This vacuum cleaner is designed for domestic indoor use on dry surfaces. Before first use, ensure all packaging is removed and the appliance is inspected for damage. Always unplug the unit before performing any maintenance, such as emptying the dust tank or cleaning filters. If the unit stops suddenly, it may be due to the overheating protection device; unplug it, check for blockages, and allow it to cool for approximately 20 minutes.
Product Overview
The vacuum cleaner consists of the main unit, a flexible hose, a chrome telescopic tube, and a dual-function floor brush. Key controls include an On/Off pedal, a speed control knob, and a cord retraction pedal located on the back of the unit. The dust tank contains the HEPA filter and in-tank filter, while the exhaust filter is located at the back of the cylinder.
Getting Started
Ensure the vacuum is unplugged before assembly. Insert the flexible hose into the socket at the front until it locks. Attach the telescopic tube to the handle and fit the desired cleaning accessory to the end of the tube. The tube length can be adjusted by pressing the button at the centre joint.

Operation
To use the vacuum, pull the power cord out (do not exceed the red mark) and plug it into a power point. Press the On/Off pedal to start. Use the speed control knob to adjust suction power. For temporary suction reduction, use the suction control valve on the curved handle. When finished, switch off, unplug, and press the cord retraction pedal to wind the cord back in.

Cleaning and Maintenance
For consistent performance, empty the dust tank and clean the filters regularly. To empty the tank, press the release button, pull the tank out, and unclip the latch over a bin. The HEPA filter and in-tank filter can be washed under running water; ensure they are completely dry before reinstallation. The exhaust filter housing can be removed to wash the foam filter. Never use the vacuum without all filters correctly installed.



Troubleshooting
If the vacuum does not work, check the power connection, fuse, or circuit breaker. If there is a loss of suction, check for a full dust tank or clogged filters. If dust escapes, ensure the tank is installed correctly and filters are properly seated. For any other issues, contact the after-sales support line.
Technical Specifications
The vacuum operates on 220–240V, 50/60Hz with a maximum wattage of 2000W. It features a 3.5L dust tank capacity and a 5m retractable cord. The unit weighs 6.8kg and includes a dual-function floor brush and a crevice tool with a fold-out brush.
