USE
•Pull the cord out of the vacuum cleaner. The cord may not be pulled out further than the red mark. Plug in and switch the current on.
•Press the on/off button (13) to start and stop the vacuum cleaner.
•While in use, the suction force can be regulated by opening and closing the air valve (2) on the handle (1). It can also be adjusted electronically using the suction force regulation button (14).
•The nozzles are to be used as follows:
Floor nozzle (18) | Floors, carpets and |
| rugs |
Extra nozzle for |
|
hard floors (20) | Hard floors |
Furniture nozzle (21) | Furniture, curtains, |
| drapes, etc. |
Joint nozzle (22) | Radiators, corners, |
| skirtings, etc. |
Brush nozzle (23) | Shelves, books, |
| lampshades, etc. |
•The floor nozzle (18) has two settings. When cleaning hard surfaces (parquet flooring, flooring tiles, etc.), the nozzle brushes should be extended. When cleaning carpets and mats, the brushes should be retracted into the nozzle. Press the brush change button (19) to switch between the two settings. The brushes under the extra nozzle for hard floors (20) cannot be retracted.
•If the bag change indicator (16) is red when using the vacuum cleaner, or if the suction force is significantly reduced, the dust bag must be changed. If the indicator is still red after the bag has been replaced, it may be due to one of the following reasons:
•The hose or nozzle is blocked/clogged.
•The motor filter or air filter is dirty.
•Investigate what is causing the
indicator to show red and deal with the problem. The vacuum cleaner must not be used if the indicator is red. This may cause irreparable motor failure.
CHANGING THE DUST BAG
•If the vacuum’s suction force is reduced, this may be because the bag needs changing. Raise the floor nozzle off the floor, set the suction force regulation (14) to MAX, switch on the vacuum cleaner using the on/off button (13), and keep an eye on the bag change indicator (16). If it is red, the bag must be changed.
•Remove the hose. Pull the handle for opening the dust bag container (10), and open the vacuum cleaner.
•Grasp the millboard at the top of the dust bag and carefully remove the bag from the vacuum cleaner.
•Throw the bag in the bin. Make sure that there are no holes in it. Do not fold it.
•Insert a new dust bag in the vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner must never be used without a dust bag.
•Close the vacuum cleaner again.
•Always replace the bag after sweeping up large quantities of (very) fine material such as fine sand, cement, flour, etc.
CLEANING THE MOTOR FILTER
•The motor filter can be found in the dust bag container. It protects the motor from dust and should be cleaned at least twice a year, when it is dirty, or if suction force is reduced.
•Pull the filter holder up out of the vacuum cleaner.
•Open the filter holder, and remove the filter. Rinse the filter in tepid water, and allow it to dry completely. Do not use a hair dryer or similar to dry the filter.
