4 Prepare the appropriate attachments for the surface you want to clean. Put the desired
attachment on the telescopic metal tube (24).
Universal floor and carpet brush (29).
You can use it for all kinds of floors, given that it is retractable so that it can be adapted to
the surface to be vacuumed. To change the cleaning position, press the brush button (28)
with your foot. We recommend cleaning hard floors, wood and parquet with the fibre brush
extended, and cleaning carpets and rugs with the fibre brush retracted.
Parquet brush (32).
We recommend using it on both parquet and hard floors (tile, ceramic, marble, etc.).
Suction head (34).
For cleaning narrow places, grooves and corners.
Upholstery brush (33).
Especially designed for sofas and all other upholstered surfaces.
Furniture brush (31).
Recommended for cleaning furniture, blinds, lamp shades, etc.
• You can adjust the length of the telescopic tube (24). Slide the adjustment device (25)
downwards to release the top part of the tube. Simultaneously pull upwards or
downwards on the top part until the desired tube length is reached.
5 Pull out the cord (2) to the yellow mark (ideal length). If necessary, the cord can be
pulled out to the red mark, but not any further.
6 Plug it into the mains.
7 Turn on the vacuum by pressing the pedal switch (3), and adjust the suction power by
opening or closing the regulator on the handle (14). (The suction power is decreased by
opening the valve, and it is increased by closing the valve).
You can also adjust the suction power using the electronic regulator (6). Slide the
regulator between the MIN. and MAX. positions, depending on the desired suction power.
)
If you hear a sharp whistling sound that is different from the normal sound when using
the vacuum, turn it off and unplug it. Check to see if the air inlets and outlets or the filters
are obstructed. If they are obstructed, eliminate the cause.
,
When using the vacuum, pull it behind you as if it were a cart. The handle (9) can also
be used to carry the vacuum cleaner.
,
This appliance has a position called the "horizontal parking" position, which can be
conveniently used during stops while cleaning. To put it in this position, insert the hook
of the telescopic tube in the groove (5) of the vacuum cleaner body (Figure 1).
,
If you wish, you can place the suction head (34) and the furniture brush (31) in the
attachment holder (26).
8 When finished, switch the appliance off by pressing the On/Off button (3). Unplug it,
and press the button (8) to wind up the cord. Hold the cord plug in your hand to prevent
it from banging against the vacuum cleaner housing.
,
To save space when the vacuum is stored, attach the telescopic tube to the body of the
vacuum using the hook (26) (Figure 2).
