Switching The Powerbrush On And Off - Miele s5981 Operating Instrucctions

Vacuuming
^ When vacuuming, pull the cleaner
behind you on its wheels. You can
stand it upright for vacuuming stairs
and curtains etc.
,
When vacuuming especially fine
dust, e.g. sawdust, sand, flour,
talcum powder etc., electrostatic
charges build up naturally. Under
certain conditions these charges will
be released. To avoid the
unpleasant effects of these
discharges, a metal inlay has been
incorporated into the underside of
the handle. Please make sure that
you keep your hand in constant
contact with this metal strip during
vacuuming.
Switching the PowerBrush on
and off
The PowerBrush is switched on
separately from the vacuum cleaner by
pressing the j button on the handle.
This means that you can switch the
PowerBrush off during vacuuming and
the vacuum cleaner will continue to
operate using suction only. This is
useful when moving from vacuuming a
fitted carpet to a rug, for example.
