5.3 Cleaning the exhaust filter
 Check the exhaust filter each time you check the motor protection filter,
ZChapter 5.2, ‘Cleaning the motor protection filter’.
 Clean the exhaust filter as soon as you see it is dirty.
 Replace the exhaust filter as soon as it deforms or is damaged
(ZChapter 5.4, ‘Spare parts and accessories’).
1. Switch off the appliance, ZChapter 4.3, ‘Switching off’.
2. Push down the release catch of the exhaust filter cover and fold down
the cover (Fig. 13/A).
3. Remove the exhaust filter from its holder (Fig. 13/B).
4. Thoroughly rinse the exhaust filter by hand under clear, cold or luke-
warm running water.
5. Put the new / cleaned and completely dry exhaust filter back into its re-
ceptacle (Fig. 13/B).
6. Fit the exhaust filter cover on the bottom side first (Fig. 14/A) and then
push it into its receptacle (Fig. 14/B). It might be easier if you push
down the release catch in the process (Fig. 13/A).
