for heavily soiled, short-pile carpets and hard floors.
The required suction power can be selected by adjusting
the suction regulator (see Figure 9).

Low suction range:
For vacuuming delicate fabrics, e.g. curtains.
䡲
Middle suction range:
For daily vacuuming of lightly soiled floors.

High suction range:
For vacuuming durable floor coverings, hard floors and
for heavily soiled surfaces.

Replacing the dust bag

If suction diminishes considerably, the dust bag must be
replaced, even if it is not yet full. In this case it is
essential to change the dust bag due to the type of
material it contains.

when the dust bag, textile filter or dust collector are
inserted.

After cleaning, slide the motor protection filter into the
vacuum cleaner and close the dust bag compartment lid.
Care
Always switch off the vacuum cleaner and disconnect the
power cord from the mains before cleaning the appliance.

dusting brush.
