To change the suction power, slide the on/off switch to
the desired position:
Power level 1

Vacuuming without the electric brush switched on.
For simple cleaning tasks on hard floors and particu-
larly low operating noise.
The appliance achieves the maximum run time at
this level.
Power level 2
2
Vacuuming at normal power and with the electric
brush switched on.
For normal cleaning tasks on all floors at an average
run time.
Turbo level
Turbo
Vacuuming at full power and with the electric brush
switched on.
For particularly demanding cleaning tasks on all sur-
faces (carpets, in particular) and when using an op-
tional accessory. The appliance achieves a shorter
run time at this level.

During short pauses in vacuuming, the appliance can
be left standing anywhere in the room. To do this, tilt
the vacuum cleaner forwards slightly in the direction
of the nozzle.
!
Caution: When the appliance is left standing, it must
be switched off, because if the brush is turning while
the appliance is standing still, it could cause damage
to the floor covering.

In order to achieve the best possible vacuuming re-
sults, the dust container should be emptied after every
use or, at the latest, when dust at one point in the dust
container has reached the marking.
We recommend that you not fill the dust container bey-
ond the marking, as this leads to considerable soiling
of the filter.
