Excellent service from this company (including a total refund on an earlier purchase when through no fault of the company the manual was incomplete). I have purchased several manuals which I have been very satisfied with, as I am with this one. Highly recommended.
Manual was delivered in a timely manner and was all in English as advertised. The manuals I received when we moved into our flat were in German, Italian, and French. Having never used a steamer before, and not speaking/reading German very well, I needed an English Manual. this was a huge help.
This GRUNDIG UV5A Owner Manual is not only an instruction manual but a total functional circuit description of the Multimeter and includes circuit diagram at the end pages. It is very helpful for repairing and calibrating the instrument. It is written in two languages English and German for international support. It was very easy to repair my unit with this document. Regards, Regis Pauly, Electrical Engineer.

Cleaning the floor nozzle 39 To avoid deterioration of suction power, frequently clean the carpet/ hard floor nozzle. The easiest way to clean it is by using the hose handle. 36* Press each wheel-hub and draw away the wheels. Use the crevice nozzle to clean the wheel axles. Remove dust-balls, hair or other objects that may be entangled. Replace the wheel by pressing them onto the axles. 37* Larger objects can be accessed by removing the connection hose from the nozzle (press the small catches located on each side and simultaneously draw the connection tube outwards in an upright position). 38* Remove the object(s) and replace the connection hose. Cleaning the turbo nozzle* 40 Disconnect the nozzle from the vacuum cleaner tube and remove entangled threads, etc. by snipping them away with scissors. Use the hose handle to clean the nozzle.
Troubleshooting
The vacuum cleaner does not start � Check that the cable is connected to the mains. � Check that the plug and cable are not damaged. � Check for a blown fuse. The vacuum cleaner stops � Check whether the dust bag, s-bag® is full. If so, replace it with a new one. � � Is the nozzle, tube or hose blocked? Are the filters blocked?
Cleaning the hose and nozzle
The vacuum cleaner stops automatically if the nozzle, tube, hose or filters and s-bag® becomes blocked. In such cases, disconnect from mains and allow to cool for 20-30 minutes. Clear blockage and/or replace filters and s-bag® and restart. Tubes and hoses 34 Use a cleaning strip or similar to clear the tubes and hose. 3* Hose handle could be dismantled from hose if cleaning is needed. 35 It may also be possible to remove the obstruction in the hose by squeezing it. However, be careful in case the obstruction is caused by glass or needles caught inside the hose. Note: The warranty does not cover any damage to the hose caused by cleaning it.
Water has entered the vacuum cleaner It will be necessary to replace the motor at an authorised Electrolux service centre. Damage to the motor caused by the penetration of water is not covered by the warranty.
