Fitting and storing
The handle with the grip and the cable
hook (2b) are fitted to the handle as
shown in the figure on page 2.
Fit the stick to the vacuum cleaner and
fix it on tightly using the enclosed
screw (14).
After use, wind the cable around the
hooks on the stick as illustrated in
fig. 1. The vacuum cleaner is best
stored leaning against or hung up on a
wall, in a cupboard or similar. In the
upper hook on the handle is a hole in
which the cleaner can easily be hung
up (see fig. 2).
Use
Use the handheld appliance in the
floor unit for cleaning carpets or floors
(see Figure 3).
When cleaning furniture, tables or car
seats, detach and use the handunit
only (see fig. 4).
Note! The brush is fitted with auto-
matic motor protection which trips if
the rotating brush becomes blocked.
This is shown by the operation lamp
(15) on the nozzle going out.
The problem can be remedied by:
0turning off vacuum cleaner and
0remove whatever is blocking the brush
and
0then press the reset button (16) on the
nozzle.
The vacuum cleaner is then ready to be
used again.

0Important! Make sure the equipment
is unplugged. Always turn the vacuum
cleaner off before attempting to clean

ter.
Hint: You can use your ordinary
vacuum cleaner to clean the filter. If
necessary, wash the filter in lukewarm
soapy water, rinsing throughly after-
wards. Make sure the filter is comple-
tely dry before fitting it in the
dustcontainer.
0Put the filter back into the dustcontai-
ner and snap it back into position.
