appliance

• Push the flexible hose into the vacuum inlet (fig.1) and turn
until it locks. To remove it, turn in the opposite direction and
pull (fig.2).
• Push the metal telescopic tube into the end of the power
nozzle until you hear a locking ‘click’ (fig.3) (to release it, push
the locking button on the tube and remove it).
• Push the all floor type nozzle (22) into the end of the metal
telescopic tube until you hear a locking ‘click’ (fig.4) (to
release it, push the locking button on the nozzle and remove
it).
• Adjust the telescopic metal tube to the required length using
the telescopic system (TELESCOPIC SYSTEM) (fig.5).

Fit the appropriate accessory to the end of the metal
telescopic tube or the power nozzle:
- For rugs and carpets: use the all floor type nozzle in the
retracted brush nozzle position or the Turbobrush* (fibres and
animal hairs):
- For parquets and smooth floors: use the all floor type nozzle
in the advanced position or, for a better result, use the parquet
nozzle*.
- For corners and hard to reach spots: use the telescopic
crevice tool*.
- For furniture and fragile surfaces: use the brush built into the
power nozzle (EASY BRUSH) or the upholstery nozzle*.

2 • Plugging in the power cord and

switching on the appliance

Unwind the power cord completely, turn the electronic power
control (9) to the minimum position, plug in your vacuum
cleaner and press on the Stop/Start pedal (fig.8).
Remark: you can use your vacuum cleaner in the horizontal
position (sleigh position) but also in the vertical position,
notably when you are vacuuming the stairs or removing dust
from the curtains.
