Using dust bags

If necessary, a dust bag may be used instead of the dust
collector.

You have bought an extremely powerful device.
The highest suction setting is therefore only recommended
for heavily soiled, short-pile carpets and hard floors.
The required suction power can be selected by adjusting
the suction regulator (see Figure 9).
Low suction range:
For vacuuming delicate fabrics, e.g. curtains.
Middle suction range:
For daily vacuuming of lightly soiled floors.
High suction range:
For vacuuming durable floor coverings, hard floors and
for heavily soiled surfaces.

Replacing the dust bag

26*
Figure
If the dust bag change indicator is completely yellow
when the floor tool is lifted from the floor and the highest
suction power is selected, the dust bag must be
changed, even though it may not yet be full. In this case
it is essential to change the dust bag due to the type of
material it contains.
The nozzle, suction pipe and flexible tube must not be
blocked, as this would also lead to dust bag change
indicator being triggered.
Attention: The dust bag change indicator only
!
functions correctly in conjunction with a dust bag.

vacuum cleaner and close the dust bag compartment lid.
Care
Always switch off the vacuum cleaner and disconnect the

If necessary, the dust compartment can be cleaned with a
second vacuum cleaner or simply wiped with a dry cloth or
dusting brush.
