IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS VACUUM CLEANER.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fi re, electric shock, or injury:

• Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

• Do not leave vacuum cleaner when plugged in. Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord when not in use and

before servicing.

• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.

• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If vacuum cleaner is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left

outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center before using.

• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do

not run vacuum cleaner over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

• Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.

• Turn off all controls before unplugging.

• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Do not handle plug or vacuum cleaner with wet hands.

• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that

may reduce airfl ow.

• This vacuum cleaner creates suction and contains a revolving brush roll. Keep hair, loose clothing, fi ngers, and all parts

of body away from openings and moving parts.

• Do not place cleaner on furniture or stairs as the brush roll may cause damage. Place cleaner on fl oor with the handle in

storage position while using attachments.

• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

• Do not use without dust bag in place.

• Belt pulleys can become hot during normal use. To prevent burns, avoid touching the belt pulley when servicing the drive belt.

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

• Do not use to pick up fl ammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline, or use in areas where they may be present.

• Store your cleaner indoors in a cool, dry area.

• Keep your work area well lighted.

• Unplug electrical appliances before vacuuming them.

PLEASE SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

The brush in the cleaning head rotates at high speed and can cause damage to the mains supply cable if the cleaner passes

over it during cleaning operations.

Care should be taken to ensure that this does not happen. If the cleaning head has accidentally passed over the mains supply cable

the following action should be taken:

1. Switch off and remove the plug from the socket outlet.

2. Examine the mains supply cable for damage (only after removing the plug from the socket outlet).

3. If there is any sign of damage to the supply cable it MUST be renewed. The repair MUST be carried out by an Electrolux Service

Agent or a similar qualifi ed person.

4. NEVER use the machine with a damaged mains supply cable.

Proprietary carpet conditioning and air freshening ma te ri als

After using proprietary carpet conditioning powders, it is recommended that the fi lters be changed. Some of these preparations contain

sub stanc es which if left in the vacuum cleaner for extended periods could damage the plastic mouldings which form the structure of

the cleaner.

Many air fresheners, household deodorants, sprays and polishes contain a highly fl am ma ble gas propellant.

Because of this, it is particularly important that these products are used strictly in ac cord ance with the relevant manufacturer’s

instructions.

It is essential that none of the above products are sprayed directly into the vacuum cleaner or any of its fi lters, hose assembly, dustbag

chamber or dust cup.

Thermal Cut Off

This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the cleaner in case of motor overheating. If the cleaner switches off, push the

switch pedal once and unplug the cleaner. Check the cleaner for a possible source of overheating such as a full dust cup, a blocked hose or

clogged fi lter. If these conditions are found, fi x them and wait at least 60 minutes before attempting to use the cleaner. After the 60 minute

period, plug the cleaner back in and push the on/off switch On (I). If the cleaner still does not run, please call Electrolux Customer Care.

BEFORE YOU START

CHECK THE VOLTAGE

Before connecting the cleaner to an electrical supply, ensure that the voltage shown on the rating plate located beneath the cleaner

is of the correct voltage for your electricity supply. If it is not, do not use the cleaner but refer back to your dealer.

CONNECTING TO YOUR ELEC TRIC I TY SUPPLY

Permanently connected to the clean er is a mains supply (2-core) cable fi tted with a non-rewirable plug incorporating a 13A fuse.

In the event of the fuse requiring replacement the fuse cover should be re moved using a small screw driv er. The old fuse MUST be

re placed by a 13A ASTA ap proved BS1362 fuse or a BSI approved fuse. The cover must be re placed before the plug is used again.

In the event of loss of the fuse cover, re place ments can be obtained from your Electrolux Retailers and must be of the same colour as

indicated by the col oured insert on the base of the plug.

If diffi culty is ex pe ri enced in ob tain ing a replacement, con tact Electrolux Customer Services on 08706 055055.

In no circumstances must the plug be used without a correct fuse cover fi tted.

If the plug that is fi tted to your appliance is not suitable for your socket outlet, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fi tted.

Remove the fuse from the cut off plug.

The cut off plug should then be dis posed of to prevent the hazard of shocks in case it should be plugged into a 13 amp socket in

another part of your home.

The wires in the mains cable of this appliance are coloured in ac cord ance with the following code: Blue: Neu tral. Brown: Live.

As the colours of the wires in the mains cable of this appliance may not correspond with the col oured markings iden ti fy ing the terminals

in your plug, proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured blue must be con nect ed to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.

The wire which is coloured brown must be con nect ed to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

If using a three-pin plug, do not make any con nec tion to the terminal marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or col oured green

or green-and-yellow. This cleaner is dou ble in su lat ed and no earth con nec tion is nec es sary.

It is in your interest to ensure that the plug is correctly attached to the mains cable. In case of doubt, consult a qualifi ed elec tri cian, as

Electrolux cannot regard the repair of faults on the plug connection as a service that can be given free of charge under the terms of

the guarantee.

The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as household waste.

Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By

ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and

human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. For more detailed informa-

tion about recycling of this product, please contact your local city offi ce, your household waste disposal service or the shop

where you purchased the product.

SERVICE

Should you require service on your Electrolux cleaner, please telephone Electrolux on 08706 055055. Before requesting

service, please check whether your problem is covered under Service Checklist (see below).

New fi lter pads, dust bags, brush rollers and drive belts can be obtained from Electrolux Retailers. If diffi culty is experienced

in obtaining spares, please contact Electrolux on 08706 055055.

