USING THE UPRIGHT VACUUM
CLEANER (B)
Do not use the upright vacuum cleaner
without lter or dust bag because the
appliance could get damaged.
1. Unwind the power cord (18) and plug the

electrical outlet, we recommend unwinding
the entire power cord to avoid any overheating
and damage.

(13) clockwise to start the appliance.
The Eco function (if available) allows to
save 30% energy, compared with the

ensuring at the same time cleaning efcacy.
We recommend using a low suction power
on delicate surfaces to avoid any damage
(e.g. curtains, fabrics, cushions etc).

power electronic control to the Off position.
