Operation
1. Unpack the appliance and all its accessories.
2. Check the contents for completeness and possible damages. Scope of delivery see
ATTENTION:
Always transport or ship the appliance in its original packaging to avoid damage. Keep the packaging for
such an event.
Dispose of no longer needed packaging material properly.
NOTE:
Immediately contact your dealer if you have found damage resulting from transport.
3. Insert the end of the suction hose into the intake opening (Fig. 2) of the cylinder vacuum cleaner until you
hear and feel it locking into place. Make sure that the latch points downwards.
4. Insert the handle into the upper end of the telescopic tube (Fig. 3/A).
5. Attach the floor nozzle to the bottom end of the telescopic tube (Fig. 3/B).
6. Adjust the length of the telescopic tube. Press down the release latch on the tube (Fig. 3/C) to do this. Then
extend the telescopic tube to the desired length. Let go of the release catch while pulling until it locks in
place. You will hear a distinct click.
7. Push the accessory mount (Fig. 1/14) onto the telescopic tube (Fig. 1/13). Then push the furniture brush
(Fig. 1/15) and the crevice nozzle (Fig. 1/16) onto the accessory mount (Fig. 1/14).
WARNING:
Danger of injury! A damaged appliance must never be used. Check the cylinder vacuum cleaner and the
power cord each time before using the appliance.
WARNING:
Danger of injury! Especially when vacuum-cleaning stairs make sure that you always stand on a higher level
than the appliance.
ATTENTION:
Only use the cylinder vacuum cleaner with all filters intact, in dry condition and correctly fitted. Make sure
that no openings are clogged.
ATTENTION:
Before vacuuming, make sure that the fitted nozzle and the set suction power suit the surface to be cleaned.
Also observe the flooring manufacturer's recommendations.
1. Push the desired nozzle onto the lower end of the telescopic tube or the handle (Fig. 4).
2. When using the floor nozzle, adjust the carpet/hard floor selector (Fig. 5/1) according to the type of flooring::
for hard floors, e.g. laminate, tiles, PVC, etc. (Fig. 5/A).
for deep- and short-pile carpets, runners (Fig. 5/B)
3. Pull out the power cord by the plug up to the yellow mark (Fig. 6/5).
WARNING:
Danger of electric shock! If the red marking (Fig. 6/4) shows, press the cord retracting button (Fig. 6/3) to
pull in the cord up to the yellow mark (Fig. 6/5) again. Otherwise, the power cord may be damaged.
4. Insert the mains plug into a socket with ground/safety contact.
5. Switch on the cylinder vacuum cleaner with the on/off switch (Fig. 6/1).
6. Use the power control (Fig. 7/1) to adjust the suction power to the type of surface to be cleaned.
- By turning the control clockwise, suction power is increased, e.g. for removing deep-set dirt particles from
carpets, runners, crevices, etc.
- By turning it counter-clockwise, suction power is reduced, e.g. for cleaning drapes, etc.
NOTE:
With the bypass vent (Fig. 7/A2) you can quickly reduce suction if less power is needed, e.g. to release
curtains accidentally sucked in.
1. Switch off the cylinder vacuum cleaner with the on/off switch (Fig. 8/1) and pull the plug from the mains
socket.
2. Keep the plug in your hand.
WARNING:
Danger of injury! During uncontrolled retraction the power cord can whip around, become an obstacle or
overthrow objects. Therefore keep the plug in your hand and guide it during retraction of the power cord.
3. To retract the power cord, push the cord retracting button (Fig. 8/2).
