Floorhead (dia. 13)
For general use and also for vacuuming
stairs.
Warning: For safety reasons when
vacuuming stairs it is best to start at
the bottom of the stairs and move
upwards.
Use
Unwinding the cable (dia. 14)
^ Pull the mains cable out to the
required length (max. approx. 6.5 m).
^ Insert the plug in the socket correctly
and switch on.
Warning: If vacuuming for longer
than 30 minutes, the mains cable
must be pulled out to its fullest
extent. Otherwise there is a danger
of overheating and damage.
Rewinding the cable (dia. 15)

wall socket and unplug it.

The cable will rewind automatically.
Switching on and off (dia. 16)

Adjusting the suction power
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
manoeuvre the floorhead.
Some models also have symbols on the
controls. The symbols indicate the type
of use the settings are suitable for.
# - curtains, lightweight fabrics
$ - upholstery, cushions
% - thick pile carpets, rugs and
runners
* - for daily energy-saving vacuuming
(this setting is also very quiet)
( - loop-pile carpets
) - hard flooring and for intensive
cleaning of carpets
Warning: When using the AirTeQ
floorhead, if the suction seems too
high, reduce the suction until the
floorhead is easier to manouevre.
Rotary selector (dia. 17)
^ Turn the suction power selector
manually to the suction power setting
you require.
Opening the air inlet valve (dia. 18 +
19)
It is easy to reduce the suction power
for a short time, e.g. to prevent rugs or
other objects being sucked into the
vacuum cleaner.
^ Open the air inlet valve far enough to
reduce the suction power.
The floorhead will be easier to
manoeuvre. Close the valve when you
are ready to use full power again.
