Getting the best results
Carpets:

Hard floors:
Use floor nozzle with lever in this position.
Curtains/lightweight fabrics:
Reduce the suction power. Use the
upholstery nozzle for curtains, cushions etc.
Confined areas:
Use the crevice nozzle for tight corners
and radiators etc.
Lamps, pictures and bookshelves:
Use the dusting
brush.
Dustbag indicator and changing the dustbag
For peak performance the dustbag should be changed when full. The
mechanical dustbag indicator window will gradually turn red when
filling and completely red when full.
If the dustbag should get broken in the cleaner, take the cleaner to
service centre for cleaning. This is not covered by the guarantee.
The dustbag full indicator may signify that the bag is blocked
(occasionally caused by finer dust) which will cause loss of suction and
may result in overheating. If this occurs change the bag even if it is
not full. DO NOT VACUUM VERY FINE DUST (PLASTER, CEMENT, COLD
CINDERS...).
To check the dustbag, the cleaner must be switched on, with all
attachments connected but the nozzle does not have to be placed on
the floor.
To change the dustbag
7 Open the cleaner cover.
8 Remove the dustbag from its holder.
Insert the new dustbag into the holder.
9 Adjust the bottom corners of the dustbag into the dustbag
compartment.
10 Adjust the upper part of the dustbag into the dustbag
compartment.
7 Close the dustbag compartment and continue cleaning.
We recommend the dustbag is changed after using a carpet
cleaning powder or if there is a bad smell from the cleaner.
Note: Only use original dustbag and filters
Dustbag (Ref. number: E53n)
Dustbag safety device
To avoid damaging the cleaner, do not use it without a dustbag. A
safety
device is fitted which prevents the cover closing without a dustbag in
place. Do not attempt to force cover shut.
Changing/cleaning the filters
Never use the cleaner without the filters in place.
The filters should be changed/cleaned approximately every fifth
dustbag.
To maintain Motor Protection filter
7 Open the cleaner cover.
11 Remove the filter unit, rinse the filter under warm tap water only
and dry the filter completely (11, 14, 15). The original filtering
performance is now restored. Replace the unit back into the cleaner
and close cover ensuring it is securely in place and the cover is
properly closed. (11, 7) Latest every second year replace the old
filter with a new one.
To maintain HEPA filter (U4220, U4230)
12 Press the catch to open the filter cover.
13 Replace the old filter with a new one ensuring that it is
securely in place and the cover is properly closed. Latest
every second year replace the old filter or approximately
every fifth dustbag.
Troubleshooting
Dustbag:
please check that the dustbag is placed correctly and
ensure that it is not jammed.
Power:
if the electric power does not come on, disconnect from
mains and check plugs, cable and fuses where appropriate.
The cleaner may switch itself off in event of severe blockage or
excessively dirty filters. In such cases, disconnect from mains
and allow to cool for 30 minutes. Clear blockage and/or replace
filter(s) and restart. The clearing of blocked hoses is not covered
by the guarantee. To avoid blockages and maintain suction
efficiency, the floor nozzles should be cleaned regularly using the
hose handle. Please see additional Volta information towards the
back of this booklet.
Water:
if water is sucked into the cleaner the motor must
be changed at a service centre. This is not covered by the
guarantee.
