Vacuum-cleaning
| Please note
- Floor nozzles are subject to a certain amount of wear, depending on the type of hard floors you have (e.g. rough, rustic tiles). You should therefore check the underside of the floor nozzles at regular intervals. Worn undersides of floor nozzles may have sharp edges that can damage delicate hard floors, such as parquet or linoleum. The manufacturer does not accept any responsibility for damage caused by worn floor nozzles.
Set the switchable floor nozzle as follows:
- Rugs and carpets =>
- Hard floors/parquet =>
If you are vacuuming up relatively large particles, make sure that you vacuum them up successively and careful ly to ensure that the floor nozzle's air intake duct does not become blocked.
If necessary, you should lift up the nozzle in order to better vacuum up the dirt particles.
