Getting the best results
k
Carpets: Use the floor nozzle with the lever in
this position
1030
J
Hard floors: Use the floor nozzle with the lever in
this position
1030
To avoid blockages and maintain suction efficiency,
the floor nozzles should be cleaned regularly using
the hose handle.
p
Loose rugs/curtains/lightweight fabrics: Reduce
the suction power. Use the floor nozzle for loose rugs
and the upholstery nozzle for curtains, cushions etc.
r
Confined areas: Use the crevice nozzle for crevices,
corners and radiators.
Dust bag indicator and changing the dust bag
For peak performance the dust bag must be changed
when full.
1010/1020 check the dust bag regularly
and replace when necessary.
1030 the dust bag
indicator window will gradually turn red when filling
and completely red when full. If the dust bag should
accidentally get broken in the cleaner, take cleaner to
Electrolux Service Centre for cleaning.
To check the dust bag, the cleaner must be switched
on, with all attachments connected and off the floor.
The dust bag full indicator may signify that the bag is
blocked (occasionally caused by very fine dust)
which will cause loss of suction and may result in
overheating. If this occurs change the dust bag even
if it is not full.
To change the dust bag:
A Release catch and remove lid. Before removing the
dust bag, bend the tab into the hole to prevent
dust escaping.
B Remove the dust bag.
C Insert new dust bag by sliding the bag slots into
the holder. Close lid.
We recommend the dust bag is changed:
*
after using a carpet cleaning powder.
*
if there is a bad smell from the cleaner, then you
should also change the filter.
Note: use only Electrolux original dust bags
and filters:
5 Dust bags and 1 Micro filter (Ref E51)
Dust bag safety device
To avoid damaging the cleaner, do not use it without
a dust bag. A safety device is fitted which prevents
the cover closing without a dust bag. Do not attempt
to force cover shut.
Changing/Cleaning the filters
There are two filters inside your cleaner. Never use
the cleaner without the filters in place.
To clean Motor Protection filter:
The Motor Protection filter should be cleaned when
dirty.
D Release catch, remove lid and filter.
E Wash filter in warm water.
F Allow to dry and re-insert clean filter. Close lid.
To change Micro filter:
The Micro filter should be changed every fifth dust bag.
G Release catch, open the filter cover and
remove filter.
H Insert new filter and close cover.
Troubleshooting
1. Power: If the electric power does not come on,
disconnect from mains and check plugs, cable and
fuses where appropriate.
2. Blockages/dirty filters: The cleaner may switch
itself off in the event of a severe blockage or
excessively dirty filter(s). In such cases, disconnect
from mains and allow to cool for 20-30 minutes.
Clear blockage and/or replace filter(s) and restart.
The clearing of blocked hoses is not covered by the
guarantee.
3. Water: If water is sucked into the cleaner the motor
must be changed at an Electrolux Service Centre.
