Thermal Cut-out Device

If the dust container and filters are not cleaned on a regular basis, the vacuum cleaner may overheat, which will cause the thermal cut-out device to activate due to restricted flow of air around the unit. If the vacuum cleaner cuts out, press the power button to turn it off and unplug it from the mains power supply. Proceed to empty the dust container, clean all of the filters and allow the vacuum cleaner to cool for approx. 1 hour.

Care and Maintenance

Always unplug the vacuum cleaner from the mains power supply before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.

Wipe the external surface of the vacuum cleaner with a soft, damp cloth and allow to dry thoroughly.

Do not use any harsh or abrasive detergents or cleaning agents to clean any part of the vacuum cleaner.

Clean the filters after every removal of the dust container.

Remove the cyclonic cone to clean the inside of the dust container.

Dos and Don'ts

Do:

• Check that the filters are kept clear of obstruction.
• Make sure that the dust container and filters are cleaned regularly to preserve suction and to prolong the life of the vacuum cleaner.

Instructions for Use

Before First Use

• Before using the vacuum cleaner for the first time, clean it with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
• Do not immerse the vacuum cleaner in water or any other liquid.

Assembling the Pet Plus+ Multicyclonic

Before fitting any accessories into the air inlet, check that the vacuum cleaner is disconnected from the mains power supply.

STEP 1: Fit the dust container

Push the dust container onto the vacuum cleaner main unit, aligning the indent on the base of the dust container with the knob on the unit.

STEP 2: Attach the suction hose

Insert the suction hose lock into the air inlet.

STEP 3: Remove the suction hose

Simultaneously push both locking tabs and pull the suction hose lock firmly away from the air inlet.

Using the Telescopic Extension Tube

The crevice/brush tools and the turbo pet brush both fit onto the telescopic extension tube to help to reach into confined spaces, such as behind radiators or underneath car seats.

STEP 1: Fit the telescopic extension tube

Push the large opening of the telescopic extension tube over the end of the suction hose neck.

STEP 2: Attach the chosen attachment

Push the chosen attachment onto the end of the telescopic extension tube.

STEP 3: Adjust the length

Press the telescopic extension tube button down and slide the inner tube in or out to adjust to the required length.

STEP 4: Lock the length

Release the telescopic extension tube button to lock the telescopic extension tube into position at the selected length.

Using the Floor Brush

STEP 1: Attach the floor brush

Push the floor brush onto the end of the telescopic extension tube or the suction hose neck (if the telescopic extension tube is not being used).

STEP 2: Select floor type position

Press the switch forwards or backwards. Switching it forwards lifts the brushes for use on carpet and switching it backwards lowers the brushes for cleaning hard floors.

STEP 3: Connect to power

Carefully pull out the power supply cord until it is at a suitable length; do not exceed the red mark. Plug it into the mains power supply.

STEP 4: Turn on/off

Turn on the vacuum cleaner by pressing the power button. Press the power button again to switch it off.

Note: Open the air valve on the floor brush when vacuuming carpets.

Using the Crevice/Brush Tool

The crevice/brush tool is a 2 in 1 attachment with a rotating head that can be used as either a crevice tool for removing dust and dirt from folds in fabrics, radiators, corners, recesses and other places that are hard to reach, or as a brush tool that is perfect for cleaning shelves, cupboards and windowsills.

STEP 1: Attach the tool

Push the crevice/brush tool onto the end of the telescopic extension tube or the suction hose neck if the telescopic extension tube is not being used.

STEP 2: Select mode

Rotate the head until the desired brush or crevice tool is selected.

STEP 3: Turn on/off

Turn on the vacuum cleaner by pressing the power button; press the power button again to switch it off.

Note: Do not use the suction hose neck without an accessory attached.

Using the Turbo Pet Brush

The turbo pet brush is perfect for removing pet hairs from carpet or upholstery. The removable head can be fitted onto the turbo pet brush to help to lift embedded, difficult-to-remove pet hairs.

STEP 1: Attach/detach removable head (if required)

If required, place the removable head over the end of the turbo pet brush and secure it by gently pushing until the two tabs click into place. If not needed, detach the removable head by pushing down on the two tabs and lifting it firmly away from the turbo pet brush.

STEP 2: Attach the turbo pet brush

Push the turbo pet brush onto the end of the telescopic extension tube or the suction hose neck if the telescopic extension tube is not being used.

STEP 3: Turn on/off

Turn on the vacuum cleaner by pressing the power button; press the power button again to switch it off.

Warning: Do not use the turbo pet brush on pets.

After Use

• STEP 1: Turn off the vacuum cleaner by pressing the power button.
• STEP 2: Switch off and unplug the vacuum cleaner from the mains power supply.
• STEP 3: Press and hold the cord rewind button until the power supply cord has completely wound back into the cable drum.
• STEP 4: The vacuum cleaner can be stored compactly by clipping the telescopic extension tube to the back of the vacuum cleaner. This will keep the floor brush horizontal and the unit stable.

Warning: Hold onto the plug to guide the power supply cord back into the vacuum cleaner. Failure to do so may cause damage to the vacuum cleaner or injury to the user.

Cleaning the Turbo Pet Brush

After regular use, the turbo pet brush may become clogged by pet hair and other debris. To maintain optimum performance, it needs to be cleaned frequently.

