner again.
Motor protection filter
The motor protection filter is the round, detachable filter located under the dust container. Brush off any dust
from the small motor filter and clean from time to time using water and a small amount of mild detergent,
each time the container is emptied.
Motor protection filter
Exhaust filter
This microfilter should also be cleaned regularly to maintain suction power.
Press the release button on the filter container behind the vacuum cleaner. Remove the filter and clean it, or
replace the filter.
