3. Assembly
Your Kleenmaid vacuum can be operated with an electric power brush (15) or parquet brush
(18). To assemble, carefully attach the brush nozzle to the vacuum cleaner through the
fitting at the bottom of the vacuum, until it locks.
The machine can be placed in an upright position when used with the electric power brush.
When locking the vacuum in the upright position, please ensure the bag housing is clicked in
place, facing forward to the centre or the unit could overturn.
Push the black end of the hose (8) into the connection on the filter cover (6). Finally, insert
the hose handle (9) into the suction opening on the side and press the hose into its place on
the side of the machine.
4. Operating Instructions
Please ensure that the on/off switch (2) is in the off position. Then turn the power cord hook
(7), release the cord (4) and plug it into the wall mains outlet. Before you start working
adjust the telescopic handle tube (3). Use the handle-catch (17) to adjust the height of the
telescopic handle tube (3). Now you can start the machine by moving the on/off switch to
the on position. Your machine is also equipped with electronic suction control.
To use the power head, press the foot pedal (16) on the rear of the power head and lower
the machine handle to an angled position. The brush motor will then turn on.

When using the hose (8) and attachments (9), keep the machine in an upright position.
The hose handle (9) can be removed from the side of the vacuum and can be used with or without
attachments. Also maintain a grasp on the machine when using the hose as it could tip if the hose
is pulled too far.
The machine can also be used without a power head or other floor tool. You can easily carry the
machine by using the carrying handle (10).
When you have finished using the machine, turn it off by moving the on/off switch (2) into the off
position. Then unplug the cord (4) and wind it onto the power cord hook (7) and handle (1).
Caution: Important instructions for the use of a power head
➔ The brush roller is off and stopped only when the machine is in an upright position (A)
and the handle is completely locked in place, or when the hose handle (9) is removed
from the side of the vacuum. If you have the machine handle at an angle, the brush
roller will spin. Leaving the machine in a stationary position for an extended period of
time while the brush roller is spinning may cause damage to your floor or carpet.
➔ Be sure not to allow carpet edges or fringing into the brush.
➔ As with any vacuum with a rotating brush, this machine could cause damage to loosely
woven carpets or rugs, wool loop carpets, long-piled carpets, or very soft, sensitive floor
coverings. Please use the Parquet Brush on these types of flooring or floor coverings.
➔ We do not recommend the use of the power head for cleaning old and valuable
hand-crafted carpets.
➔ If you have uneven flooring, the metal part underneath the machine may come in
contact with the floor, causing scratches.
➔ Please carry the machine across high thresholds.

5. Power Head
Please pay attention to the safety instructions for the power head in the operating
instructions.
The use of a power head is recommended for the optimal cleaning of carpets.
The rotating design of the swivel neck (14) allows the power head to move in any direction,
making it easily manoeuvrable around obstacles. The power head also has an adjustable
brush height and to-the-edge brush action for effective all round cleaning.
By pushing the foot pedal (16) and lowering the handle, you activate the power head and
the brush begins spinning. Failure to use the foot pedal will cause lasting damage to the
machine.

6. Selecting the Correct Brush Height
Start at setting 4 on the height adjuster (22) and adjust according to the indicator light (20 +
21). The electronic brush control constantly monitors the status of the brush, communicating
the status through the lights on top.
Green and red – The brush is not fully engaged in the carpet. The height adjustment should
be lowered. If the height adjustment is at its lowest setting, the brush is worn and needs to
be replaced.
Green light only – Brush is working well. We strongly recommend selecting a brush height
that is only one level beneath that at which both the green and red lights are on. For
maximum cleaning performance, the brush height adjustment can be lowered to its lowest
setting.
Red light only – The brush is blocked. Turn off the machine, unplug it, and then remove the
blockage (Refer to section 12 “Removing Blockages”).
To clean delicate floor surfaces the power head is equipped with an on/off switch [20].
When this switch is used to turn off the brush roller the indicator lights are also turned off.

7. Removing the Brush Roller
Always unplug the vacuum from the mains outlet before dismantling any part
of the machine.
To remove the brush roller, press the button marked "PRESS" (23) and turn the bearing (24)
downward. Turn the brush (25) slightly to the right and pull it out. We recommend to
regularly remove threads and hair, which have been wound around the brush roller.
8. Parquet Brush
The Parquet Brush (18) is equipped with a turnable swivel neck, and offers a full range of
manoeuvrability for ease-of-use and comfort. The nozzle has natural bristles that can be
easily replaced if worn.

9. Filters
When the orange bag full indicator (27) is showing, airflow is reduced. This could be because
the filter bag is full, the filters are clogged, or there may be a blockage (refer to section 12
“Removing Blockages”).
10. Changing the Filter Bag
To remove the filter bag (28), open the latch on the side of the bag housing (29). Close the
filter bag with the sealing cap (30) and lift it out. The procedure to replace the bag is
illustrated on the front of each bag. You cannot close the bag housing if the bag is fitted
incorrectly.
11. Motor Protection Filter and Exhaust Filter
The motor protection filter (31) is only accessible by removing the filter bag. Lift the motor
protection filter up by the bracket. When replacing the motor protection filter make sure that
it is pressed in position tightly. The motor protection filter should be changed when it is dirty
or at the latest, when you have used 20 filter bags.
Change the exhaust filter (11) at the same time as the motor protection filter. To do this,
carefully remove the filter retaining rings (12) and put them to the side. Next pull the
enforcement strips of the exhaust filter out of the housing slot (5) and remove the exhaust
filter from the housing.
When reassembling, please ensure the exhaust filter is fitted correctly in the housing slots and
the filter retaining rings are installed correctly.
Use only genuine Kleenmaid replacement bags and filters to ensure effectiveness
and safety. Do not wash any filters.

12. Removing Blockages
If the orange bag full indicator (27) is showing after the filter bag has been changed and the
filters are in good condition, there is possibly a blockage in the system. First, check for
suction at the end of the hose (8). If you can only feel a small amount of suction, the
blockage is in the hose.
To unblock, loosen the safety ring (32) on the lid. Remove the hose from the machine and
reverse the airflow through the hose by putting the hose handle (9) in the connecting tube of
the filter cover (6). Stretch the hose in the spot where the blockage is and open and close the
end of the hose.
Also check the suction opening, which the hose handle (9) fits into.
Note – Never clean down the hose with a stick or pointed object.
Other places to check for a blockage include the suction neck (14) of the power head and
the orange trap-door (34) on the bottom of the power head. Also check between these two
openings in the power head.
