Assembling The Appliance
Extend the chrome tube to the desired length by sliding the button and
pulling the tube apart.
To attach the flexible hose to the vacuum cleaner, push the end of the
pivoting head on the flexible hose into the attachment point on the vacuum
cleaner. Make sure that the plug is correctly inserted into the socket. To
remove the flexible hose from the vacuum cleaner, press on the two
buttons situated on the either side of the pivoting head then pull upwards to
remove it from the attachment point.
Any of the accessories could be fitted onto the end of the tubes. The floor
accessory has two positions:
Hard Floor (tiles, parquet floors, etc.) position - The cleaning tool's brush
must be in the lower position. Press on the rocker switch to lower it.
Carpet or rug position - The cleaning tool's brush should be raised. Press
the rocker switch to lift the brush up. Only the flat part of the tool is in
contact with the floor.
Pull the mains lead out to the desired length and plug it into a standard
domestic outlet. Press the foot pedal to start the vacuum cleaner. To stop
it press the pedal again.
The base body has a manual air flow regulator which allows you to briefly
alter the suction level; the more open the regulator is the weaker the
suction power. With the Variable Speed control on handle, you can choose
the power appropriate for the task. The order of usages from low to high is
as below.
1. Curtains, delicate fabrics
2. Amchairs, sofas, cushions, mattresses
3. Everyday tasks on dirty floors
4. Ordinary rugs and carpets.
Using the Accessories
Open the accessory storage compartment. There are two accessories
provided in addition to the floor brush. (i) Crevic nozzle (ii) Cornerbrush.
These accessories could be fitted on to the tubes or directly onto the end
of the flexible hose handle. The small cleaning tool is used for upholstered
furniture. The crevice nozzle is used for radiators, sklrting boards, hard to
reach corners, etc. The brush which fits onto the small cleaning tool is
used for lampshades or polished surfaces.
If you wish to pause briefly during vacuuming ie. to move a small piece of
furniture or a rug, use the special parking position on your vacuum cleaner.
Slide the hook attached to the large cleaning tool into the slot on the rear of
the appliance.
When you have finished vacuuming, press pedal to stop the appliance then
unplug it at the mains and press your foot on the pedal to automatically
rewind the cord.
You can move or store your appliance in a vertical position by sliding the
hook on the large cleaning tool into the clip on the underside of the
appliance. This practical system allows you to carry the vacuum cleaner
around in one hand and to store it in the minimum of space.
