Fig.
Slide the sliding switch into the required position in
order to set the suction power:
‡
Position 1
Vacuuming with the electric brush switched on.
For routine cleaning tasks on all surfaces.
The appliance achieves the maximum run time at
this level.
‡
Position 2
Vacuuming with the electric brush switched on.
For stubborn cleaning tasks on all surfaces (carpets,
in particular).
The appliance achieves a shorter runtime at this le-
vel.
Runtime
Like every other Li-Ion battery the battery is subject
to natural wear as well. That means the battery ca-
pacity and thus runtime decrease over time. This is a
natural aging process and not the result of a material/
production failure or a product defect.
On normal mode with
electrical nozzle for
normal cleaning tasks
Turbo mode with
electrical floor nozzle or
hand-held for demanding
cleaning tasks

During short pauses in vacuuming, the appliance can
be left standing anywhere in the room. To do this, tilt
the vacuum cleaner forwards slightly in the direction
of the nozzle.
!
Caution: When the appliance is left standing, it
must be switched off because, if the brush is
turning while the appliance is standing still, it could
cause damage to the floor covering.

Emptying the dust container
In order to achieve the best possible vacuuming re-
sults, the dust container should be emptied after every
use or, at the latest, when dust at one point in the dust
container has reached the marking.
We recommend that you not fill the dust container bey-
ond the marking, as this leads to considerable soiling
of the filter.
