suitable for the plug supplied with this

appliance, the plug should be removed and

the appropriate one fitted.

Assembly

Warning: Do not plug in the cleaner until

it is assembled.

1Carefully unpack all components.

2Lift cleaner body to upright position.

3Remove the two screws that are already

attached to the body.

4From the rear of the cleaner, align the

handle with groove and slide into the

body. If necessary, use thumb and finger

pressure to slide handle into position.

5Fasten the handle with the two screws.

Floor nozzle height

adjustment

Before using the cleaner the floor nozzle

height must be set to the correct height.

Choose the setting which most closely

matches your floor surface, ie deep carpet

pile, medium carpet pile, short carpet pile or

hard floor.

When using the attachments the cleaner

must only be used in the upright position

with the carpet height adjustment knob set

to deep carpet.

Variable power

Slide the variable power control to the

right to increase the suction power or to the

left to decrease suction. This feature is most

useful when using the hose & accessories.

Use the minimum setting when vacuuming

delicate fabrics/curtains etc. When not using

the hose it is advisable to keep the variable

slider set to maximum.

Using on carpets

1Place cleaner in its upright position.

2Set the carpet height adjustment knob to

the desired position.

3Release the mains cable by revolving the

quick release cleat through 180º and

extend the cable fully.

4Plug the cable into the mains socket.

5Step on the handle release button to

release the handle to the desired position

6Press the on/off button to the ‘on’

position.

IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to

carpets, never leave the cleaner switched on

in one place for an extended period.

•Never have the brushes set too low such

that the cleaner is hard to push.

Using attachments

Follow previous steps 1-4 but set the

carpet height adjustment knob to the deep

carpet setting.

5Remove the hose connector from the rear

of the cleaner and push the required

attachment firmly onto the end of the

hose.

•If additional length is required, attach one

or both extension tubes between the

hose and tool.

6Switch on/off.

IMPORTANT: Never over extend the hose

such that the cleaner is pulled over.

Dust bag condition

When the cleaner is switched on, if the

dust bag condition indicator is continuously

showing red (or if the suction is reduced) the

bag must be replaced and the filters

cleaned.

If it is still showing red after emptying the

dust bag and cleaning the filters, check to

see if the hose is blocked.

Changing the dust bag

1 Unplug power cable from wall socket.

2Remove the front by pressing the cover

release lever at the top.

3Remove the old dust bag by holding the

cardboard tab and pull towards you.

Remove carefully to avoid dust/dirt

spilling from dust bag and dispose.

4Take a new dust bag and fold over the

top tab at the crease. Holding the

cardboard tab, push the bag over the

opening of the dirt discharge tube until it

is seated against the rear of the

enclosure.

5The front panel will not close unless the

dustbag is correctly fitted due to the

safety bag interlock. Always check the

pre-motor and post motor filters every

time you change the dust bag.

6Once the new dust bag is in place,

replace the front panel by aligning the

bottom locking tabs with the slots in the

body, close cover slowly allowing the

front panel to snap in place. The latch

will self lock.

Changing the filters

To maintain suction, the filters must be

regularly taken out and cleaned. Failure to

clean the filters will reduce the suction and

will damage the motor if used for prolonged

periods. This may invalidate the guarantee. If

the filters become damaged they must be

replaced.

IMPORTANT: Do not operate the cleaner

without the filters in place.

1Remove the front cover of the cleaner.

2The pre-motor filter is located underneath

the bag and the exhaust filter is below

facing forward. To remove the pre-motor

filter, simply slide it forward. To remove

the exhaust motor filter, pull the locking

tab on the right and it will snap out.

3Remove the filters from their holders by

unclipping and shake vigorously over a

dustbin. The pre-motor filter may also be

washed in warm water. Do not use

detergents. The filter must be completely

dry before re-fitting. Allow filter to dry

naturally, do not overheat. The exhaust

filter is non-washable.

4Replace front cover.

Changing the brush belt

If the power brush stops rotating it is

likely that the drive belt has snapped (usually

because the brush has been stalled).

Replacement belts can be obtained from

Morphy Richards or a Service Agent.

1Disconnect the cleaner from the mains

supply.

2Place the cleaner face down in the flat

position.

3Use a cross-head screwdriver to remove

the two screws from the front bottom and

the central screw under the height

adjustment mechanism H.

4Turn the cleaner over and remove the

carpet height adjustment knob.

5Remove the two screws at the rear and

lift the rear of the cover off over the

handle release button and unclip the

cover from the front of the floor nozzle I.

6If the belt has broken, remove any loose

pieces before replacing.

7Lift the belt cover Ïoff.

8Grasp the brush at both ends and lift

straight up J.

motor shaft and the other around the

pulley end of the brush K.

11 Make sure both brush end plates Ôare

fitted.

the belt and push end into its guide slot.

13 Align brush end plates with their guide

slots and push the brush down into

place.

14 Re-fit the belt cover.

height adjustment knob back on - do not

over tighten.

cover and the three screws underneath

the floor nozzle.
