USE
• Pull the cord (4) out of the appliance. The cord must not be pulled out any
further than the red mark. Plug in and switch on the power.
• Press the on/off button (1) to start and stop the appliance.
• Press the lock button (16) on the tube and push or pull the tube to the required
length.
• Suction strength can be regulated by opening and closing the air vent (23) on
the handle.
o When the vent closes full suction is achieved. This is the normal setting.
o When the vent opens, more air is allowed in, reducing suction power at the
oor nozzle. This function is for cleaning curtains and other light items which
can get sucked into the nozzle.
• The oor nozzle brushes (11) have two settings, which can be selected using the
brush switch (12).
o When cleaning hard surfaces (stone or wooden ooring, tiles, lino etc.), the
nozzle brushes should be extended.
o When cleaning carpets and rugs, the brushes should be retracted into the
nozzle.
• IMPORTANT! If the suction strength of the appliance is reduced, the nozzle,
hose or dust container suction may be blocked, or lters may be blocked or
dirty. Never use the appliance if this is the case, as this will damage the motor
irreparably. Remove the cause of the blockage or clean the lters.
• IMPORTANT! The appliance is provided with thermostatically controlled
overheat protection that automatically shuts off the motor in case of blockage.
If this happens, turn off the appliance and unplug it. After 30 minutes, the
appliance will have cooled off and will be ready to use when you have removed
the blockage.
Tips
• There is a nozzle holder (22) on the telescopic
tube for storage of the brush nozzle (13) and
crevice nozzle (14) when these are not in use
(see photo).
• Each nozzle has a special purpose. Experiment
in order to discover which nozzle functions
best in different situations. The brush nozzle
is suited to vacuuming corners and crevices
because it rotates.
• If you want to take a break while vacuuming, you can insert the parking bracket
on the back of the oor nozzle (17) or on the tube (17) in the parking holder at
the back of the appliance (2).
• You can lift and carry the appliance using the carrying handle (6). Never pull or
lift the appliance by the cord.
Changing lters and emptying the dust container
This appliance is not equipped with a dust bag. The dust/dirt is sucked up into
the transparent dust holder instead. Once the dust is in this container, it whirls
around so that it does not block suction. The air sucked in is cleaned by means of
a washable permanent lter in the dust container, a motor protection lter and an
exhaust lter.
We recommend that you clean the lters at least twice a year or as required. We
recommend replacing the lters after 6 to 12 months’ use, when they are soiled, or if
the appliance’s suction strength is reduced.
IMPORTANT! The appliance must not be used if the lters and the dust container
are not in place.
IMPORTANT! Turn off the appliance and unplug it before changing the lters or
emptying the dust container.
Replacing the Exhaust Filter
• Remove the exhaust lter cover (a) by grasping the
handle and ipping it up rmly.
• Remove the lter from the exhaust port and change
it or clean as described in the section on cleaning
below.

• Fit the cover over the exhaust lter so that the small
pins on the cover engage the upper edge of the
exhaust port. Press the cover into place. You will hear
a ’click’ when it locks.
Replacing the Motor Filter
• Remove the dust container by pressing the lock
button on the handle and removing the container.
• Press the lock button on the motor lter cover ( c) up

element (e) from the appliance.
• Remove the lter (d) from the lter holder and replace
or clean the lter as described in Cleaning below.
• Replace the lter in the lter holder.
• Replace the lter element in the port.
• Fit the motor lter cover by pushing the upper edge
under the groove and pressing it in until the lock pins
click into place.
• Replace the dust holder in the appliance.
o Turn the dust container so that the lock button on
the handle faces the appliance.

detergent can be added if the appliance is heavily soiled.
• Do not use scouring pads or any form of strong solvents or abrasive cleaning
agents as they could damage the outside of the appliance.
• The dust container and the permanent lter can be washed with ordinary soapy
water. Ensure all parts are completely dry before replacing them and using the
apparatus again.
• Always keep both lters clean (refer to Replacing lters and emptying the dust
container above).
o Shake and beat the lters carefully to remove dust and dirt.
o The lter and the lter element for the motor lter can be washed carefully in
warm water with a little soap if necessary.
o Check it is completely dry before replacing in the appliance. NEVER replace
