Detach the handle from the appliance, sepa­
rate the handlegrip from the handle tube by
pressing on the knob and pulling, and insert it
in the appliance in place of the handle.
The handlegrip of the handle tube and the
handle on the appliance enable the appliance

Switching on and off (fig. 6)
Switch your vacuum cleaner on or off with the
on/off button (A).
If you have connected other electrical
appliances with high connected load on the
same circuit and switch them on simulta­
neously with your vacuum cleaner, the fuse
may cut out. On the VAMPYRETTE, this can be
avoided by setting the slide control to MIN
before switching on and then controlling the
setting to a higher level after switching on.
