Safety instructions
• The supply voltage must be the same
as the operating voltage (see rating
plate on underside of vacuum cleaner)!
• The circuit for the socket used must
be protected with a fuse of at least 10 A.
• Before maintenance or cleaning or
before connecting additional
appliances, ensure that the appliance
is switched off and unplugged from
the mains supply.
• Never use the flex to pull the mains
plug out of the plug socket.
• Do not operate the appliance if:
- the flex is damaged
- the housing shows visible signs of
damage.
• Avoid running over the supply lead
with the appliance, suction brush, or
electric suction brush. The insulation
may be damaged.
• Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be carried out by a
trained electrician. Improperly
performed repairs may place the user
at serious risk.
• If your vacuum cleaner has a fault,
please therefore contact your electri­
cal retailer or the AEG Service Centre
direct.
• Make sure that a paper dustbag and
MICROFILTER are always inserted.
• Never use your appliance to vacuum
matches, glowing embers, or cigarette-
ends. Avoid vacuuming hard pointed
objects, since they may damage the
appliance or paper dustbag.
• Allow shampooed carpets to dry
completely before vacuum cleaning.
This is important as otherwise your
vacuum cleaner may be damaged!
• If the appliance is wrongly operated or
used for a purpose other than that for
which it is intended, no liability can be
accepted for any possible damage.

Insert handle
First of all, insert the handlegrip into the
tubular handle by pressing down the locking
knob, taking care that the knob comes to rest
in the hole provided.
Fig. 2: Insert the handle into the top of the
appliance and secure it by means of the lock­
nut. The handlegrip and cable clips must point
backwards. Insert the electric lead into the
plug aperture on the handle next to the upper
cable clip.
Conversion into a hand appliance
(fig- 3)
Detach the handle from the appliance, sepa­
rate the handlegrip from the handle tube by
pressing on the knob and pulling, and insert it
in the appliance in place of the handle.
The handlegrip of the handle tube and the
handle on the appliance enable the appliance
to be used with ease and comfort on uphols­
tery, mattrasses, etc.
Fig. 4: The nozzles are connected by pushing
and twisting and disconnected by pulling and
twisting.
Switching on and off (fig. 5)
Switch your vacuum cleaner on or off with the
on/off button (A).
If you have connected other electrical
appliances with high connected load on the
same circuit and switch them on simulta­
neously with your vacuum cleaner, the fuse
may cut out. On the VAMPYRETTE 315, this
can be avoided by setting the slide control to
250 W before switching on and then control­
ling the setting to a higher level after switching
Power economy button and
electronic suction control
The VAMPYRETTE 315 incorporates a high-
performance blower. The suction power can
be electronically controlled by means of three
settings: 250 W, E-500 W, and 750 W.
