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, cush-
ions etc.
Confined areas: Use the crevice noz-
zle for crevices, corners and radiators.
Hard floor / parquetry: use the hard
floor nozzle to avoid scratching
(7460, 7480, 7481, 7485, 7486,
1800 TRIO).
For the perfect care of your carpets:
use the turbo nozzle. The rotary
motion of its brush gently loosens
short-pile carpets where the dirt has
been trodden in. It removes stubborn
fluff and pet hairs (7480, 7481,
7485, 7486, 1800 TRIO).
Removing the contents
of the dust container
(see page 5)
Never operate the cleaner without
the dust container installed.
The dust container must be emptied
if the window of the dust container
indicator changes its colour into red
when the cleaner is operating at
maximum power and the nozzle is
raised from the floor.
Remove the dust container from
the cleaner by pushing the opening
button on both sides.
Remove the contents of the dust
container by pushing the orange-
coloured opening button.
Close the dust container lid until it
clicks.
Put the dust container back into the
cleaner.
Cleaning the filters
(see page 5)
Filters should be replaced at least
twice a year or when they become
visibly soiled.
Always operate the cleaner with
filters installed to avoid reduced
suction and the damage of the
motor.
Always operate the cleaner with
the cartridge filter installed.
Disconnect from electrical outlet
before changing the filters.
Cleaning the cartridge filter:
Remove the dust container from
the cleaner by pushing the open-
ing button on both sides.
Rotate the dust container cover
counter-clockwise (A) and pull it
out from the dust container (B).
