FOR YOUR SAFETY

Do not touch any rotating parts before you turn off and unplug the vacuum cleaner.

Do not use the appliance on wet surfaces.

Do not immerse the appliance in water.

ELECTRO-BRUSH MALFUNCTION

The electro-brush does not function properly or makes an unusual sound

Either the rotating brush or the axis is blocked: turn off the appliance and clean them.

The brush is worn out: visit an authorized Service Center in order to have the brush changed.

The belt is worn out: if the belt makes noise, it means that it is slipping because it’s worn out. Visit an authorized Service Center in order to have the belt changed.

The electro-brush stops while you are vacuuming

The thermal security feature has been activated: Turn off the vacuum cleaner by moving the Stop/Start button to the Stop position (2.a) and unplug it. Check to see if any solid object is blocking the rotation of the brush. If this is the case, remove the object and clean the electro-brush (fig.10), then you may keep using the vacuum cleaner.

The electro-brush moves with difficulty

If you find that your vacuum cleaner slides with difficulty along surfaces, progressively reduce the speed until you reach the « Min » position (2.b). If the problem persists, take your appliance to the authorized Tefal Service Center nearest to your home.

See the list of authorized Tefal Service Centers or contact the Tefal Consummer Service department.

4. Storage

After use, turn off your vacuum cleaner by moving the Stop/Start button to the Stop position (2a). Now you may store your appliance vertically wherever you like, thanks to the parking position.

To place the vacuum cleaner in the parking position: Place the neck vertically in order to block the appliance.

To continue using the vacuum cleaner: Take it by the handle and make it swing backwards in order to unblock it and leave the parking position.
