Carrying and Storage
To make the appliance easier to store and to
carry, slide the floor nozzle, turbo nozzle and
electrical vacuum brush onto the tool rail.
Parking System
For storing the suction pipe and nozzle during
short pauses in vacuuming. The bracket on the
nozzle is slid into the parking rail on appliance.
Depending on the model, the appliance switches
off automatically.
Maintenance and Cleaning
When performing maintenance or cleaning the
appliance, ensure that it is switched off and
unplugged from the mains. As required, wipe
the housing and the paper filter compartment
with a damp cloth. Do not use any abrasive
cleaners or solvents. Occasionally vacuum the
floor nozzle and the brushes with the crevice
nozzle.
What to do if ...
the nozzle is hard to push:
Lower the power setting on the appliance.
Cleaning efficiency is not degraded in this
case.
the motor thermal cut-out has tripped:
If the motor is overloaded, e.g. due to a full
filter bag or blocked accessory, the motor
thermal cut-out shuts down the motor.
In this case, switch off the appliance.
Unplug from the mains and leave the
motor to cool down. Check the hygiene
paper bag, suction tube and suction hose,
remove any blockage. The appliance can be
turned on again after approximately 30
minutes.
the fuse has blown:
If you have plugged other high power elec-
trical appliances into the same circuit and
use them at the same time as the vacuum
cleaner, the fuse may blow.
This can be avoided by turning down the
electronic power regulation to the minimum setting prior to switching on the
appliance, and only selecting a higher setting after switching on the vacuum cleaner.
Your vacuum cleaner is equipped with an
electronic soft start controller that
reduces the start up current of the
motor, this avoids the mains fuse blowing under normal circumstances. As a
result, at the lowest power setting the
appliance may have a start delay of
approx. 4 seconds.
the paper filter becomes damaged and the
hygiene filter is soiled:
Remove filer frame, replace hygiene filter
and reinsert the filter frame,
Fit new hygiene paper bag.

Page 12
the lid jumps out of the hinge:
If the housing lid comes out of the hinge
due to the lid being opened too far, that is
past the stop, place the lid on the housing
and press it closed until it engages.
Protecting the Environment
Do not simply throw away packaging material
and old appliances.
Equipment Packaging:
The cardboard packaging can be placed in the
waste paper collection.
Deposit the plastic bag made of polyethylene
(PE) at a PE collection point for recycling.
Recycling the Appliance at the End of its Life:
The plastic components all carry a material
identification marking so that, like the other
materials, they can be recycled at the end of
the life of the appliance.
Please inquire with your local authority about
your local recycling centre.
Batteries:
Do not throw used batteries in household
rubbish. Dispose of these in the special containers provided by the local authority.
