appliance.
• Never use the appliance unless it has a dust bag, motor filter and exhaust filter
fitted.
• Only use accessories manufactured or recommended by the manufacturer.
• Do not use it on wet surfaces.

PREPARING THE APPLIANCE
• Open the lid of the appliance by pressing the opening button (7), which is
located in the hole immediately under the lid. Activate button by pressing
upwards towards lid.
• Open the lid until it locks into place.
o Check a dust bag is in place (refer to Replacing filters and dust bag below).
o Check a motor filter is in place (refer to Replacing filters and dust bag below).
• Close lid tightly.
• Check an exhaust filter (2) is in place in the exhaust port (a) (refer to Replacing
filters and dust bag below).
• Attach the hose (21) to the appliance by inserting it into the hose connector (24)
in the hose port on the top (6) until you hear a click.
o To remove the hose, press in the lock buttons (23) on both sides of the hose
connector and pull it out.
o NOTE: It may be necessary to press the lock buttons in hard, as the
connection can be tight.
• Attach the handle (19) to one end of the telescopic tube (16) and fit the required
nozzle (9, 11, 12 or 13) to the other.
USE
• Pull the cord (14) out of the appliance. The cord must not be pulled out any
further than the red mark. Plug in and switch on the power.
• Press the on/off button (4) to start and stop the appliance.
• You can adjust the length of the telescopic tube by pressing the lock button (22)
and pulling or pushing the tube until it reaches the required length.
• The suction strength can be regulated during use by using the button for
controlling suction strength (3).
• The suction force can be further regulated by opening and closing the air valve
(17) on the handle.
o When the air valve closes, the appliance sucks with the power you have set
using the button for controlling suction strength. This is the normal setting.
o
When the vent opens, more air is allowed in, reducing suction power at
the floor nozzle. This function is for cleaning curtains and other light items which
can get sucked into the nozzle.
• The floor nozzle bristles have two settings which can be selected using the
brush function button (10).
o When cleaning hard surfaces (wooden flooring, stone flooring, clinker,
linoleum, etc.), the nozzle brushes should be extended.
o When cleaning carpets and rugs, the brushes should be retracted into the
nozzle.
• The bag change indicator (5) will normally be blue. If it changes to orange when
the vacuum cleaner is in use, or if the suction strength is significantly reduced,
the dust bag must be changed (refer to Replacing filters and dust bag below). If
the indicator remains orange after replacing the dust bag, check hose or nozzle
for blockage, or motor/exhaust filter for dirt.
• IMPORTANT! Investigate what is causing the indicator to remain orange
and deal with the problem. Do not use appliance if the indicator is orange.
Permanent motor damage can result.
Tips
• There is a nozzle holder (18) on the front of the telescopic tube for use when
vacuuming.
• Each nozzle has a special purpose. Try each of them out in different situations,
e.g. the furniture nozzle (11), the crevice nozzle (12) and the brush nozzle (13)
and see which one you think works best.
• When taking a break, attach the parking bracket on the back of the floor nozzle
or the parking bracket on the tube (20) to the holder (1) on the back of the
appliance (not shown on illustrations).
• You can lift and carry the appliance using the carrying handle (8). Never pull or
lift the appliance by the cord.
REPLACING FILTERS AND DUST BAG
We recommend that you clean the filter pads at least twice a year or when they
become dirty. We recommend replacing the filter pads after 4 to 6 months’ use,
when they become dirty, or if the appliance’s suction strength is reduced.
IMPORTANT! The appliance must not be used if the filters are not in place.
Replacing Exhaust Filter
• Remove the cover for the exhaust filter (d) by pressing the locking tab down and
pulling the cover outwards.
• Lift the filter holder (3) out from the exhaust port and remove the filter pad (f)
from the filter holder. Clean the filter pad as described under Cleaning below.
• Replace filter pad in filter holder and replace filter holder in the exhaust port.
• Fit the cover over the exhaust filter so that the small lugs on the covers catch on
the edge of the exhaust port and the locking tab locks in place with a click.
Replacing the Motor Filter
• Open the lid of the appliance by pressing the opening button, which is located in
the hole immediately under the lid. Activate button by pressing upwards towards
lid.
• Open the lid until it locks into place.
• Remove the dust bag or push it aside.
• Pull motor filter out of its holder.
• Remove the filter pad (b) from the filter holder (c) and replace or clean the pad as
described under Cleaning below.
• Replace the filter pad in the filter holder so that the small lugs hold it in place
and put the filter holder back into the appliance.
• Check dust bag is correctly fitted before closing lid (see below).
