(with the brush strips folded out).

super Parquet nozzle (specific types only)
You can use the parquet nozzle to clean parquet and other types of hard floors. The parquet nozzle
is equipped with rotating microfibre pads that gently clean and polish the floor and remove
stubborn dirt. The nozzle loosens dirt and traps it inside the fibres of the pads. The pads in
combination with the high suction power of this vacuum cleaner cause this nozzle to clean 3 times
better than ordinary nozzles.
Never use water to clean wooden floors or parquet.

1 Connect the small nozzle or crevice/brush nozzle directly to the handgrip or to the
tube (Fig. 11).

reach places and use the brush side to clean computers, bookshelves etc.
