Protecting the environment
Do not simply throw away packaging material and old appliances.
Equipment packaging:
• The cardboard packaging can be deposited at a waste paper recycling point.
• Deposit the recyclable polyethylene (PE) bag at a PE recycling point.
Recycling the appliance at the end of its life:
• The plastic components all carry a material identification marking so that, like the other materials, they can be recycled at the end of the life of the appliance.
Please ask your local authority about your local recycling centre.

• The mains circuit for the socket used must be protected with a fuse with a rating of at least
10 A.
• Never remove the mains plug from the socket by pulling on the cable.
• Do not use the appliance if:
– the cable is damaged.
– the housing shows visible signs of damage.
• Avoid running over the mains lead with the appliance or the vacuum brush. The insulation could be damaged.

• Toner dust from laser printers and copiers must not be vacuumed using normal household vacuum cleaners.
• This is a domestic vacuum cleaner and should only be used to vacuum dry dust. People and animals must not be vacuumed using the appliance.
Keep children away from electrical appliances.
• The manufacturer is not liable for any damage caused by incorrect use or operation.
• Leave wet shampooed carpets to dry completely. Otherwise the vacuum cleaner will be damaged. Such action might also reduce protection against electric shock.
• Do not vacuum matches, glowing ashes or cigarette ends using the appliance. Avoid picking up hard, pointed objects as these may damage the appliance or the paper filter.

Preparing the vacuum cleaner for use
The accessories can be connected by pushing and twisting, and can be disconnected by pulling them apart and twisting.
Connecting the suction hose and suction tube.
Join the suction hose handle firmly to the suction tube.
Attaching the suction hose
Insert the suction hose connector in the suction inlet. It locks in place and can be rotated all the way around.
Press the release button and pull out the connector in order to remove the suction hose.
Connecting the suction tubes
Join the two tubes.
Mains connection/Cable rewind
The mains cable is in the cable compartment.
Pull out the cable and insert the plug into the mains socket. Remove plug from the mains socket. Press the foot button; the cable rewinds automatically when vacuuming has been completed.
Adjust the Telescopic Tube
(depending on model)
Push down the button on the tube and adjust the tube to the desired working position.
12
Using the nozzles
The nozzles may be attached to the suction tube or the handle on the suction hose, depending on requirements.
Using the floor nozzle*
For the daily care of carpets and hard floors.
Without being changed over manually, the floor nozzle is entirely suited for daily vacuuming of carpets and hard floor surfaces such as parquet, tiles, linoleum, etc.
Crevice nozzle
For vacuuming crevices, gaps and corners.
Using the floor nozzle*
For the daily care of carpets and hard floors. The floor nozzle may be changed over manually. The brushes can be extended for smooth floors and retracted for carpets.
Upholstery nozzle
For vacuum cleaning all upholstered furniture, mattresses, etc.
The thread lifting strips on the nozzle even pick up thread and lint.
Crevice and upholstery nozzle stored in the appliance
For specific cleaning requirements, two additional parts are included with the vacuum cleaner in an integrated accessories compartment*. Open the compartment by pressing gently as shown in the figure.

Switching on
Switching on and off
You can switch the appliance on and off by pressing the On/Off button.
Maintenance and cleaning
Prior to maintenance or cleaning, ensure that the appliance is switched off and that the mains plug has been removed from the socket:
Power adjustment:
Power adjustment - Rotary control*
The suction power can be varied to suit individual vacuuming requirements using the electronic power adjuster.
Changing the paper filter
The paper filter must be replaced if the window on the filter replacement indicator is completely red when the appliance is operating at maximum power and the nozzle is raised from the floor.
The paper filter should be replaced even if it does not appear to be full because fine dust can block the pores in the surface of the filter.
Power adjuster – Secondary air regulator*
Using the regulator on the handle, you can reduce the suction power, e.g. when vacuuming light items (net curtains, rugs). The wider you open the regulator, the lower the suction power at the nozzle becomes
The cover can be opened by pressing the button and folding back until it locks.
Hygienic filter change: When removing the full filter bag, pull the closing tab to automatically close the opening. There will be slight resistance when the tab is pulled.
14
Bags full of normal household dust may be disposed of with household waste.
Insert the new paper filter as far as it will go in the guide rails; only then can the lid be closed.
The cover cannot be closed unless a paper filter has been inserted. Please do not use force!
Changing the microfilter
We recommend replacing the microfilter at each fifth paper filter replacement, and at the latest when there is a clean dust bag and the dust level indicator is completely red with the nozzle raised.
Cleaning
As required, wipe the housing and the paper filter compartment with a damp cloth. Do not use any scourers or any solvents. Occasionally vacuum the floor nozzle and brush-heads with the crevice nozzle.
Paper filter
Progress P60
Carrying and Storage
Open the lid and fold up. Remove the used microfilter by means of the clean hygienic tabs
(figure) and dispose of it with the household waste. Insert the new microfilter and close the cassette.
To make the appliance easier to store and carry, slide the floor nozzle into the tool rail.
HEPA filter
A highly effective special filter belonging to
Class “S”. This filter offers relief and assistance to allergy sufferers. The HEPA filter should be replaced after one year.
HEPA filter – further supplies available from
Progress customer service.
Parking System
For storing the suction pipe and nozzle during short pauses in vacuuming. The bracket on the nozzle is slid into the parking rail on the appliance.
15
What do I do, if ...
... it is difficult to push the nozzle
Reduce the power setting on the appliance. This will not reduce cleaning efficiency.
... the motor thermal cut-out is activated
If the motor is overloaded, e.g. due to a full filter bag or blocked accessory, the thermal cutout shuts down the motor. In this case, switch off the appliance, unplug from the mains, and leave the motor to cool down.
Check paper filter bag, suction tube and suction hose; remove any blockage.
The appliance can be switched on again after approximately 30 minutes.
... the fuse has blown
The fuse may blow if you use other electrical appliances with high power consumption on the same electric circuit at the same time as the vacuum cleaner is in use.
This can be avoided if you set the electronic power adjuster to the lowest power level and then select a higher level after switching the appliance on.
Your vacuum cleaner can be fitted with a gentle start-up control which reduces the starting current to the motor and therefore prevents the electric circuit cut-out being triggered under normal conditions. It is possible that there will be a delay of about 4 seconds in the appliance starting up on the lowest power level.
… the paper filter is damaged at some stage and the HEPA filter is dirtied
Remove the HEPA filter, clean (tap out) and replace.
Insert new paper filter.
