To stop vacuuming, press the button again. It is advisable to set the selector to minimum power before switching on the appliance. Maximum power: recommended for heavy dirt (pebbles, soil, etc. ) on hard flooring, matting and deep-pile carpets, in corners, along edges, etc. Medium power: saves energy and reduces the noise of the appliance. It is more than enough to remove dust from hard flooring and upholstery. Minimum power: indispensable for vacuuming over light, delicate objects such as light fabric coverings, to avoid sucking up the fabric and making cleaning difficult. G PAPER FILTER MAINTENANCE The handgrip is equipped with a slide switch to let you adjust suction power. When using your appliance as a dry vacuum cleaner, replace paper filter (36) regularly. When vacuuming up particularly fine dust, for example cement, talcum powder, rubble dust, etc. , the paper or cloth filter may appear to be clean, while actually being clogged, thus reducing suction and lowering performance. In such cases, it is preferable to replace the paper filter. 20 16/28 GB 3-01-2003 10:36 Pagina 21 2.

CAUTION: When cleaning window with hot water or steam in cold weather, pre-heat glass panes with a weak jet of hot water or steam and then continue at a higher temperature setting to avoid breakage due to sudden changes in temperature.