SERVICE CHECKLIST

• If your cleaner will not operate, check the plug connection, plug fuse and mains fuse.

• Never allow the dust bag to become so full that it impedes the air-fl ow, thus reducing the cleaning effi ciency of the

machine. The character of household dust and its effect on the air-fl ow through the machine may vary considerably.

Fluffy dust allows air to pass through readily whereas fi ne powdery dust or proprietary cleaning powders, pack tightly in

the dust bag, offering greater resistance to air-fl ow and will reduce cleaning effi ciency if the bag becomes overloaded.

Always ensure that you have a spare genuine Electrolux dust bag.

• Always store your cleaner and spare dust bags/fi lters in a dry place.

• Renew the fi lter pads three or four times a year. This is essential to ensure continued high fi ltration of dust particles.

• Sucking up such items as stockings, clippings of cloth, sizeable pieces of paper, wrappings from cigarette packets

or sweets etc., may block the hose. Electrolux regrets that the clearing of blocked hoses cannot be regarded

as service that can be given free of charge, under the guarantee. Should a blockage occur, fi rst disconnect the

cleaner from the electricity supply, refer to section headed “Blockages”. If these operations are not successful, contact

us on 08706 055055.

• Never pick up hot cinders or lighted cigarette ends.

• Make certain that your cleaner does not come into contact with water or any other liquid. It is not designed

as a wet pick up cleaner, and must never be used on damp carpets or wet fl oors.

Important - in the event of the mains supply cable of this vacuum cleaner requiring replacement, we recommend that

this be carried out by Electrolux Service Staff.

Spares

New fi lters, dust bags, brush rollers and drive belts can be obtained from Authorised Electrolux Dealers and electrical retailers.

If diffi culty is experienced in obtaining spares please call us on 08706 055055.

moving part (such as the revolving brush). Turn

off the switch and unplug the cleaner before

changing the cleaner height setting.

The front of the cleaner has an adjustment that raises or

lowers the cleaner base to match the type of carpet. With the

cleaner cord unplugged, set the adjustment to lowest setting

for maximum cleaning. If the cleaner is diffi cult to push, move

adjustment to next highest setting until cleaner is comfortable to

push. The brush roll bristles must reach the carpet for effective

cleaning.

NOTE: For ease in moving the adjustment knob, place

handle in operating position and tilt cleaner back

to remove weight from front wheels.

HOW TO MAINTAIN

The instructions in this booklet serve as a guide to routine maintenance. To avoid unnecessary service calls, check the bag,

belt, and brush roll often.

Brush Roll

The brush roll turns as it sweeps and combs the carpet nap. Remove hair and threads from the brush roll so it continues

brushing the carpet. To maintain the most effi cient cleaning, the bristles must touch the carpet. To test the bristle length, hold

a ruler against the underneath side of the cleaner. If the bristles no longer touch the ruler, replace the brush roll.

Brush Roll Belt

The brush roll belt turns the brush roll to agitate, sweep, and comb the carpet nap. Check the belt regularly to be sure it is

in good condition. Replace the belt if it stretches, cracks or loses tension. Cut away any hair or threads wound around the

brush roll or the belt pulley because the buildup could cause the belt to rotate unevenly.

How To Replace Brush Roll Belt

NOTE: Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord before replacing belt. Belt pulleys can become hot during

normal use. To prevent injury, avoid touching the motor pulley when checking the belt.

1. Lower handle to fl oor to change belt. Turn cleaner over

so the bottom of the powerhead is facing up.

2. Remove two screws to release hood.

6. Remove and discard old belt.

3. Hold powerhead together and turn over with hood side

up.

4. Remove height adjustment knob. You may need to pry

up with the end of a screwdriver.

5. Lift hood up off of powerhead.

7. Place belt around brush roll pulley.

Insert

8. Place belt around brush roll pulley. Align right end cap

with square in base. Push end cap into place; see right

side view.

9. Pull left side of brush roll to stretch belt. Secure left

end cap in base. Roll brush roll to seat belt.

10. Replace hood. Make sure hood front is behind

furniture guard on front of base. Replace carpet height

adjustment knob. Hold hood and power head together

and fl ip over. Replace and tighten screws. See previous

page.

Use GENUINE Elextrolux Replacement Parts.

Disposable Dust Bag/Reusable Cloth

Bag (on some models) and Filters

The disposable dust bag/reusable cloth bag plays a very

important role in the effi ciency of a vacuum cleaner. The

purpose of the bag is to trap dirt. As the bag traps dirt, it

must also be porous enough to allow air to pass on through.

If the bag becomes clogged, no air can pass through the

cleaner and no cleaning can take place regardless of how

powerful the unit. Change the bag and check the fi lters

frequently. Some fi ne particles can restrict airfl ow very

quickly and will decrease performance even before the bag

appears to be full.

When vacuuming carpet fresheners or cleaners, powder,

plaster dust, or similar fi ne substances, the bag and fi lters

may require more frequent maintenance.

Bag Change Indicator (only for models with

a Bag Change Indicator)

Some models feature a Bag Change Indicator to remind you

to change the bag. The indicator on the bag cover moves

into the window as the airfl ow through the bag decreases.

Certain types of fi ne particles like powder, plaster dust,

or fi ne road dust can restrict airfl ow very quickly. The fi ne

particles will decrease performance even before the bag

appears to be full. Change the dust bag to restore maximum

performance.

Be sure to use GENUINE ELECTROLUX bags for best

performance. If a clean dust bag does not restore maximum

performance, check for obstructions in the hose or airfl ow

passage.
