The floorhead will be easier to man-
oeuvre. Close the valve when you are
ready to use full power again.
During vacuuming
When vacuuming, pull the cleaner be-
hind you on its wheels. You can stand
it upright for vacuuming stairs and
curtains etc.
When vacuuming, in particular
fine dust, e.g. sawdust, sand, plaster,
flour, talcum powder etc., electro-
static charges build up naturally. Un-
der certain conditions these charges
will be released. To avoid the un-
pleasant effects of these discharges,
a metal inlay has been incorporated
into the underside of the handle.
Please make sure that you keep your
hand in constant contact with this
metal strip during vacuuming (dia.
24).
Setting down, transportation
and storage
Park System for pauses during
vacuuming (dia. 25)
The Park system allows you to conveni-
ently park the suction tube and floor-
head during brief pauses.
Slot the floorhead into the slot in the
parking attachment.
If your vacuum cleaner is on a slop-
ing surface, e.g. a ramp, retract the
telescopic tube fully.
Park system for storage (dia. 26)
Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the power supply when
you have finished using it. Switch off
at the wall socket and withdraw the
plug.
Stand the vacuum cleaner upright.
Retract the telescopic tube fully.
Slot the floorhead downwards into
one of the parking attachments.
This makes the vacuum cleaner easier
to carry or store.
If your vacuum cleaner has an XXL
handle, you can detach this so that the
vacuum cleaner requires less storage
space (dia. 27).
Detach the XXL handle from the re-
tracted telescopic suction tube.
Wind the suction hose around the
telescopic suction tube and then slot
the XXL handle into the second park-
ing attachment.
Maintenance
Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the electrical supply for
maintenance work and for cleaning.
Switch off at the wall socket and un-
plug it.
