tri-active nozzle (specific types only)
The Tri-Active nozzle is a multi-purpose nozzle for carpets and hard floors.
- The side brushes catch more dust and dirt at the sides of the nozzle
and allow you to clean better along furniture and other obstacles.
- The opening at the front of the nozzle allows you to suck up larger
particles.
1 Use the hard floor setting to clean hard floors (for instance for
tiled, parqueted, laminated and linoleumed flooring): push the rocker
switch on top of the nozzle with your foot to make the brush strip
come out of the housing. At the same time, the wheel is lifted to
prevent scratching and to increase manoeuvrability.
2 Use the carpet setting to clean carpets: push the rocker switch again
to make the brush strip disappear into the nozzle housing. The wheel
is lowered automatically.
remote control operation (specific types only)
- The remote control has three buttons with which you operate the
vacuum cleaner. With the '+' and '-' buttons you adjust the suction
power and with the standby button you switch the appliance to
standby mode.
Note: The functions on the remote control only work after you have switched
on the appliance with the on/off switch on the appliance itself.
Note: Replace the batteries when the 'infrared active light' does not light up
when you press any button. See chapter 'Replacement' to replace the batteries.
