OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

NOTICE
Always disconnect the plug out of the electrical outlet before assembling or removing accessories!

Connecting flexible hose to vacuum cleaner Insert the flexible hose into the air intake opening of the vacuum cleaner and rotate it. You will hear a click – fitting into the correct position. To remove the flexible hose, rotate in the opposite direction and remove the hose (Fig. 1).
Slider closed – more suction force.
Slider open – less suction force.
Attaching the telescopic tube to the hose extension Slide the telescopic tube onto the hose extension and turn slightly.
Extending the telescopic tube Press the plastic latch and pull the smaller tube out.
4. Attaching the floor nozzle to the telescopic tube Insert the telescopic tube into the floor nozzle and turn slightly. The flap (Fig. 2) is used to switch the floor nozzle to brushing (for smooth floors) or smooth vacuuming (for carpets).

ACCESSORIES
The following accessories are included in the package for each type of appliance:

VP8090: A, B, C (see product description)
VP8091: A, C (see product description)

USING THE VACUUM CLEANER
Before using the vacuum cleaner, make sure that the filters and dust container are correctly positioned and fixed. Unwind the appropriate cord length. The yellow mark on the power cord indicates the ideal length. Do not unwind the power cord past the red mark!

Insert the plug into the wall outlet.
Press the power switch to turn on the vacuum cleaner.
After vacuuming, turn off the appliance and unplug it from the wall outlet.
To wind the power cord, press the cord winding button with one hand and hold the power cord with the other hand to prevent it from twisting around.

CHECKING THE FULLNESS OF DUST BAG
If the dust bag full indicator is red during operation, replace the dust bag immediately.
Warning: if the suction power is low even after the dust container is emptied, there may be several reasons:

some of the air passages (hose, telescopic tube, suction opening, brush attachment or other attachments) are blocked,
the motor filter is dirty,
the air outlet filter is dirty.

Check each of these options and fix the problem before using the appliance again. If you are unable to identify the cause of the problem, take the appliance to your nearest service centre. Never use the appliance if the dust bag full indicator is completely red during operation, you could irreparably damage the motor.

MAINTENANCE

Accessories and vacuum cleaner can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Never immerse the appliance in water! Do not use aggressive substances such as solvents or abrasives for cleaning!

REPLACING THE DUST BAG

Unplug the appliance, pull the hose out of the suction opening and open the vacuum cleaner cover.
Press the bag holder flap and remove the dust bag (Fig. 3). Discard the paper or SMS bag. Be careful not to tear it during handling. Only empty and close tightly the textile bag – it can be reused.
Insert a new or emptied bag by sliding its board into the bag holder and lock it in position with the flap. The bag opening must be aligned with the opening for the vacuum cleaner hose.
Always operate the appliance only if using a dust bag! If you forget to insert the dust bag or you insert it incorrectly, the appliance motor may be damaged.
Close the cover and press it until it clicks.

REPLACING THE FILTERS

The filters should be cleaned or replaced with visible soiling or when the suction power of the vacuum cleaner drops. Check them after each use of the vacuum cleaner.
To avoid damaging the vacuum cleaner, do not use it without properly fitted filters.
Unplug the vacuum cleaner before replacing the filters.
You can purchase suitable filter types from your dealer or order from the manufacturer.

CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT OF THE MOTOR FILTER

After disconnecting the flexible hose, open the vacuum cleaner cover.
Pull the dust bag out of the holder for better access to the motor filter.
Remove the motor filter (Fig. 4). The filter can be cleaned by tapping. If heavily soiled, it can be washed in lukewarm water and left to dry properly.
Insert a clean or new motor filter into the vacuum cleaner and close the vacuum cleaner cover.

CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT OF THE AIR OUTLET FILTER

Open the air outlet grille at the back of the vacuum cleaner (Fig. 5).
Remove the air outlet filter. This filter can be cleaned by mechanical tapping and cleaning with a soft brush. A much soiled filter can be washed after this step and cleaned with a soft brush in lukewarm water without detergents. It is important to let the wet parts dry thoroughly. A wet filter would be depleted by vacuuming! Do not use a hair dryer for drying!
Note: Wet cleaning can cause more wear on the filter and thereby shortening its life.
Insert a clean or new air outlet filter into the vacuum cleaner and close the air outlet grille.
