H) HOW TO USE THE ACCESSORIES 

1. When  using the accessories always keep the vacuum cleaner  in the upright position, making
sure the beater bar is in the OFF position.
2.Pull out the hose from the suction pipe inlet and remove it from the 
hose clip. Then slide the hose through the hose support and connect 
any accessory as illustrated bellow. 
NOTE: After using the accessories, re-insert the hose through the hose
clip and connect back into the suction pipe inlet. 
Make sure to distribute the length of the hose evenly in its storage 
position so as to prevent any slack length of hose from touching the floor, 
particularly when the cleaner is in a low position.

CAUTION  While using the accessories, hold the handle

of the cleaner with one hand, as shown above, to avoid
pulling the cleaner over.

To prevent scratches or other damage to hard
floors, Linoleum etc., switch the beater bar off
using the pedal.

G) FLOOR SCRATCH / CARPET DAMAGE PREVENTION

Hard floor

Carpeted  floor

To avoid damaging carpeted floors or rugs, do not
leave the beater bar rotating in the same place for
too long.
ATTENTION: Refer to your carpet manufacturers
cleaning recommendations. Some more delicate
carpets and long pile carpets may require that they be
vacuumed with the beater bar off, to prevent damage.
