Getting the best results
(see page 5)
Carpets: Use the floor nozzle with
the lever in horizontal position.
Hard floors: Use the floor nozzle
with the lever in vertical position.
Loose rugs/curtains/lightweight fabrics:
Reduce the suction power. Use the floor
nozzle for loose rugs and the upholstery
nozzle for curtains, cushions etc.
Confined areas: Use the crevice nozzle
for crevices, corners and radiators.
Dustbag indicator and
changing the dustbag
(see page 5)
For peak performance the dustbag
must be changed when full. If the
dustbag should accidentally get
broken in the cleaner, take cleaner to
an AEG-Electrolux Service Centre for
cleaning. Check the dustbag regu-
larly and replace when necessary. The
dustbag indicator window will grad-
ually turn red when filling and
completely red when full.
To check the dustbag, the cleaner
must be switched on, with all attach-
ments connected and off the floor.
The dustbag full indicator may
signify that the bag is blocked
(occasionally caused by very fine
dust) which will cause loss of suction
and may result in overheating. If this
occurs change the dustbag even if it
is not full.
To change the dustbag
Release catch and swing back lid
before removing the dustbag.
Remove the dustbag.
Insert new dustbag by fitting the
bag slots over holders.
We recommend the dustbag is changed
after using a carpet cleaning powder
if there is a bad smell from the
cleaner, then you should also
change the filter
Note: Use only AEG original dustbags
and filters (ref GR51).
Dustbag safety device:
To avoid damaging the cleaner do
not use it without a dustbag. A
safety device is fitted which pre-
vents the cover closing without a
dustbag. Do not attempt to force
cover shut.
Changing the filters
(see page 5)
There are two filters inside your
cleaner. Never use the cleaner
without the filters in place.
To clean Motor Protection filter
The Motor Protection filter should
be cleaned when dirty.
Pull dustbag upward and remove
the motor protection filter.
Rinse the filter under tap water and
dry it completely.
Put the filter back into the cleaner
and close the cover.
To change Micro filter
The Micro filter should be changed
with every fifth dustbag.
Open the filter grill and remove the
exhaust filter.
Rinse the filter under tap water and
dry it completely.
Put the filter back into the cleaner
and close the filter grill.
