Caution!
Floor tools are subject to a certain amount of wear,
depending on the type of hard floors you have
(e.g. rough, rustic tiles). Therefore, you must check
the underside of the floor tool at regular intervals.
Worn undersides of floor tools may have sharp edges
that can damage sensitive hard floors, such as parquet
or linoleum. The manufacturer does not accept any
responsibility for damage caused by worn floor tools.
Turbo brush
If your vacuum cleaner is equipped with a turbo brush,
please consult the accompanying instruction manual for
notes on its use and maintenance.
