> Select a suitable brush attachment e, the

choice criteria being the type of soiling that
has to be removed and its positioning resp.
extent:

• The two brush attachments e with blue/
white bristles are ideal for removing stubborn
soiling, for example, on door hinges.

• For less stubborn soiling, use the brush at­tachment e with white bristles, as these are
softer and thus more suitable for the cleaning
of chrome, leather and smooth surfaces, with­out scratching them.

• For soiling at difficult to reach locations use
the brush attachment e with conically shaped
bristles, for example, for the cleaning of ventila­tion slots.

Place the selected brush attachment > e onto the
flange q for the brush attachments, such that
the slots on the attachment glide onto the guide
tracks on the flange q.

Then turn the brush attachment > e clockwise
through approx. 45° to secure it firmly to the
flange. The arrow symbol on the brush attach­ment e must then point towards the blue spot
on the flange q.

If required, place a suitable cleaning agent >
onto the bristles and then bring the device into
position at the location to be cleaned. For stub­born soiling, especially on cars and motorbikes,
a solvent may be necessary.

CAUTION

Particles of dirt and/or cleaning agent may be
widely scattered by the rotating bristles. When
using this device, protect your eyes with a pair of
safety glasses! Take care not to soil your clothing.

When you press on the On/Off switch > w, the
bristles rotate for as long as you hold the On/
Off switch w down.

If you slide the On/Off switch > w in the direc-
tion of the brush attachment e, the bristles will
rotate continuously.

For difficult application situations, or if there is >
a risk that the device could fall into a difficult to
reach location, you should pass your working
hand through the wrist cord u before starting
to use the device.

To stop the bristle rotation, slide the On/Off >
switch w back into its start position.

To remove a brush attachment > e, first turn it
anti-clockwise through approx. 45° then re­move it.

Should the performance of the device diminish, >
this means the batteries are depleted. Replace
them with new batteries of the same type.
