Attaching the extending metal pipe to the grip:
push the upper end of the extending pipe into the grip on the goose-neck pipe
until it clicks and locks in place.
Changing the handle length:
push the lock on the extending metal pipe in the direction
of the arrow marked on it, then pull the internal telescopic
pipe to the length you require. Releasing the lock will fix
the internal pipe at the appropriate length. The spring on
the lock will hold the telescopic pipe in place.
Attaching accessories to the handle:
select the appropriate suction head for your cleaning task,
then attach it to the free end of the extending metal pipe.
Fix it in place by pushing the end of the metal pipe into the
connecting hole on the attachment until it clicks in place.
Make sure the power switch on the vacuum cleaner is in the OFF position.
Unwind the power cable fully - up to the yellow mark on the cable - and
then plug the cable into a mains socket. Do not unwind the cable to the
red mark; this is a safety measure to prevent the cable from being pulled
out of the cleaner.
Notes:
Do not rewind the power cable unless the vacuum cleaner is unplugged from the mains socket. To rewind
the cable, hold the cable with one hand and press the cable rewinder (12) with the other. Guide the cable
through the gap in the cover to avoid any damage. Do not rewind the cable without slowing the process
by hand; failing to do this can overload the rewinding mechanism, damage the cable or result in the plug
bumping into surrounding items with considerable force.
Using the vacuum cleaner
1. Switching on
Gently press the power switch (11) with your hand, not by foot. The motor will start and the low-power
suction will begin. Pressing the power switch again will stop the motor.
2. Suction power increase and decrease
These controls enable suction power to be adjusted between four levels: low, medium, high and turbo.
Use the ‚+’ control (10a) to increase suction power and the ‚-’ control (10b) to reduce the power. Each
power level is indicated by a series of lights, with the number of lights increasing as the suction power
increases. Suction power can also be adjusted by using the sliding control (3) on the grip. To reduce
suction, pull the control backwards with your finger. Suction returns to its full level when the switch is
in the forward position.
3. Using the double-function wide suction head
Always activate the integral brushes on the suction head when cleaning floor
areas with a hard surface (e.g. tile, parquet or plastic flooring). These are
extended by pressing the ‚switch’ on top of the suction head with your hand.
Do not use the suction head on hard surfaces without extending the brushes;
polished flooring can be damaged by the attachment, while stone tiles can
cause wear to the suction head.
When cleaning carpets, ensure the brushes are retracted inside the suction head. Cleaning carpets with the
brushes extended can cause damage if the brush becomes entangled with fluff or with strands of carpet.
Warning! This vacuum cleaner is NOT designed for cleaning away liquids. Only use
a dedicated ‚wet/dry’ cleaner for removing liquids. It is also important not to over-fill
the water tank. Regularly monitor the amount of dust and water in the tank to avoid
exceeding the ‚Max Dirt Level’ marking. If necessary, unplug the appliance and rinse the
tank several times. Refill it according to the instructions before continuing your work.
Notes:
• Take care to avoid lightweight or fragile items and pieces of furniture. Bumping into the corners or legs of
furniture could break the appliance or its cleaning attachments - and could also permanently damage the
furniture.
• The manufacturer is not liable for damage to fixtures or furnishings caused by incorrect use of
the vacuum cleaner. The warranty does not cover breaks, cracks or other damage to the appliance
(including its attachments and its accessories) resulting from impact or other external events.
4. Using the narrow suction head with brush
This suction head is designed for cleaning between furniture in places where a wider attachment won’t fit.
5. Using the crevice suction head
The crevice tool can be used in two ways. If the brush is turned onto the end
of the attachment, it’s possible to clean edges, corners and narrow gaps (e.g.
drawers, vents and under/behind furniture).
