1. Release the power cord from the cord hooks (2) at the backside of 
the vacuum cleaner. Turn the lower hook so that the cord is released. 
Unwind the whole power cord . 
2. Adjust the height of the handle, by pushing at the handle lock button 
(4) and then pull or push at handle to make it comfortable to use.
3. Add the cord to the hook of the handle in order to make an anti strain 
function. Then plug-in the power cord into a electrical outlet.
4. Turn the Main Power Switch  (17) ON. “l” is ON and “O” is OFF. Now 
the vacuum motor will start.
5. Step on the Pedal (11) and then tilt the cleaner backwards. Now the 
brush motor will start (Dual-versions only). At Dual-versions the green 
light (7) at the brush housing (9) will come on to indicate that the brush 
motor is running.

6. Turn the Height Adjustment Knob (10) to adjust the height that the 
brush will operate in - depending on the material at the surface to be 
vacuumed. For carpets with short textiles the brush should in the lower 
position.  Turn the knob to the left (when you are placed in front of the 
machine) to lower the brush.  For carpets with longer textiles the brush 
should in a higher position.Turn the knob to the right (when you are 
placed in front of the machine) to set the brush at a higher level. If the 
red light comes on, slowly turn the knob in the opposite direction until 
the light goes off.
If the red light (8) stays on continuously,  there may be debris wrapped 
around the brush, during operation. At a double motor units this can 
cause the overload protector for the brush motor to trip. If this occurs, 
turn the Main Switch (17) OFF and unplug the power cord.  Remove any 
debris from the brush and plug in the power cord, turn the Main Switch 
(17) back ON. This will automatically reset the overload protector. If the 
overload protector trips repeatedly contact your dealer for service.  For 
more information of the light indicators at the Dual-versions - see the 
table below.

Change the bag whenever the “Bag Full” Light (15) comes on.  
For details of dust bag replacement see separate instruction in this 
manual. If the light comes on before the bag is full, the inside of the bag 
may be coated with very fi ne dust (change the bag), or debris may be 
built up somewhere between the brush and the bag.  

Foot pedal must be used to 
release base to 
operating/non operation 
position. Failure to do so 
could result in damage to the 
handle release  mechanism.
