Warnings for the Use of the Appliance

CAUTION:

• Do not vacuum anything flammable or liquid!
• Never vacuum without the filter unit and without the filters.
• When vacuuming smooth floors such as laminate, parquet, etc. with the floor nozzle (11), be sure to use it with the brushes extended to avoid damaging the floor.

Notes for Use

• Dirty filters reduce the suction power of the appliance, therefore we recommend cleaning the dust container and the filters after each use.
• You can attach the nozzle attachments directly to the connection on the appliance or to the suction tube that is already mounted.
• To detach the nozzle attachments, pull them off with a slight twist.

Floor Nozzle

You can clean smooth surfaces and carpets with the floor nozzle. It is equipped with rollers to make it easier to guide.

- With the lever, you can move the brushes outwards or inwards.

The optimal use depends on the condition of the floor. We recommend the following use:

• Use without brushes:
  For vacuuming carpeted floors.
• Use with brushes:
  For vacuuming smooth floors.

Hard Floor Brush

For gentle cleaning of hard floors such as parquet, laminate, tiles, etc.

Combined Crevice Nozzle and Brush Nozzle

When folded, you can use this as a crevice nozzle. If you want to use the brush nozzle, pull the brush part in the direction of the arrow until it engages mechanically.

• Crevice Nozzle:
  Use this to vacuum dirt from corners, joints and small gaps.
• Brush Nozzle:

Gently removes dirt from slits in upholstery and mattresses. Also suitable for picking up dust on sensitive surfaces such as furniture or curtains.

Telescopic Suction Tube

You can adjust the length of the telescopic suction tube individually:

1. Attach the telescopic suction tube to the connection on the appliance by turning it slightly.
2. Release the lock by pushing and holding the slider (12) in the direction of the arrow.
3. Pull one tube out of the other to the desired length.
4. Release the button to lock the connection.
5. Fit the floor nozzle or accessories.

Electrical Connection

• Before inserting the mains plug into the socket, check that the mains voltage is correct. You will find the details of the appliance on the type plate.
• Only connect the appliance to an approved socket.

Switching the Appliance On/Off

• The appliance is switched off when the switch is in the O position.
• Set the switch to position I to switch on the appliance.

Mounting the Wall Bracket

CAUTION:

Make sure beforehand that there are no hidden cables in the wall that could damage you!

1. Measure the height for the wall bracket. Hold the appliance against the wall when it is mounted with the telescopic suction tube and floor nozzle.
2. Hold the wall bracket against the wall so that the opening points upwards. Mark 3 holes.
3. Drill the holes and place the plugs in the wall.
4. Insert the screws through the holes in the wall bracket. Screw the screws into the plugs.
5. Hand-tighten the screws with a suitable screwdriver.

Operation

1. Unwind the mains cable completely.
2. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed protective contact socket.
3. Switch the appliance on with the on / off switch.
4. Tilt the lever to "brushes extended" or "brushes retracted" depending on the floor covering.
5. Now vacuum with even speed. It is not necessary to press down.
6. Be aware of the limited range due to the length of the cable!

End Operation

1. Switch off the appliance. Then pull the mains plug out of the socket.
2. Let the appliance cool down completely.
3. If you have previously mounted the wall bracket, hang the appliance in it.
4. Loosely roll up the mains cable. You can use the hook-and-loop tape on the mains cable to secure the cable.

Maintenance

Pull the mains plug out of the socket before cleaning or maintaining the appliance.

Emptying the Dust Container

1. Pull the mains plug out of the socket.
2. If necessary, detach the suction tube or nozzle attachment from the appliance.
3. Hold the appliance with the base plate of the dust container over a dustbin.
4. Empty the contents of the dust container. To do this, press the button (8) to open the base plate.
5. Close the base plate again. The lock on the dust container must engage.

The Filter System

Your appliance has 3 filters. The conventional dust bag system has been replaced by a transparent dust container. In it, coarse dirt and the smallest suspended particles are whirled out of the "suction air" by the high flow speed.

There is no need to buy dust bags.

The filters must be cleaned regularly.

CAUTION:

• Never wash the filters in the washing machine.
  • Do not use a hair dryer to dry them.
• Only put the appliance back into operation when all filters are completely dry and correctly fitted.

The Filter Unit

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with three views (top, middle, bottom), showing internal structure without any text or symbols.

The filter unit is composed of:

- HEPA filter

- Coarse filter

To clean the filter unit, proceed as follows:

1. Empty the dust container as previously described.
2. Dismantling the filter unit

2.1 Turn the coarse filter counter-clockwise from the guide rails. Pull the coarse filter from the dust collector.

2.2 Turn the HEPA filter counter-clockwise from the guide rails. Pull the HEPA filter from the dust collector.

1. You can brush out the HEPA filter. For heavier soiling, clean the filters under running water.

2. Let the filters air dry completely before reinserting them!

3. You can wipe out the dust container with a damp cloth. Dry it afterwards.

- Discolouration / matting of the dust container due to use is normal and does not constitute a defect.

6. Assembly of the filter unit

Refer to the adjacent figure.

6.1 Set the HEPA filter with its 3 guides to the inner circle. Tighten the filter clockwise.
6.2 Set the coarse filter over the HEPA filter with its 3 guides in the outer circle. Tighten the coarse filter clockwise.

- If the filters are not inserted, dirt will get into the motor. This can damage the motor.

6.1 6.2

1. Close the bottom plate.

Outlet Filter

Your appliance also has an outlet filter. The filter cover is located on the back of the appliance.

1. Unscrew the cover (2) anti-clockwise.
2. Remove the filter fleece and wash it out.
3. Allow the filter fleece to dry completely in the air before reinserting it into the appliance.
4. Replace the cover over the filter.
5. Close the outlet filter with the cover.

Cleaning

WARNING:

• Pull the mains plug out of the socket before cleaning or maintaining the appliance.
• Never immerse the appliance in water to clean it. It could cause an electric shock or fire.

CAUTION:

• Do not use a wire brush or other abrasive objects.
• Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.

- Clean the housing with a soft, dry cloth without any additives.
