Brushes up. Brosses relevées.

Motorized nozzle gives the best dust pick-up and deep cleaning of carpets through the rotating brush roller agitating the carpet. Do not leave the motorized nozzle stationary with brush roller on.

Attention: on fur rugs, rugs with long fringes or deep pile exceeding 15 mm the motorized nozzle should have the brush roller off. Press BRUSH button to turn the brush roller off.

Laissez l’appareil refroidir pendant 30 minutes avant de le brancher à nouveau. Si l’appareil ne fonctionne toujours pas, contactez un Centre Service Agréé Electrolux.

Clearing the hose Clear the hose by “squeezing“ it. However, be careful in case the obstruction has been caused by glass or needles caught inside the hose. Note: The warranty does not cover any damage to the hose caused by cleaning it. Water has been sucked into the vacuum cleaner It will be necessary to replace the motor at an authorized Electrolux service centre. Damage to the motor caused by the penetration of water is not covered by the warranty. For any further problems, contact an authorized Electrolux service centre.

Recycle the materials with the symbol . Put the packaging in applicable containers to recycle it. Help protect the environment and human health and to recycle waste of electrical and electronic appliances. Do not dispose appliances marked with the symbol with the household waste. Return the product to your local recycling facility or contact your municipal office.

X U L O R T C E THE EL T S E U Q N E E GR Electrolux aims to raise awareness about the benefits of a green home. By selecting a product from the Electrolux Green range you join the quest for setting new, modern standards – for your home and our world. What makes Electrolux Green vacuum cleaners green? First of all, they are partially made from recycled plastic. What others see as waste, we see as valuable raw material. This approach saves resources, and puts plastic waste to good use again instead of having it end up in landfills. In our work, we scrutinise the proposed solutions of the day to evaluate where we should focus our efforts and energy. One of the sectors with the greatest potential for change is source reduction at the production level – simply put, using less new plastic. Electrolux strives to create and support source reduction, in part by using recycled plastic. When designing our vacuum cleaners we think about their entire lifecycle. So the packaging too is made from material that is recycled, and when the day comes to replace the vacuum cleaner, 92% of its materials are recyclable. We’re also reducing the use of PVC plastic as much as possible – one of our models is already completely PVC-free.

SOME OF OUR BEST VACUUM CLEANERS ARE ACTUALLY GARBAGE Plastic is of course a material with many advantages. It is used in an enormous range of products, from paper clips to spaceships, due to its relatively low cost, ease of manufacture and versatility. But when plastic ends up in the wrong place it becomes an environmental hazard. Plastic is durable and degrades very slowly. The best way to stop adding to this problem is to use less plastic and recycle as much we can.

UltraOne_EN-GR_130227.indd 89

RECYCLE THE PLASTIC YOU DIDN’T KNOW YOU COULD RECYCLE Making Electrolux Green vacuum cleaners from recycled plastic is a win-win situation. We get the raw material for our products while at the same time reducing the need for crude oil, and the world gets rid of some plastic garbage. You can win too – the type of plastic we need is the type that’s in old garden chairs, computers, big plastic toys, and machines like hairdryers, electric kettles and coffee machines. So we are interested in any of these things that you don’t use anymore. Get rid of them and give them a new life as vacuum cleaners by handing them in to your nearest recycling station.

Green fact: Every Electrolux Green vacuum cleaner saves about 2 litres of crude oil and 80 litres of water during the manufacturing process. 90% less energy is needed to produce the parts compared to making them from virgin plastic.

RADICALLY REDUCED ENERGY CONSUMPTION The lifecycle studies we’ve done show that a third of the environmental impact of a vacuum cleaner comes from the handling and manufacturing of the materials in it. Less than 3 percent is attributed to transportation. The rest is due to the energy that the vacuum cleaner consumes when in use. That’s why we’re constantly working to reduce the energy consumption of our vacuum cleaners. This is most evident when it comes to the Electrolux Green vacuum cleaners. Depending on the model, they can save up to 50% energy compared to an average 2,000 W vacuum cleaner – and get the job done at least as well.

GET A CLEANER HOME, AND GREENER WORLD Isn’t it nice to know that when you take the vacuum cleaner out of the closet you can be assured of an excellent result. Electrolux Green vacuum cleaners offer supreme performance. They are efficient, quiet, easy to handle and store – in short, everything you expect from the best of vacuum cleaners. And they are environmentally responsible. Our approach to making green vacuum cleaners is simple: you shouldn’t have to compromise on cleaning performance.

UltraOne_EN-GR_130227.indd 90

EVEN THE BAG IS GREEN If you have a model using bags, on most markets you can act green even when buying the bag. The s-bag® Green ensures an even level of high performance by the vacuum cleaner, while the environmental impact is radically reduced. The bag is made from corn and uses up to 65% less petroleum and contributes 68% less greenhouse gases to the atmosphere than traditional plastic materials.

Green fact: Some of our Green range models uses 50% less energy than an average 2,000 W vacuum cleaner. If you were to vacuum an hour a week for ten years, you would save enough energy to burn a 60 W lamp day and night for 234 days. To put it another way, you would reduce CO2 emissions by 294 kg.

YOU CAN DO MORE: Want a cleaner world? Start at home. To make a better world, what counts are all the “small” green steps we all can make in our everyday lives. Besides choosing a green vacuum cleaner, there are lots of things you can do to make your home greener. Here are some of the ways that can help make your life and your home a little more environmentally responsible.

• Water-saving taps work very well. You can also save water by not letting it run unnecessarily. • Choose eco-labelled laundry detergents and dishwasher

detergents. This helps reduce chemicals that are harmful to nature. Don’t throw chemicals into the toilet or the garbage bin – find out where to deposit them safely.

• Most of the time you don’t need to use appliances at the

maximum setting – a vacuum cleaner, for example, doesn’t necessarily clean better on certain surfaces when set to max compared to a medium setting.

• Switching off the TV and other appliances rather than leaving them in stand-by mode saves surprisingly much energy over time.

• If you live in a cold climate, reducing the indoor temperature by just 1 or 2°C drastically reduces energy consumption.

• Change to low-energy lamps, and don’t leave lights on when they’re not needed.

• Find out how the recycling systems work in your area.

Find a good solution with separate bins for different kinds of waste that’s easy to use and fits into your everyday life. Recycling saves energy and valuable resources.

OF COURSE WE ARE ALSO GREENWASHING – SWITCH UP TO OUR GREEN APPLIANCES True to our philosophy of making everyday appliances a little greener, it’s not only our vacuum cleaners that come in green versions. We also offer kitchen and laundry appliances that go a long way towards a greener world. In fact, studies show that if everyone in Europe would switch their 10-year-old household appliances to modern energy-saving models, the annual emissions of CO2 would be reduced by 22 million tons. That’s why we offer washing machines and dryers with settings that save energy and water. And the biggest energysaving effect is to replace old refrigerators and freezers with new ones, since these appliances run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
