Figure

Refit the dust collector to the vacuum cleaner,
push in the carrying handle and close the lid.

Caution: The inside of the dirt collector
may become scratched with use and start
to look opaque. This does not, however,
affect the performance of the vacuum
cleaner in any way, i.e. it will continue to
function as normal.

Cleaning the permanent filters and

microfilters

The filters must be cleaned:

After any operating malfunctions, i.e. after a
blockage is cleared.

At least every six months.

Figure

Unlock the filter holder by pressing the two
lugs in the direction of the arrow and open it.

Figure

Remove the microfilter and permanent filter
and wash them by hand.

Caution: After they have been washed by
hand, the permanent filter and the white
fleece filter should be allowed to dry for
approximately 24 hours before being used
again.

Blockages

Removing a blockage in the dust collector.

Figure

Unfasten the 4 snaplocks by pushing them in
the direction of the arrow and remove the
dust collector lid. Loosen the blockage, e.g.
with a screwdriver, and tap or vacuum it out.

(You must fit a dust bag in the vacuum
cleaner before vacuuming it out - see
Figure 26)

Figure

Replace the dust collector lid and push in the
direction of the arrow until you hear the
4 snaplocks lock into place.

Caution: The micro- and permanent filters
must be cleaned following any operating
problem (see Figure 22 and 23).

Using dust bags

If necessary, a dust bag may be used instead of
the dust collector.
Part number on the spare filter packaging:

VZ52AFG1

Figure

Open the vacuum cleaner lid (see Figure 18)

Remove the dust collector and insert a dust
bag.

Close the vacuum cleaner lid.

You have bought an extremely powerful device.
The highest suction setting is therefore only
recommended for heavily soiled, short-pile
carpets and hard floors.

The required suction power can be selected by
adjusting the suction regulator (see Figure 9).

Low suction range:
For vacuuming delicate fabrics, e.g. curtains.

Middle suction range:
For daily vacuuming of lightly soiled floors.

High suction range:
For vacuuming durable floor coverings, hard
floors and for heavily soiled surfaces.

Vacuuming

Figure

Adjusting the floor tool:

Rugs and carpets

Hard floors

Figure

Remove upholstery nozzle and crevice nozzle

from the accessories holder and separate.

Figure

Attach the nozzles to the suction pipe or

handle as required:

Crevice nozzle for vacuuming crevices and

corners, etc. (only attaches to the handle).

Upholstery nozzle for vacuuming upholstered

furniture, curtains, etc.

Figure

After use, attach the two nozzles together and

clip into the accessories holder.

Figure

You can use the parking aid on the back of
the vacuum cleaner if you wish to stop
vacuuming for a short time.
Slide the catch on the floor tool into the
groove at the rear of the appliance.

Figure

The appliance can also be carried using the
two handles when vacuuming steps, for
example.

When the work is done

Figure

Unplug the vacuum cleaner.
Tug the power cord briefly and let go. The
cable then rewinds automatically.

Figure

To store or transport the vacuum cleaner, use
the storage aid on the underside of the
vacuum cleaner.
Stand the vacuum cleaner up on its end. Slide
the catch on the floor tool into the groove on
the underside of the appliance.

You have purchased a floor vacuum cleaner
which can vacuum up any type of dry dirt using
the dust collector or dust bag.

We recommend that you use:
- the dust collector, in particular for your

hobbies, e.g. to remove wood shavings, etc.

- the dust bag principally for everyday

household cleaning.

Using the dust collector

Figure

Set the power setting to maximum for the
best results when vacuuming.
We recommend that you reduce the setting
only when vacuuming very delicate materials.

Attention: The dust bag change indicator
only functions correctly in conjunction
with a dust bag.

Emptying the dust collector

To achieve an optimal result when vacuuming,
the dust collector should be emptied each time
the vacuum cleaner is used.

Figure

Open the vacuum cleaner lid by moving the
locking lever in the direction of the arrow.

Figure

Pull out the dust collector carrying handle in
the direction of the arrow.

Remove the dust collector from the vacuum
cleaner using the carrying handle.

Figure

Open the base and empty the dust collector
by pressing the lid lock in the direction of the
arrow.

If the base is very dirty (thick dirt), clean this
first, e.g. by vacuuming it with the crevice
nozzle.

(You must fit the dust bag in the vacuum
cleaner when you do this - see Figure 26)
