• The nozzles are to be used as follows:
Floor nozzle Floors (brushes out)
Carpets (brushes in)
Combination nozzle Radiators, corners,
skirtings, etc.
Combination nozzle Furniture, curtains,
extended (19a) drapes, books, frames,
etc.
• The floor nozzle has two settings. When
cleaning hard surfaces (parquet flooring,
flooring tiles, etc.), the nozzle brushes should
be extended. When cleaning carpets and
rugs, the brushes should be retracted into
the nozzle. Press the brush change button
(1a) to switch between the two settings.
• If, during vacuuming, you need to pause to
move furniture etc., you can place the floor
nozzle in the parking holder (14) using the
fixture on the back of the nozzle.
FILTERS
This vacuum cleaner is not equipped with a dust
bag. The dust/dirt is sucked up into the
transparent dust container (8) instead. Once the
dust is in this container, it whirls around so that it
does not block suction. The air sucked in is
cleaned by means of a washable permanent filter
in the dust container, a motor protection filter and
an exhaust filter.
Important!
You must never vacuum without all three filters or
when a filter is damaged. If you do, dust may
penetrate into the interior of the vacuum cleaner
and damage the motor.
Emptying the dust container and cleaning the
permanent filter
It is easy to see when the transparent dust
container needs emptying.
1. Turn off the vacuum cleaner, and remove the
plug from the wall socket.
2. Check whether the dust container is full,
using the window (18).
3. Remove the dust container from the vacuum
cleaner by pressing the release button (9)
and lifting the handle on the dust container
(see image on the right).
1. Take the dust container to a dustbin.
2. Turn the upper section of the dust container
anticlockwise, so the downward-pointing
arrow on the far left of the upper section lines
up with the arrow on the lower section.
3. Lift the upper section off the lower section,
and empty the container.
4. Turn the permanent filter clockwise, remove
it from the upper section and tap it gently.
(We recommend that you do this while
holding the filter in a bag).
