Operation
Micro pile adjustment
Three micro pile adjustments enable individual
adaptation to extreme carpeting surfaces and hard
floors.
Pos. 1 = normal carpeting
Pos. 2 = looped pile
Pos. 3 = deep-pile carpets
Filter replacement indicator
The filter replacement indicator analyzes the air
permeability of the filter system.
Filter empty = no indicator reaction
Filter full = indicator shows RED
Paper filter (dust bag) has to
be replaced.
If the filter replacement indicator still shows RED after
the dust bag (paper filter) has been replaced, then the
(micro) air exhaust and/or motor protection filter or the
accessories are blocked.
In this case, the filters have to be replaced or the blockage in the accessories has to be removed.
In this case, switch off the appliance, remove the blockage and/or replace the filters.
14
Electronic brush and suction power control
After switching on the appliance and tilting the guiding
tube, the GREEN power-on indicator [K] lights up.
In case of extreme overloading of the brush motor
(e.g. if the roller is blocked), the electronic overload device is triggered: Overload indicator [M] lights up RED
and GREEN goes out. In this case, first switch off and
unplug the appliance. Eliminate blockage and after
waiting about one minute, switch on the appliance again.
Opening the canister (dust compartment)
To replace the filter or dust bag, push up the latch to
open the front of the canister (dust compartment).
Lid closing stop
The lid closing stop prevents the lid from closing and also prevents operation of the appliance without a dust bag
or when the dust bag is inserted incorrectly.

new dust bag on the orifice in the canister and push back
as far as it will go.
Operation / After use
