If you do not want the cable to retract
completely into the vacuum cleaner
you can stop it before it does. Take
hold of the end of the cable whilst re-
tracting it and give it a short pull just
before the end.
To switch on and off (dia. 15)
 Press the On/Off foot control .
To regulate 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 man-
oeuvre the floorhead.
The vacuum cleaner has symbols on
the controls which indicate the type of
use the settings are suitable for.
 Curtains, fabric
 Cut pile carpets, rugs and runners
 Loop pile carpet and rugs
 Hard flooring and heavily soiled
carpets and rugs (also for clean-
ing upholstery and mattresses
with the upholstery nozzle)
When using the adjustable floorhead,
if the suction seems too high, reduce
the suction until the floorhead is
easier to manoeuvre.
Depending on the model, your vacuum
cleaner will be fitted as standard with
one of the following suction power se-
lectors.
– Rotary selector
– Radio-control handle
Rotary selector (dia. 16)
 Turn the rotary selector to the suction
power setting you require.
Radio-control handle (dia. 17)
When the vacuum cleaner is switched
on with the On/Off foot control , the
suction power setting  will flash in
the vacuum cleaner display.
 Press the Standby button  on the
handle.
The suction power setting  will light
up in the vacuum cleaner display.
The first time the vacuum cleaner is
switched on, the highest setting will be
selected automatically.
After that, the vacuum cleaner will
switch on at the setting which was used
previously. This will flash.
 Press the + button on the handle to
select a higher suction power setting.
 Press the - button on the handle to
select a lower suction power setting.
To open the air inlet valve (dia. 18)
(not on models with radio-controls on
the handle or on Eco Comfort handles)
It is easy to reduce the suction power
for a short time, e.g. to prevent rugs or
other objects being sucked into the va-
cuum cleaner.
 Open the air inlet valve on the handle
far enough to reduce the suction
power.
The floorhead will be easier to man-
oeuvre.
