Safety Instructions

6
The VC7020 is a bagless vacuum cleaner which has two HEPA lters and
one sponge lter. These lters are crucial to the vacuum’s performance so we
recommend that the user ensures they are cleaned at least once a month.
This will ensure that the vacuum performs at an optimal level of suction and
cleaning power. For more guidance on cleaning and maintenance,
please see page 8.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner without air lters in place.
Do not pick up hard or sharp objects such as glass, nails, screws, coins etc.
Take extra care when vacuuming on stairs.
Do not use the vacuum to pick up ammable or combustible materials (lighter
uid, gasoline etc.) or use in the presence of explosive liquids of vapour.
Do not use in an enclosed space lled with vapours given off of oil-based paints,
paint thinner, moth proong, ammable dust or any other explosive or toxic
vapours.
Do not vacuum burning material and ashes
Always unplug the vacuum cleaner before connecting or disconnecting the hose.
Do not allow the plug to whip when rewinding it.
Store your vacuum indoors in a cool, dry place.
Do not use the vacuum to clean your pets or any other animal.
If the dust cup gets damaged, change immediately before the next use.
If the HEPA lter/s get damaged in any way, please ensure these are replaced
before the next use.
If any abnormal noise, smell, smoke or any other failure or breakage is found
during the operation, you should turn off the switch and unplug the vacuum from
the mains socket. Then contact Duronic directly to enquire about repair - do not
repair it by yourself.

front of the vacuum cleaner
into the inlet hole, then turn it

can turn the hose connection
back to the left and pull it out.
Pull the power cable out of
the vacuum, ensuring that you
stop when you see the yellow
mark.
Make sure that the red mark is
not visible; if it is, this means
you have pulled the cable out
too far.

the exi hose.
If you ever need to
disassemble the vacuum,
you can pull these apart to
separate them.

Using the Attachments
2-in-1 Tool
Floor Brush
Turbo Brush
This nozzle attachment is used for reaching
all the difcult places that the larger brush
cannot.
The at end is a crevice tool which is perfect
for reaching small crevices and hard-to-
reach areas such as corners or down the
back of furniture.
The brush end is perfect for cleaning
upholstery, curtains and delicate areas such
as bookshelves, keyboards and window
ledges.
The oor brush can be used on both carpet
and hard oor surfaces.
For hard ooring:
Use your foot to press the pedal on the top
of the brush to let the bristles out.
For carpets:
Use your foot to press the pedal again to
retract the bristles.
The turbo brush can be used on both carpet
and hard oor surfaces.
It provides a deeper clean for carpeted
oors.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Emptying and cleaning the dust container
It is important to look after your vacuum cleaner to prolong its working life and to
keep it working optimally. We recommend that if the vacuum is used regularly,
that the sponge lter is cleaned at least once a month to ensure optimal
performance and prolong the longevity of the device.
It is important to empty the dust container regularly, particularly when the dust
inside reaches the MAX indicator on the container.
Hold the dust container with one hand
and push the release button with the
other hand.
Take the dust container to the rubbish
bin and hold the container over it.
Push the release button to open and
remove the bottom of the dust container.
Tip the dust container upside down to
empty the contents directly into the bin.
Close the dust container by securing the
lid back on top of the cup.
Put the dust container back onto the
vacuum and click back into place.
Take the dust container out of the
machine.

Please note:
• The VC7020 vacuum has two HEPA lters; one on the underside of the dust
container jug, the other on the base of the vacuum. If the vacuum is used
lightly/less often, these lters should be cleaned properly at least twice a year.
If, however, the vacuum is in frequent/heavy use, we recommend the lters
are cleaned monthly.
• If a lter becomes too dirty or clogged it can reduce the suction level of the
vacuum.
• Do not ever put a wet lter back into the vacuum; always ensure the lters
are completely dry before inserting them back into the vacuum.
Putting a wet lter into the vacuum will result in suction loss and can damage
the motor.
• Do not wash the lters in a washing machine or put them in a tumble dryer.
They are to be washed by hand and air dried only.
• Do not use hot water or detergents of any kind. Wash only in water.
• Always ensure that the lters are xed back into place properly before
using the vacuum. Do not use the vacuum without any lters inside.
Replacement lters are available for purchase separately directly from
Duronic.
