Dual functionality
Upright vacuuming Handheld vacuum
cleaner
Your vacuum cleaner can easily be configured
into two different cleaning modes:
• Upright vacuum cleaner for floors and carpets.
• Handheld vacuum cleaner (12) which can be
carried with you whilst cleaning hard to reach
places.
Upright vacuuming: assembly
1 Assemble the charging cradle (15) onto the
charging cradle base
(20). Securely click it into
place.
Place the assembled charging cradle on a flat,
stable surface.
2 Swing the upright handle (4) on the main vacuum
cleaner upwards until it clicks into place in an
upright position.
3 Place the motorised floor brush (19) on a level
surface and align the connector on the neck of
the motorised floor brush with the connector hole
on the base of the main vacuum cleaner body
(7).
Holding the neck of the motorised floor brush in
place, lower the main vacuum cleaner body onto
the motorised floor brush until you hear the two
pieces click into place.
When attaching the motorised floor brush, ensure
that the latching mechanism is fully locked in
place to ensure electrical connection is made.
4 Fit the handheld vacuum cleaner (12) into the
cavity on the main vacuum cleaner body by firstly
sliding the suction end into place over the suction
hole in the main vacuum cleaner body cavity, then
push the handle end in to place until a click is
heard.
5 With the handheld vacuum cleaner in place on the
main vacuum cleaner body, insert the vacuum
cleaner into the charging cradle, ensuring that the
lip on the rear of the main vacuum cleaner body
hooks onto the notch on the concave section of
the charging cradle.

Using in upright mode
Turn the product On by using either the upright
On/Off button (5) or the handheld vacuum
cleaner On/Off button (10).
The handheld vacuum cleaner power indicator
light
(11) and the floor brush power indicator
light (18) will illuminate green.
NOTE: When the battery reduces to a pre-set
level the product will stop, the light will
extinguish and the product must be recharged.
If the motorised floor brush (19) is stalled, eg.
by a foreign object or if used on very deep pile
carpet, the floor nozzle indicator light will
extinguish. Switch off, remove the cause of the
stall, and leave for a few minutes to allow the
floor nozzle protection to self reset.
To clean the motorised floor brush, you must
remove the handheld vacuum cleaner as shown
in ‘Handheld vacuuming’, page 7. Then, press
the floor brush release button
(17) and pull the
motorised floor brush away.
Turn the floor brush over to inspect the brush
bar.
Using a coin, turn the locking button on the
brush bar cover anti-clockwise from the
position to the position.
Remove the brush bar end cover and lift the
brush bar out. Pull away any hairs or fibres from
the brush bar. If they are tightly wound around
the brush, carefully snip the fibres with scissors,
being careful not to damage the rotating brush
bar, pull away from the rotating brush bar and
dispose of.
Charging
Connect the mains plug (21) into the mains supply.
Locate the vacuum cleaner on to the charging
cradle
(15). The indicator light (11) will glow red
whilst charging and turn green when fully charged.
A full charge may take 5 hours.
When fully charged, the battery will stay charged
for many days, however, we recommend leaving the
cleaner continuously on trickle charge so the
batteries are always full.

from the main vacuum cleaner body (7), press
the handheld vacuum cleaner release button (8).
2 Pull the handheld vacuum cleaner away from
the main vacuum cleaner body
(7).
• After use, return the handheld vacuum cleaner
(12) to the cavity on the main vacuum cleaner
body (7) by firstly sliding the suction end into
place over the suction hole in the main vacuum
cleaner body cavity, then push the handle end
in to place until a click is heard.

WARNING: Always remove the handheld vacuum
cleaner from the main vacuum cleaner body and
the charger from the mains supply before
undertaking any maintenance or cleaning
procedures.

day-to-day use, but an occasional wipe over with
a damp cloth will help maintain its good looks.
Take care not to get the electrical connections wet.
Abrasive cleaners should not be used.
Empty the dust canister (13) regularly even if it
does not look full, this will maintain the
performance.

5. Replace the filter into the dust canister (13), then
replace the dust canister back onto the handheld
vacuum cleaner.
6. Replace the handheld vacuum cleaner (12) back
into the main vacuum cleaner body (7) if upright
cleaning.
The guarantee may be invalidated if the motor is
damaged due to: using the appliance without
the filter installed; not cleaning the filter; or not
replacing a damaged filter.
Cleaning the dust canister filter

be cleaned each time the dust canister (13) is
emptied.
1. Follow steps 1-4 of ‘Emptying the dust canister’.
2. Pull the filter out from the filter assembly (14).
Also, open the lid to the cyclone cone and clean
the cyclone.

and thoroughly air dry before re-fitting.

or detergents.
