Fix the accessory holder* (I-II.26) to the notch in the self-
standing position (7) located at the back of the vacuum
cleaner and store the accessories on top (fig.2).
If you have the ERGO COMFORT chain of accessories
without the tube/nozzle Locking system (I)*
- Fit the telescopic metal tube to the end of the nozzle until
you hear a 'click' (Fig 3) (To remove, press the tube lock
button and pull).
- Fit the nozzle for all floor types* (I.20) to the end of the
telescopic metal tube (Fig.4a).

(parquet flooring), use the 2-position nozzle setting (I-20* II-

nozzle for smooth floors with the removable brush (I-27b* II-

crevice nozzle*.

ERGONOMIC RECOMMENDATIONS
Ergonomic, the ERGO COMFORT range has been
designed to facilitate and improve user comfort
when vacuuming.
To prevent bending over and to ensure upright
posture, make sure to:
1. Adjust the length of the ERGO COMFORT
telescopic metal tube to your body size (fig.6).
2. Place your second hand in front of the ERGO
COMFORT nozzle handle (fig.7).
*According to model: these parts are specific to certain models
or they are accessories that can be purchased separately.
IMPORTANT :
The nozzle for smooth floors with joins
(I-27a* II-27a*) is used to measure the performance
related to the energy label.
The nozzle allows your appliance to achieve optimum
dust removal performance on smooth floors with joins.
IMPORTANT: do not operate your vacuum cleaner
without the filtration system fitted (foam, microfilter and
filter).
