Adjusting the suction
(models with suction power selector)
The suction power can be regulated to
suit the type of flooring.
Reducing the suction power will allow
the floor tool to slide across the floor
more smoothly.
Select the middle suction setting
(symbol
d) for smooth and hard floors
and a higher setting for carpets.
Rotary selector
(depending on model)
^ Turn the suction power selector to the
appropriate setting.
Opening the air inlet valve
The air inlet valve can be opened for a
quick reduction of suction, e.g. when
moving from a carpet to an area rug.
^ Slide open the air inlet valve just
enough for the floor brush to move
easily.
By opening the air inlet valve the
strength of the nozzle used is reduced.
