• Unroll the supply cable (11) till reaching the yellow
sign on the cable itself, by pulling it as shown in fig 1.
DO NOT under any circumstances unroll beyond the
red sign.

• Plug into a suitable power outlet.

• Push the switch (7), the appliance will start operating.
The ON/OFF switch (7) can also be operated by
touching it with your foot, so you do not have to
bend.

• It is possible to regulate suction power through
the slide control (9). Moving it to the right, the suc­tion power increases, while moving to the left, the
suction power will decrease.

•We recommend minimum power for curtains, medium
low power for sofas, armchairs and cushions,
medium high for carpets and high for floors and hard
surfaces (ceramics, marble, etc.).

• Thanks to the manual suction regulator (C2), the suc­tioning power can be changed according to the clean­ing task, and it allows to intervene promptly in case of
accidental suctioning (e.g. of curtains). We recom­mend an open regulator on curtains, carpets, sofas
and so on… Move the regulator backwards till uncov­ering the hole on the hose. To suction again at maxi­mum power, move the regulator forward till covering
the hole.

•To end suctioning, press again the ON/OFF switch (7).

Tools may be connected directly to the hose (D) or to
the telescopic tube (A)

Using the telescopic tube (A)

The tube is about 50 cm long when closed, 79 cm when
extended to its greatest length. To increase or decrease
length, press the catch (A1) and extend or reduce
length as desired.

Using the universal brush (B)

Connect the brush to the telescopic tube. If you move
the selector on the brush (B1) and press with a foot, you
can change the suctioning surface without bending
down. The position with bristles extended is recom­mended for all non-carpeted floors. The position without
bristles is recommended for carpets.

Using the Small Brush (E)

Thanks to its soft bristles, the small brush is suitable for
dusting delicate surfaces like frames, books and so
on…
The small brush can be used with or without bristle fit­ting (E1). To separate the fitting from the brush just pull
it outwards (fig. 4)

Using the Lance for edge cleaning (F)

This lance is suitable for thorough cleaning of the most
difficult places, like skirting-boards, sofa gaps, arm­chairs, upholstered furniture, car seats.

power cable by pressing the button (8), being careful to
accompany it during winding.
