Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your AEG ULTIMATE 8000 vacuum cleaner.
1. Emptying the Dust Bin:

- Allow the filter to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinserting it into the vacuum cleaner. Do not use a dryer or direct heat.
- Replace the filter if it shows signs of wear or damage, or if suction power remains low after cleaning.
3. Brush Roll Cleaning:
- Periodically check the brush rolls in the floor nozzles for tangled hair or debris.
- To remove the brush roll, follow the instructions in the specific nozzle's manual (usually involves a release mechanism).
- Use scissors to cut away any tangled hair or threads.
- Clean the brush roll and its housing, then reinsert it.
