Adjusting the suction power
The suction power can be regulated to
suit the type of flooring being cleaned.
Reducing the suction power reduces
the amount of effort required to
manoeuvre the floorhead.
Some models also have symbols on the
controls. The symbols indicate the type
of use the settings are suitable for:
#
- curtains, lightweight fabrics
$
- upholstery, cushions
%
- thick pile carpets, rugs and
runners
*
- for energy-saving vacuuming
(this setting is also very quiet)
(
- loop-pile carpets
)
- hard flooring and for intensive
cleaning of carpets
^
Turn the suction power selector
manually to the suction power setting
you require.
Opening the air inlet valve
It is easy to reduce the suction power
for a short time, e.g. to prevent rugs or
other objects being sucked into the
vacuum cleaner.
^
Open the air inlet valve far enough to
reduce the suction power.
The floorhead will be easier to
manoeuvre. Close the valve when you
are ready to use full power again.
