ENGLISH
DÉGAGEMENT DES OBSTRUCTIONS
L’aspirateur crée une succion qui ramasse la saleté. L’air
qui se déplace rapidement transporte la saleté jusqu’au
sac à poussière à travers les passages d’écoulement
d’air. Le sac à poussière laisse l’air passer à travers,
tout en captant la saleté.
Pour obtenir de meilleurs résultats de nettoyage,
garder le passage d’écoulement d’air libre. Véri-
fier à l’occasion les endroits marqués d’un as-
térisque pour y relever d’éventuelles obs-
tructions. Débrancher l’appareil avant de
verifier la circulation d’air.
