of the dustbag may become clogged.
This will obstruct the air passage.
Subsequently, the dustbag needs
replacement, although the bag might

• To adjust the telescopic tube to the
required length: grasp the plastic ring and
pull out the upper tube as far as necessary
(fig. 4). Lock the telescopic tube in position by
releasing the plastic ring.
• Nozzles:
- Combi nozzle. This nozzle is convertible
for use on either carpets (without brush,
fig. 5) or hard floors (with brush, fig. 6);
- Small nozzle, brush nozzle and crevice
nozzle. These can be found in the special

socket.
• Press the on/off switch (

• The electronic suction power control on
the vacuum cleaner enables smooth suction
power adjustment (fig. 14).
Medium suction power is advisable for
general use.
Minimum suction power is advisable for
dusting using the brush nozzle and for cleaning
curtains, cloths, etc.
Maximum suction power is advisable for
cleaning very dirty carpets and hard floors.
• The suction power control at the hand
grip enables you to reduce suction power
(fig. 15). This extra facility is advisable if you
wish to apply lower suction power for a short
period.
Insufficient suction power?
Please check:
- if the slide on the vacuum cleaner is in the
required position;
- if the control at the hand grip is in "open"
position;
- if the dustbag is full;
- if the nozzle, tube or hose is blocked up.
To remove the obstruction, disconnect the
blocked-up item and connect it (as far as
possible) in adverse position. Then the air will
stream through the item in opposite direction.
Automatic suction power control
The automatic suction power control adjusts the
suction power to the type of floor (hard floor or
carpet) and when the dustbag becomes full.
Automatic suction power control is advisable for
general use on floors.
- Press button “AUTOMATIC” to activate
automatic suction power control (fig. 16).
