Settings 1 Loosen the star knob for height adjust- ment of the steering wheel. 2 Set the steering wheel to the desired height. 3 Tighten the star-knob. ● Adjust the dosage of the cleaning solu- tion according to the contamination and type of floor covering. ● Set the twist grip for the brush contact pressure to the desired value. Only set the brush contact pressure when the cleaning head is raised. Note If the device pulls forwards too much during operation, reduce the contact pressure. ● Move the Eco mode switch to the de- sired position. Normal operation: The device operates at maximum brush speed and maximum suction performance. Eco: The device works with reduced brush speed and suction performance. This also reduces energy consumption. The possible working time increases with one charging cycle.
