Assembling The Appliance

Fix the two plastic tubes together by inserting one into the other.

To attach the flexible hose to the vacuum cleaner, push the end of the pivoting head on the flexible hose into the attachment point on the vacuum cleaner. Make sure that the plug is correctly inserted into the socket. To remove the flexible hose from the vacuum cleaner, press on the two buttons situated on the either side of the pivoting head then pull upwards to remove it from the attachment point.

Any of the accessories could be fitted onto the end of the tubes. The floor accessory has two positions:

Hard Floor (tiles, parquet floors, etc.) position - The cleaning tool's brush must be in the lower position. Press on the rocker switch to lower it.

Carpet or rug position - The cleaning tool's brush should be raised. Press the rocker switch to lift the brush up. Only the flat part of the tool is in contact with the floor.

Pull the mains lead out to the desired length and plug it into a standard domestic outlet. To retract press the cord button again. Press the foot pedal to start the vacuum cleaner. To stop it press the pedal again.

Using the Accessories

There are two accessories provided in addition to the floor brush. (i) Crevic nozzle (ii) Cornerbrush.

These accessories could be fitted on to the tubes or directly onto the end of the flexible hose handle. The small cleaning tool is used for upholstered furniture. The crevice nozzle is used for radiators, skirting boards, hard to reach corners, etc. The brush which fits onto the small cleaning tool is used for lampshades or polished surfaces.

If you wish to pause briefly during vacuuming ie. to move a small piece of furniture or a rug, use the special parking position on your vacuum cleaner. Slide the hook attached to the large cleaning tool into the slot on the rear of the appliance.

When you have finished vacuuming, press pedal to stop the appliance then unplug it at the mains and press your foot on the pedal to automatically rewind the cord.

You can move or store your appliance in a vertical position by sliding the hook on the large cleaning tool into the clip on the underside of the appliance. This practical system allows you to carry the vacuum cleaner around in one hand and to store it in the minimum of space.

Your product is fitted with a motor safety device, which protects the motor from overloading. When the unit is overloaded, the thermal-cut-off will trip the connection to the motor, thus preventing the unit from further operation. If this does happen, unplug the unit from main and let the unit cool down for 20-25 minutes. The thermal-cut-off will reset and the unit will be operational once again.
