- Plug in. Switch on the appliance at the desired speed, by pressing the motor button once.

provide a filtering capacity of much superior quality, the appliance is equipped with the
special
H.E.P.A.
filter, which can trap truly microscopic particles!
1. The filter care and maintenance are essential for the quality of the air released at the
back of the appliance. We recommend checking the state of the filter at least once a
month, if the appliance is being used daily.
2. To inspect the filter, proceed in the following way: remove the grilled cover on the back
of
SW3
(Fig.19). You will see the
SW3 H.E.P.A.
filter fitted inside. Lay the cover on the
floor and extract the filter as shown in Fig.20.
Check the filter state; if there are traces of dust or dirt, shake it and brush it gently, to
remove them.
After cleaning, put the filter back into place and reassemble the cover, making sure to
properly fit the cover hooks onto the slits on the appliance body. Once the cover is in
place, rotate it upwards for the final fixing with the stopping tongue (Fig.21).

A) Rectangular brush
Reliable and robust, it is suitable for any kind of floor. This multipurpose brush is supplied
with other accessories:
A1
parquet and delicate flooring vacuum cleaner
A2
carpet and rug accessory
A3
liquid suction rubber accessory for floors
The choice to use steam only, vacuum only or both is mostly compulsory and depends
on the accessory being used, but in many cases it is up to the user, according to the type
of dirt to be dealt with: if the dirt is stubborn, it is advisable to use steam; to go over quic-
kly or to dry, vacuum will do. The brush is equipped with four handy grippers to attach a
cloth. It also has a slider for locking the joint. The swivel joint allows for easy use even in
small spaces (e.g. underneath furniture).
Useful Tips
Very Dirty Surfaces
Brush the surface in order to remove most of the dirt, then give steam to dissolve it, and
stop the steam.
Lastly, turn on the vacuum and go over the surface by tilting the brush forward, drying
and vacuuming the dirt.
Medium Dirty Surfaces
Operate with both steam and vacuum (depending, however, on the accessory being
used), then turn off the steam. The brush must always be tilted forward (to facilitate
vacuuming). After finishing work, do not stop the vacuum immediately, to allow the dirty
water still inside the sucking tube to reach the recovery tank.
Carpets and rugs
The appliance can clean and disinfect any kind of carpet or rug. It will revive colours,
restore the original thickness and eliminate impurities from the carpet bottom layer.
If your carpets and rugs are dusty on top, start by using the big brush with vacuum only
(using the carpet accessory).
After vacuuming, use the appliance with simultaneous action (steam+vacuum), accor-
ding to the same procedure recommended for medium dirty surfaces. With particularly
stubborn and crusty stains, we recommend the use of 1 hole dress-fit + vacuum nozzle
(F).
Steam ensures a good cleaning in any case, however, to pretreat carpets or rugs with
detergents, be careful not to vacuum off any foam produced as it could end up inside the
motor! It is advisable to use low foam detergents.
Adding a cloth
Fixing a cloth on the brush is recommended when you go over delicate materials with
steam: fabric, but also delicate surfaces like parquet or marble, when you want to dis-
solve and spread again wax (steam on low and delicate cloth that won’t scratch)
