• WARNING: do not use the cleaner unless the dust collection contai-

ner (1) complete with the filter is fitted.

• Place the dust collection container back in the cleaner by following

the above instructions in reverse order.

Accessories can be attached directly to the flexible hose/extension tube

or to the telescopic tube (A).

Using the telescopic tube (A)

The tube is about 60 cm long when closed, about 1 m when extended

to its greatest length. To increase or decrease length, press the locking

(A1) and extend or reduce length as desired.

Use of the extension tube (B) (model AS590)

Extend the tube to its full length as follows:

• Turn the handle to release the coupling ratchet on it as shown in figu-

re 6.

• Pull the handle outwards until the tube has the desired length (fig.7)

To return the tube to its original length, press the tube retraction button

(B1) while the cleaner is running. When the tube has retracted, lock it

once again by following the above instructions in reverse order.

Using the universal brush (E)

Connect the brush to the telescopic tube. If you move the selector on

the brush (E1) and press with a foot, you can change the bristles posi-

tion without bending down. The position with bristles extended is recom-

mended for all non-carpeted floors. The position without bristles is

recommended for carpets.

Parquet brush (F)

The parquet brush is designed to clean delicate surfaces and therefore

has bristles and wheels in material specially selected to avoid damaging

such surfaces.

Turbo brush (G)

The turbo brush uses a turbine system which operates on suction power

only, without electricity.

The turbo brush increases the effectiveness and efficiency of suction on

soft furnishings such as carpets and fitted carpeting since it combines

suction with a mechanical action to remove dust and dirt (organic and

inorganic) and fibres (hair, etc.). By using the turbo-brush on carpets

you can refresh the fibres thanks to the action of the roller, which sepa-

rates them so that the cleaner can reach right down into the carpets.

The turbo brush can be used as a traditional brush on hard surfaces

since it has a by-pass system which diverts the air flow directly to the

suction pipe.

Use: Acursor on the back of the turbo brush permits you to adapt it to

any kind of surface: slide the cursor (G1) to the left for hard surfaces,

and slide it to the right for carpets and fitted carpeting. The cursor

adjusts the speed of the turbine system: when it is moved completely to

the right, the turbine works at the maximum rotation speed, while when

it is moved completely to the left there is no rotation and the brush ope-

rates as a normal floor brush.

The turbine can be easily accessed for cleaning thanks to the practical

flap (fig.8).

Multipurpose nozzle (H)

The multipurpose nozzle is recommended for cleaning upholstery sur-

faces such as the joints of sofas, armchairs, mattresses, car upholste-

ry, etc.

Lance for cleaning corners (I)

The lance (I) is recommended for thorough vacuum cleaning of hard-to-

reach spots such as skirting boards and folds in sofas, armchairs,

upholstered furniture and car upholstery.

Soft brush (L)

The soft brush has soft bristles for dusting delicate surfaces such as pic-

ture frames, books, etc.

Before putting your vacuum cleaner away, rewind the power cable by

pressing the button (8), being careful to accompany the cable during

winding.

Always make sure the appliance is unplugged before performing main-

tenance work of any kind.

This cleaner has a 5-stage filtering system.

The first stage is the dust collection container where a cyclone effect

traps the dirt at the bottom.

The container is in plastic material with Nano Silver particles. Silver is

a natural element with antibacterial properties. Nano Silver technology

provides lasting cleanliness, thanks to nano-particles of silver, which are

mixed with the other components used to make the dust collection con-

tainer. Thanks to Nano Silver technology, only clean air comes out of the

vacuum cleaner and there are no unpleasant smells.

The second stage is the ultra-fine mesh filter which has a HEPAtype fil-

ter (third filtering stage) inside it. The fourth and fifth filtering stages are

respectively the PPI filter and the active carbon filter.

Replacement and cleaning of the HEPA-type filter (12) and of the

ultra-fine mesh filter (13)

We recommend cleaning these filters after each use, with the brush

supplied (19). If they are particularly dirty, however, they can be washed

as follows:

• Remove the HEPA-type filter (12) and the ultra-fine mesh filter (13) as

instructed in the paragraph on “emptying and cleaning the dust col-

lection container”.

• Rinse both filters with running water and leave them to dry.

• Put the filters back together by following the instructions for their

removal in reverse order.

ATTENTION: make the arrow on the filter assembly (15) coincide with

the arrow on the dust collection container (1) (Fig.9).

If the filters are torn they must be replaced only with Polti original spare

parts.

Replacement and cleaning of the air inlet PPI filter (16)

• Press the container lid opening button (4) and lift the lid (3) (fig.2).

• Remove the air inlet PPI filter (16) from its holder.

• Rinse it with running water and leave it to dry.

If the filter is irreparably damaged, replace it with aPolti original spare

part.

WARNING:

• Allow the filters to dry naturally, away from light and heat sources. It

is advisable to wait 24 hours before putting the filters back in the clea-

ner.

• Do not use detergent, do not scrub the filters and do not wash them

in a dishwasher.

Replacement of the active carbon filter (14)

If the filter is torn, replace it with a Polti original spare part.

• Open the rear HEPA filter grille (10) by pressing the levers on the gril-

le itself .

• Remove the filter and put in a new one by following the instructions

given above in reverse order.

N.B.: the active carbon filter MUST NOT be washed.

The safety device may be triggered while you are using the cleaner if

excessive quantities of dust and dirt are picked up and the filters (12)

and (13) inside the container get clogged with dirt. This could cause

your cleaner to overheat and thus damage it. To solve this potential pro-

blem, the cleaner has been fitted with a safety device. This is triggered

when the filters are clogged with excessive dirt. The cleaner will there-

fore automatically switch off and the safety device indicator light (18) will

begin flashing. Proceed as follows to restart the cleaner:

• Switch off the cleaner using the ON/OFF button (7) and unplug the

power cable from the mains electricity supply.

• Clean the container and the filters as described in the paragraph on

“EMPTYING AND CLEANING THE DUST COLLECTION CONTAI-

NER”.

• The cleaner can now be used normally once again.

No earth required.

Ensure the mains voltage suits your appliance.

Fitting the mains plug important

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in

accordance with the following code:

• Blue: Neutral

• Brown: Live

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be con-

nected to the Terminal which is marked with the

letter “N” or coloured BLACK.

The wire which is coloured BROWN must be con-

nected to the Terminal which is marked with the

letter “L” or coloured RED.

It is important that the outer sheath is clamped

correctly into the 3-pin plug.

If in doubt consult your local Service Dealer or qualified electrician befo-

re the machine is used.

A13 AMP FUSE MUST BE FITTED TO THE MAINS PLUG.
