During vacuuming

When vacuuming fine dust, e.g.
sawdust, sand, plaster, flour, talcum
powder etc., electrostatic charges
build up naturally. Under certain con‐
ditions these charges will be re‐
leased. To avoid the unpleasant ef‐
fects of these discharges, a metal in‐
lay 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 (dia. 12).
To regulate the suction power
(dia. 13)
The suction power can be regulated to
suit the type of flooring being cleaned.
Reducing the suction power reduces
the amount of effort required to ma‐
noeuvre the floorhead.
The vacuum cleaner has symbols on
the controls which indicate the type of
use the settings are suitable for.
