Highlights
Energy efficiency class A
This vacuum cleaner is engineered to achieve
full performance with an energy efficiency class
A.
AirflowMax technology
TriActive+ nozzle
The TriActive+ nozzle applies 3 cleaning
actions in one go: 1) It gently opens the carpet
with its specially designed soleplate to remove
the dust deep down. 2) It sucks up big bits with
its larger opening at the front. 3) It sweeps up
the dust and dirt alongside furniture and walls
with its two side brushes.
A-class on hard floors
integrated in the handle of the appliance,
always ready to use.
ActiveLock couplings
The ActiveLock couplings allow you to easily
connect and disconnect the different nozzles
and accessories from the telescopic tube while
cleaning.
Soft bumper
The unique AirflowMax technology keeps the
suction power stronger for longer* to use the
bag to the very end. The technology is build
around the optimization of three key elements:
1) Unique ribs profile inside the dust chamber
to maximize airflow around the dustbag and
enable the use of the entire bag surface. 2)
Specially designed dust chamber capacity that
allows the dustbag to fully unfold uniformly. 3)
High quality, non-clogging fibre structures in
the dustbag absorb dust without blocking the
pores, thus avoiding a reduction in suction
power.
This product achieves the highest cleaning
performance class on hard floors. 100% of dust
is picked up!
Integrated Brush
The vacuum cleaner is designed with
integrated accessories, so that you do not
need to carry extra pieces around while you
clean. The soft dusting brush is coveninently
The soft bumper protects furniture and
prevents damage if you accidentally bump into
your furniture or walls and stops it from
getting stuck on edges, so you can move
around faster.
Allergy filter
Developed to meet the specific needs of
allergy sufferers and more generally of people
demanding a higher level of hygiene.
