new user or owner.
We recommend using and storing it carefully for the entire working life of the vacuum cleaner.
This manual explains how to use the equipment correctly in order to obtain the best performance
while maintaining optimal working and safety conditions.
It is strictly forbidden to reproduce, copy or disclose any part of this document by any means without

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE VACUUM CLEANER
Constant research applied to central vacuum cleaners and advanced electronic technology have al-
lowed TECNOPLUS S.r.l. to create TECNO Star Dual Power.
The central vacuum cleaner, suitable for any type of residential building (private houses, offices,
hotels, service sector), consists of a network of PVC trace pipes, housed in walls or in false ceilings
running through the various rooms; at the end of the pipes are positioned the suction sockets.
The SISTEM AIR vacuum cleaner is usually placed in a utility room, garage or other storeroom and
connected to the suction pipes network.
The system is switched on by inserting the sleeve coupling of the flexible vacuum cleaning hose in
any of the suction sockets.
If the pipe network doesn’t feature any electrical power supply, the system can be switched on and off
by means of a remote control
device (optional accessory).
The Tecno Star Dual
Power vacuum cleaner, yet
equipped with brush motors,
features innovative charac-
teristics which make it more
suitable for professional
applications. The Tecno Star
Dual Power vacuum cleaner
is run by a second-generation
electronic system that Sistem
Air applies to its vacuum
cleaners to allow a simplified
management of the cleaning
unit.

Main features of the TECNO Star Dual Power vacuum cleaner:
- Possibility of contemporary use by two operators either with two separate micro lines or with one single
micro line.
- The Tecno Star Dual Power vacuum cleaner by Sistem Air adopts an innovative control and mainte-
nance system based on an electronic control board with microchip connected to pressure sensors
and programmed to easily and immediately interact with the user. Maintenance can be individually
programmed by the user who will receive messages about the machine status directly on a user-
friendly graphic display, as well as suggestions about actions to be taken in case of malfunctioning.
Thanks to the pressure sensor, the indications shown are not mere approximations but indicate the
real conditions of the system.
- With Tecno Star Dual Power, Sistem Air has obtained a 10% consumption decrease, with no reduction
of the available vacuum cleaning power.
2.1 Distinctive product features
- “TURBO” function by means two motors on a single micro line.
