USING YOUR APPLIANCE / CLEANING AND
CARE / CARING FOR YOU VACUUM CLEANER
/ EMPTYING THE DUST COLLECTOR
USING YOUR APPLIANCE
• Before using the vacuum cleaner, make sure that
the dust collector and the filter insert located
inside the dust collector are correctly in place.
• Also make sure that the motor protection filter
and the motor outlet filter are correctly in place.
• Missing or incorrectly installed filters can
damage the motor of your vacuum cleaner.
• Next, correctly replace the dust collector cover
and lock into position.
• Place the vacuum cleaner in a horizontal
position.
• Pull out the power cable as far as you need.
The yellow marker on the power cable shows
the recommended cable length. Do not pull the
power cable out past the red marker.
• Put the plug into a plug socket.
• Do not pull on the power cable! To avoid pulling
on the power cable when using the vacuum
cleaner, turn the appliance off briefly, and plug
it in to a nearer plug socket.
• The power control (on/off switch) allows the
device to be switched on and off.
• The power/suction control allows the variable
adjustment of the power, e.g. suction power of
the device.
• Turn the vacuum on and off using the power
button.
• When vacuuming, especially when using the
vacuum cleaner on soft materials (e.g. textiles),
always begin on a low suction setting, and
increase suction slowly as needed.
• When using your vacuum cleaner for the
first time, you may see some smoke and the
appliance may emit a smell. This is normal, and
will disappear with further use of the vacuum
cleaner.
• When using the appliance on flat surfaces, it
is possible to roll the vacuum cleaner along
behind you carefully by pulling on the suction
hose. When lifting or carrying the vacuum
cleaner, only use the handle.
• When you have finished using the vacuum
cleaner, turn it off and unplug it.
• Press the cable rewind button to retract the
power cable. The power cable and plug will
retract very quickly. Make sure that the plug
does not hit any body parts, anybody around
you, or any objects. Before retracting the cable,
move the plug close to where the cable joins the
vacuum cleaner, and hold on to it tightly.
• Store the vacuum cleaner safely in a dry place.
CLEANING AND CARE
Caution:
Before cleaning the device, remove and clean the
dust container and filter, remove the stretch hose
switch off the unit and unplug from the mains!
CARING FOR YOU VACUUM CLEANER
• If you need to wash the casing of your vacuum
cleaner, you can use a slightly damp cloth. If
the appliance is very dirty, you can use a mild
detergent.
• Do not use any abrasive substances, abrasive
sponges or strong detergents, as these can
damage the surface of the appliance.
• Never use any solvents, petrol or oil-based
cleaning agents, as these can damage the
casing.
• In order to ensure the safe working of your
vacuum cleaner, the filters must be regularly
cleaned / replaced.
Important:
Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the dust
collector or filters installed.
EMPTYING THE DUST COLLECTOR
When the level of dust in the dust collector has
reached the edge of the filter insert, the dust
collector must be emptied and cleaned. To maintain
optimum suction power, it is better to empty and
clean the dust collector regularly, before it reaches
this level.
