Installation and connection
Assembling the vacuum cleaner
(Fig. 01)
You can assemble the vacuum cleaner in
2 different ways.
You can place the suction wand either
above or below the PowerUnit.
Take care to assemble the vacuum
cleaner exactly as shown in the dia-
gram.
The advantages of placing the
PowerUnit at the bottom of the vac-
uum cleaner are as follows:
– secure self-standing function possible
(see "Use" – "Self-standing function for
short pauses in vacuuming")
– ergonomic (reduced strain on the
wrist)
– convenient cleaning of large surfaces
The advantages of placing the
PowerUnit at the top of the vacuum
cleaner are as follows:
– convenient cleaning underneath furni-
ture
– PowerUnit can be removed quickly
Using the PowerUnit solo (Fig. 02)
The PowerUnit can be used on its own
without the suction wand and electro-
brush as a quick way of vacuuming up
crumbs and lint in specific areas.
Tip: This configuration is particularly
suitable when using the three-piece ac-
cessory set (see "Using the accessories
supplied").

figure your vacuum cleaner, you can
connect the Comfort handle to either
the suction wand or the PowerUnit.

dle and down on to the PowerUnit
connector from above until it audibly

Switch off the vacuum cleaner using
the On/Off switch on the front of the
Comfort handle if you want to sepa-
rate the sections.
Press the release catch and remove
the Comfort handle by pulling upward
(Fig. 04).
Connecting the PowerUnit and the
suction wand (Fig. 05)
Depending on how you decide to con-
figure your vacuum cleaner, the suction
wand is located either above or below
the PowerUnit.
Slide the suction wand along the
guide line on the dust container han-
dle and down on to the PowerUnit
connector from above until it audibly
clicks into place (left image detail).
Push the PowerUnit connector down
on to the suction wand from above
