Safety information
! Please note
The mains socket must be protected by at least a 16
amp circuit breaker.
If a circuit breaker is tripped when you switch on the
vacuum cleaner, this may be because other electrical
ppliances which have a high current draw are con-
a
nected to the same power circuit.
To prevent the circuit breaker from tripping, select
the lowest power setting before switching the appliance on, and increase the power only once it is running.
Notes on the energy label
This vacuum cleaner is a general purpose vacuum
cleaner with a primary hose.
To achieve the energy efficiency rating and cleaning
effectiveness rating on carpets, please use the interchangeable universal nozzle.
To achieve the energy efficiency rating and cleaning
effectiveness rating on hard floors with gaps and
cracks, please use the supplied hard-floor nozzle without the clip-in edge cleaning bristles.
These calculations are based on the Commission
Delegated Regulation (EU) No. 665/2013 of 3rd May
2013 supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU.
Unless otherwise stated, all the procedures referred
to in these instructions were carried out in accordance with the EN 60312-1:2017* standard.
*As the motor service test is carried out with the dust
collector empty, the stated motor service life must be
increased by 10% for tests with the dust collector half
filled.

Caution:
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