• STEP 1: Remove the turbo pet brush from the telescopic extension tube or suction hose.
• STEP 2: Detach the removable head by pushing down on the two tabs and lifting it away from the turbo pet brush.
• STEP 3: Unscrew the locking ring from the turbo pet brush air inlet by rotating it in an anticlockwise direction. This will provide access to the brush bar, belt and impeller.
• STEP 4: The brush bar and impeller can now be lifted out of the turbo pet brush, allowing for any built-up debris to be removed.
• STEP 5: Once the turbo pet brush has been cleaned thoroughly, replace the brush bar, checking that the belt is attached correctly and that the spindle end of the impeller is correctly aligned with the corresponding slot on the brush bar.
• STEP 6: Reattach the top back onto the turbo pet brush, aligning the locking tabs at the front first, and then pushing the bottom into position to secure.
• STEP 7: Screw the locking ring back into position by rotating it in a clockwise direction on the turbo pet brush air inlet.

Note: Take care when clearing the turbo pet brush due to the number of small parts. Keep the turbo pet brush free from a build-up of dust and dirt. Clean the turbo pet brush bar on a regular basis.

Emptying the Dust Container

Before emptying the dust container, switch off and unplug the vacuum cleaner from the mains power supply. It is recommended to empty the dust container outdoors.

• STEP 1: Whilst securely holding the vacuum cleaner main unit, remove the dust container by pushing the dust container release catch and pulling the dust container away.
• STEP 2: Holding the dust container over a bin or refuse bag, pull the dust container base release clip to open the dust container. Empty the dust container slowly and carefully to reduce the amount of dust released back into the atmosphere. Shake the dust container gently to dislodge any stubborn dust.
• STEP 3: To close the dust container, push the base closed and secure the dust container release catch back into position.
• STEP 4: Replace the dust container by pushing it into the vacuum cleaner main unit, aligning the latch with the indent.

Warning: Do not use the vacuum cleaner if the dust container is filled past the max. fill mark, as this could damage the vacuum cleaner or cause injury to the user.

Cleaning the Dust Container, HEPA Filter and Mesh Filter

The filters can only be accessed when the dust container has been removed. The cyclonic cone can be removed from the dust container to make cleaning easier.

• STEP 1: Empty the dust container following the instructions in the section entitled 'Emptying the Dust Container'.
• STEP 2: Once the dust container is empty, close it.
• STEP 3: Holding the handle, rotate the dust container cover in an anticlockwise direction.
• STEP 4: Pull the dust container lid release catch and lift the lid up.
• STEP 5: Remove the HEPA filter and the mesh filter.
• STEP 6: Shake off the HEPA filter and mesh filter until the majority of the dust has been removed, then wash them under clean, warm water and allow to dry thoroughly.
• STEP 7: Clean the cyclonic cone by rinsing with warm water. Allow to dry thoroughly.
• STEP 8: Wash the dust container in clean, warm water and allow to dry thoroughly.
• STEP 9: Once all of the parts have dried fully, reinsert the cyclonic cone into the dust container, aligning the slots on the unit, and then insert the HEPA filter and mesh filter back on top.
• STEP 10: Replace the dust container cover and lock back into place by rotating it in a clockwise direction.

Note: If the dust container, cyclonic cone, HEPA filter and mesh filter are not cleaned regularly, the thermal cut-out device will activate. For further details, see the section entitled 'Thermal Cut-out Device'.

Warning: Do not clean the HEPA filter and mesh filter using detergent. Always allow the HEPA filter and mesh filter to air dry; never use external heat sources, such as a radiator to dry them. Do not wring or twist the HEPA filter or mesh filter as this will cause damage. Do not use the vacuum cleaner without any of the filters or the cyclonic cone in position, as this could cause damage.

Cleaning the Exhaust HEPA filter

The exhaust HEPA filter is located behind the right wheel on the vacuum cleaner main unit.

• STEP 1: To remove the exhaust HEPA filter for cleaning, rotate the removable hub cap in an anticlockwise direction and pull it away from the wheel.
• STEP 2: Remove the exhaust HEPA filter from the exhaust HEPA filter housing.
• STEP 3: Shake off the exhaust HEPA filter until the majority of the dust has been removed, then wash it under clean, warm water and allow to dry thoroughly.
• STEP 4: Once the exhaust HEPA filter has dried fully, slot it back into the exhaust HEPA filter housing and replace the removable hub cap, locking it back into place by rotating it in a clockwise direction.

Warning: Do not clean the exhaust HEPA filter using detergent. Always allow the exhaust HEPA filter and mesh filter to air dry; never use external heat sources, such as a radiator to dry them. Do not wring or twist the exhaust HEPA filter as this will cause damage. Do not use the vacuum cleaner without any of the filters or the cyclonic cone in position, as this could cause damage.

Storage

The floor brush can be positioned into the storage clip for easy storage.

Check that the vacuum cleaner is cool, clean and dry before storing in a clean, dry place.

Troubleshooting

Symptom: The suction is poor.

Possible Cause:

• The telescopic extension tube, floor brush, crevice/brush tool, pet turbo brush or air inlet is blocked.
• The dust container is almost full.
• The filters are blocked.

Solution:

• Disconnect the attachment and clear the blockage.
• Empty the dust container following the instructions in the section entitled 'Emptying the Dust Container'.
• Clean the filters following the instructions in the section entitled 'Cleaning the Dust Container, HEPA Filter and Mesh Filter' and 'Cleaning the Exhaust HEPA filter'.

Symptom: The vacuum cleaner has cut out or stopped working.

Possible Cause:

• The thermal cut-out device has activated due to restricted air flow, and has cut power to the motor to protect the vacuum cleaner.

Solution:

• Switch off and disconnect the vacuum cleaner from the mains power supply. Empty the dust container and clean the HEPA filter, exhaust HEPA filter and mesh filters. Allow the vacuum cleaner to cool for approx. 1 hour.
