Installation and connection

Assembling the vacuum cleaner

(Fig. 01)
You can assemble the vacuum cleaner
in 2 different ways.
 You can place the suction wand ei-
ther above or below the PowerUnit.
Take care to assemble the vacuum
cleaner exactly as shown in the dia-
gram.
The advantages of placing the
PowerUnit at the bottom of the vac-
uum cleaner are as follows:
– secure self-standing function possible
(see "Use" – "Self-standing function for
short pauses in vacuuming")
– ergonomic (reduced strain on the
wrist)
– convenient cleaning of large surfaces
The advantages of placing the
PowerUnit at the top of the vacuum
cleaner are as follows:
– convenient cleaning underneath furni-
ture
– PowerUnit can be removed quickly
Using the PowerUnit solo (Fig. 02)
The PowerUnit can be used on its own
without the suction wand and Electro-
brush as a quick way of vacuuming up
crumbs and lint in specific areas.
Tip: This configuration is particularly
suitable when using the three-piece ac-
cessory set (see "Using the accessories
supplied").

Connecting the Comfort handle

(Fig. 03)
Depending on how you decide to con-
figure your vacuum cleaner, you can
connect the Comfort handle to either
the suction wand or the PowerUnit.
 Push the Comfort handle down on to
the suction wand connection from
above until it audibly clicks into place
(left image detail).
 Slide the Comfort handle along the
guide line on the dust container han-
dle and down on to the PowerUnit
connector from above until it audibly
clicks into place (right image detail).
 Switch off the vacuum cleaner using
the On/Off switch on the front of the
Comfort handle if you want to sepa-
rate the sections.
 Press the release catch and remove
the Comfort handle by pulling upward
(Fig. 04).
Connecting the PowerUnit and the
suction wand (Fig. 05)
Depending on how you decide to con-
figure your vacuum cleaner, the suction
wand is located either above or below
the PowerUnit.
 Slide the suction wand along the
guide line on the dust container han-
dle and down on to the PowerUnit
connector from above until it audibly
clicks into place (left image detail).
