Vacuuming
!
Please note:
Floor tools are subject to a certain amount of wear,
depending on the type of hard floor you have (e.g.
rough, rustic tiles). Therefore, you must check the
underside of the floor tool at regular intervals. Worn
undersides of floor tools may have sharp edges that
can damage sensitive hard floors, such as parquet or
linoleum. The manufacturer does not accept any
responsibility for damage caused by worn floor tools.
Figure
Set the adjustable floor tool:
Rugs and carpets =>
Hard floors =>
If you are vacuuming up relatively large particles, make
sure that you vacuum them up successively and
carefully to ensure that the vacuum channel of the floor
tool does not become blocked. If necessary, you should
raise the nozzle in order to better vacuum up the dirt
particles.
Figure Vacuuming with accessories
Attach the nozzles to the suction pipe or hand grip as
required:
a) Crevice nozzle for vacuuming crevices and corners,
etc.
b) Upholstery nozzle for vacuuming upholstered
furniture, curtains, etc.
c) Hard-floor tool
For vacuuming hard floor coverings
(tiles, parquet flooring, etc.)
●

Changing the filter
!
Please note:
Always switch off the appliance before
changing the filter.
Replacing the dust bag
Figure
●
If the dust bag change indicator in the lid is filled
completely yellow when the floor tool is lifted from
the floor with the highest power setting selected, the
dust bag must be changed, even though it may not
yet be full. Even if the dust bag is not full, it may still
need changing, due to the type of dust which has
been vacuumed.
First check that the nozzle, suction pipe and flexible
hose are not blocked, as this would also lead to the
dust bag change indicator being triggered.
●
The hand grip can easily be detached from the hose
to remove blockages.
