Switching the vacuum cleaner
on and off
To switch the vacuum cleaner on or off:
^ Press the On-Off switch.
Vacuuming
When vacuuming, especially fine dust,
e.g. sawdust, sand, plaster, flour, tal-
cum powder etc., electrostatic charges
build up naturally. Under certain condi-
tions these charges will be released. To
avoid the unpleasant effects of these
electrostatic discharges a metal inlay
has been incorporated into the under-
side of the handle.
^ Please make sure that you keep your
hand in constant contact with this
metal strip during vacuuming. This
way any build-up of electrostatic
charge will be rendered ineffective.
^ When vacuuming pull the cleaner be-
hind you on its castor wheels. You
can stand it upright for vacuuming
stairs and curtains etc.
