• Insert the vacuum tube into the handle if required.

Using the Appliance

1. Fit on the accessory.
2. Unwind the necessary length of cable and insert the plug in a duly installed 230 V/50 Hz protective contact socket.
3. Set the vacuum power with the vacuum power regulator (Min to Max).
4. Vacuum at a steady speed. There is no need to exert pressure.

Attention: pay attention to the range that can be covered with the cable length.

Vacuum power regulator

Low vacuum power: For curtains and delicate fabrics Medium vacuum power: For long-pile velour carpets and textile flooring

High vacuum power: For sturdy rugs and floors

Cable winding device

Pull out the cable up to the maximum length indicated with the yellow mark. Never pull the cable out up to the red mark as the cable winding can be damaged. Said damages are not covered by the warranty.

Winding

Press the cable winding button and guide the cable. Hold the cable to avoid wrapping.

Telescope Vacuum Pipe

Nozzle accessories

Groove and brush nozzle:

For vacuuming upholstery, curtains and in corners and crevices etc.

Upholstery nozzle: For cleaning upholstery, curtains etc.

Floor nozzle: To clean carpets or smooth surfaces.

Smooth floors:

Press down the lever with the brush symbol ,mmigh-wn foot.

The brush is now visible..

Carpets:

Move the lever with your foot to the "symbol"

Parquet brush: The floor nozzle is fitted with rollers for improved manoeuvrability. For large areas such as parquet, laminate or tiles etc.

Move the switch on the brush to Symbol A in order to increase the quantity of suction air. In the case of symbol (B) this is correspondingly less. This increases the suction power.

Releasing the nozzles: Pull these off while turning slightly.

Air Slide

Open the air slide on the hose handle in order to regulate the airflow or to clear any particles sticking to the nozzle.

Filter

Your machine has three filter systems. The traditional dust bag system has been replaced by a transparent dust container. In this, coarse dirt particles and tiny particles floating in the air are swirled out of the suction air by the high speed of the air current.

It is therefore unnecessary to buy dust bags.

Once the dust level has reached the MAX mark on the dust container, or the suction power of the vacuum cleaner is reduced, please proceed as follows:

Emptying the Dust Container

- Press the button to release the dust container and remove it from the vacuum cleaner.

- Pull the filter insert out carefully by the two retainers. Move the dust container to a vertical position if necessary.

- Empty the contents of the dust container. Then put the filter insert back in position. Please ensure that the filter insert is reinstalled firmly in an upright position.

Attach the dust container again by locking it in position.

1. Motor Protective Filter (in the Dust Container)

Cleaning the Filter Element

• Press the button to release the dust container and then remove it (see illustration 1).
• Empty the contents of the dust container (see Illustration 2). Unlock the filter insert by turning it a short distance in a clockwise direction (see Illustration 3). In the second step the filter insert can be pulled out towards the bottom. Clean the motor protection filter by tapping and gently brushing out.
  • Now replace the components.
• Attach the dust container again by locking it in position.

Every third time the dust container is emptied, or in the case of severe soiling, clean the filter by allowing water to flow through the filter fabric against the direction in which the vacuum cleaner blows. The dust container should only be reinserted when it is completely dry!

Now place this back in position once it has completely dried!

Caution: Never wash the filter in the washing machine, and please do not use a hairdryer to dry it.

2. Inlet filter

The inlet filter is to be found in the dust filter compartment - see the arrow. Press the button to release the dust container and then remove it. Pull the filter out towards the front. Clean the inlet filter approximately every tenth time the dust container is emptied, or more frequently if necessary. Please ensure that the filter is always clean, as otherwise air circulation cannot be guaranteed. If necessary, the filter can also be washed in warm water without any additives. Place it back into place only once it is completely dry!

3. Outlet filter

The appliance is also equipped with an outlet filter. In order to ensure that the filter works correctly, we recommend that you replace it every six months. It is located on the rear part of your appliance behind a ventilation grid. Open the ventilation grille by pressing the lever on its side. Then pull the grille out towards the front. Remove the filter and clean as described above. Fit the filter back into place and close the ventilation grid by following the steps above in the opposite order.

Important note!

Cleaning may become necessary after a shorter time, depending on the conditions of use, e.g. when vacuuming fine dust. If the suction power of your vacuum cleaner diminishes please clean the filters as described. If the suction power suddenly diminishes during operation this may be due to the filters being locked.

Cleaning and storage

Cleaning

• Pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning!
• Clean the casing with a dry cloth.
• Clean the motor protection filter approximately every 3. time the vacuum cleaner is emptied. Clean the filter in hot water without additives. Put it back into place only once it is completely dry.

Storage

• Let the iron cool down completely.
  • Wind the cable completely.
• Please position the device horizontally and insert the hook on the telescopic tube into the parking aid (7) on the back of the device.

Troubleshooting

• The Device Does Not Work.

Remedy: Check the connection to the mains. Check the position of the switch.

• The device does not suck up anything.

Possible Cause: The dust container or the filters are dirty.

Remedy: Empty or clean the components.

Possible Cause: There is a foreign body in the suction tube or the nozzle.

Remedy: Check the accessories for foreign bodies.
