To prevent you from being exposed to
risks, vacuum cleaner repairs and the
fitting of replacement parts must only
be carried out by the authorised after-
sales service.
The vacuum cleaner should be
protected from moisture and sources
of heat.
Switch off the vacuum cleaner when it
is not in use.
At the end of its life, the vacuum
cleaner should be disposed of in an
appropriate manner.
Disposal information
Packaging
The packaging is designed to protect
the vacuum cleaner from being
damaged during transport.
It is made of environment-friendly
materials and can be recycled.
Dispose of unneeded packaging at
recycling stations.
Used vacuum cleaners
Used vacuum cleaners still contain
many recyclable materials.

cleaners to your retailer or recycling
centre so that they can be recycled.
For current disposal methods, please
enquire at your appliance dealership or
local council.
!
Please note
The mains socket must be protected
by a 16A fuse.
If a fuse should be tripped when you
switch on the vacuum cleaner, this
may be because other electrical
appliances which have a high current
draw are connected to the same
power circuit.
To prevent the fuse from tripping,
select the lowest power setting before
switching the vacuum cleaner on, and
increase the power only once it is
running.

The vacuum cleaner you have bought is very powerful. Therefore we recommend that
you only use the maximum power setting for heavily soiled pile carpets or hard floors.
The suction power controller can be used to set any suction power required.
Low suction range:
For vacuuming delicate fabrics, e.g. curtains.
Middle suction range:
For daily vacuuming of lightly soiled floors.
High suction range:
For vacuuming durable floor coverings, hard floors and heavily soiled surfaces.
You have purchased a floor vacuum cleaner which can
be used to vacuum up every kind of dry dirt, even
using a dust bag.
Part number on the spare filter packaging: VZ52AFG1
Open the vacuum cleaner lid.
Remove the dust collector and insert a dust bag.
Close the vacuum cleaner lid.

Attention: The dust bag change indicator only
works correctly in conjunction with a dust bag.
Open the lid by moving the locking lever in the
direction of the arrow.
Seal the dust bag by pulling the locking tab and then
remove it.
If the dust bag change indicator is completely yellow
when the floor tool is lifted from the floor and the
highest suction power is selected, the dust bag must
be changed, even though it may not yet be full. In this
case, a bag change is necessary due to the type of
material being collected. The nozzle, suction pipe and
flexible hose must not be blocked, as this causes the
dust bag change indicator to come on.
Slide the new dust bag into the holder to the stop.
Attention: The dust bag compartment lid will only
close when a dust bag or cloth filter or dust
collector is fitted.

If your vacuum cleaner is equipped with a Hepa filter,
this should be replaced once a year.

Replacing the dust bag
Always switch off the vacuum cleaner and disconnect the power cord from the mains

The vacuum cleaner and plastic accessories can be cleaned with a commercial plastics
cleaner.
Do not use abrasive, glass or all-purpose cleaners.
Never immerse the vacuum cleaner in water.
The dust compartment can, if necessary, be cleaned with a second vacuum cleaner or
simply wiped with a dry cloth or a duster.
