How to Use

Pull the power cable out of the vacuum, ensuring that you stop when you see the yellow mark.

Make sure that the red mark is not visible; if it is, this means you have pulled the cable out too far.

When you finish vacuuming, turn off the power and unplug from the mains socket. Push down the rewind handle/ button to wind the cable back into the machine.

Use your other hand to guide the cable to ensure it doesn't whip back and cause injury.

Using the Attachments

2-in-1 Tool

This nozzle attachment is used for reaching all the difficult places that the larger brush cannot.

The flat end is a crevice tool which is perfect for reaching small crevices and hard-to-reach areas such as corners or down the back of furniture.

The brush end is perfect for cleaning upholstery, curtains and delicate areas such as bookshelves, keyboards and window ledges.

Please note:

• The VC7020 vacuum has two HEPA filters; one on the underside of the dust container jug, the other on the base of the vacuum. If the vacuum is used lightly/less often, these filters should be cleaned properly at least twice a year. If, however, the vacuum is in frequent/heavy use, we recommend the filters are cleaned monthly.
• If a filter becomes too dirty or clogged it can reduce the suction level of the vacuum.
• Do not ever put a wet filter back into the vacuum; always ensure the filters are completely dry before inserting them back into the vacuum. Putting a wet filter into the vacuum will result in suction loss and can damage the motor.
• Do not wash the filters in a washing machine or put them in a tumble dryer. They are to be washed by hand and air dried only.
• Do not use hot water or detergents of any kind. Wash only in water.
  • Always ensure that the filters are fixed back into place properly before using the vacuum. Do not use the vacuum without any filters inside.

Replacement filters are available for purchase separately directly from Duronic.
