2.5 Standby position and power setting
In combination with an accessory head, you can either use your Kobold VK200
Upright Vacuum Cleaner in the power setting or set it into standby position.
SETTING THE DEVICE INTO STANDBY POSITION
Caution! Risk of injury from toppling device!
The standby position is used to park the device after you have finished
working with it or when you take a break.
The Kobold VK200 Upright Vacuum Cleaner with the accessory head in
standby position must be placed on a level surface.
Note! Risk of damage when the device starts up automatically.
Note that the Kobold VK200 Upright Vacuum Cleaner starts up auto-
matically when you take it out of the standby position if you have not
first switched off the mains switch.
The standby position is used to store your Upright Vacuum Cleaner when you are
not using it. You can also “park” it in this position if you want to take a short
break while cleaning. In the standby position, the device stands upright and
firmly on the floor.
You can put the Upright Vacuum Cleaner into standby position when it is facing
straight ahead.
In order to do so, turn the Upright Vacuum Cleaner at the pivot so that it and
the accessory head, such as the Automatic Electric Brush , faces straight
ahead.
Now you can set it to standby position.

If you place the Kobold VK200 Upright Vacuum Cleaner with the Kobold
EB400 Automatic Electric Brush or the Kobold VF200 Carpet Freshener
into the standby position, and have not switched it off via the main switch,
the Upright Vacuum Cleaner automatically switches off the fan and the
brush of the EB400/VF200 stops. The filter level indicator and the control
lights of the accessory head continue to be lit.
ROLLING THE KOBOLD VK200 UPRIGHT VACUUM CLEANER
You can conveniently roll the device in standby position to move it to
different places:
In the standby position, tilt the device backwards so it stands on the rollers.
Move it in the desired direction on the rollers .
SETTING THE DEVICE INTO POWER SETTING
In the power setting, the Upright Vacuum Cleaner can be moved freely and the
device can be steered in all directions on the floor.

rod handle back so that you hear it disengage from the standby position.

2.8 Switching the device on and off, setting the power
performance level
SWITCHING ON
Switch the Kobold VK200 Upright Vacuum Cleaner on by sliding the main
switch from position forward .
SETTING THE POWER PERFORMANCE LEVEL
In general, we recommend power performance level auto (automatic suction
power).
When the Kobold EB400 Automatic Electric Brush is used, the suction
power is regulated automatically if power performance level auto is set
using the main switch .
To manually set the suction power levels with the main switch , proceed as
follows:
- auto – Automatic suction power (recommended)
- so – minimum power
- med – medium power
- max – maximum power
We recommend vacuuming with the power performance level auto when
using all accessory parts. The other power levels are specially intended for
specific uses. You will find them in the chapters on the accessory parts.

29Operation
3.1 Kobold EB400 Automatic Electric Brush
The Automatic Electric Brush performs equally well on carpets and hard floors.
For especially thorough carpet cleaning, the Automatic Electric Brush has its
own motor that drives the integrated roller brush. Figure 3.2 shows the Automatic
Electric Brush and its operating elements.
The Automatic Electric Brush with its versatile functionality can be used on most
floors.
However, before using the Automatic Electric Brush, please confirm that the
device is suitable for your floor (Table 1.1 on page 6).
Warning! Risk of electric shock!
Never drive your Kobold EB400 Automatic Electric Brush over the
power cord or other cables on the floor.
Caution! Pinching hazard!
Stay clear of the moveable parts of the Kobold EB400 Automatic
Electric Brush.
Note! Risk of damage from improper use!
Avoid working with the device in one specific spot for a prolonged
period of time.
Avoid vacuuming loose carpets/fringes.

32 Operation
SWITCHING FLEX/FINE
- Flex seing: Your Automatic Electric Brush is perfectly pre-set with the ex
seing for everyday vacuuming.
- Fine seing: You can adjust the Automatic Electric Brush specically when
vacuuming ne dust from joints and cracks. You will obtain maximum dust
collection, for instance from a wooden oor with lots of joints, with the ne
seing.
Caution! Risk of injury due to the rotating brush!
Always switch off the Kobold VK200 Upright Vacuum Cleaner with the
main switch before changing the setting on the bottom of the Kobold
EB400 Automatic Electric Brush.
Switch off the Upright Vacuum Cleaner with the main switch.
The Automatic Electric Brush automatically defaults back to carpet mode.
Push the slider on the underside of the device to the position (fine) for
fine dust in joints or the position (flex) for picking up coarse material on
smooth floors.
We recommend the flex setting for normal work. Only select the fine
setting for floors with large joints or cracks, such as wooden plank floors.
When the Kobold EB400 Automatic Electric Brush is in hard floor mode,
the slider cannot be operated. In this case, switch the Kobold VK200
Upright Vacuum Cleaner off and back on again using the main switch to
set the Kobold EB400 Automatic Electric Brush to carpet mode.

TIPS FOR BRUSH-SUCTION
We generally recommend using the power performance level auto. The other
power performance levels are specially intended for specific types of carpet.

- carpets with fringes,
- sensitive deep-pile carpeting
- Deep-pile carpeting,
- very dense velour carpeting
auto or med,
max
- Hard floors
- Stairs
- Sisal floors
Table 3.1 Settings for the floor types
Use the power performance level max for carpeted floors with excessive
amounts of fine dust.
Floor detection should always be activated when using the Automatic Electric
Brush.
Set the correct power performance level according to “Table 3.1 Settings for
the floor types”.
If you want to brush-suction a delicate floor even more gently, activate hard
floor mode with the function key before even moving onto the surface.
Switch back to hard floor mode again each time after switching on the
Upright
Vacuum Cleaner, because hard floor mode is deactivated automatically
when the
Upright Vacuum Cleaner is switched off.
34 Operation
Move the device evenly back and forth.
For vacuuming under low furniture where there is little ground clearance,
set the Automatic Electric Brush to the power setting and lay the Upright
Vacuum Cleaner flat on the floor.
If you set the Kobold VK200 Upright Vacuum Cleaner to the standby
position in between, the rotating brush shuts off automatically.
FOR CARPET OR TEXTILE FLOORING
Never let the device work in one place for a longer period, otherwise the
carpet may be damaged.
Keep moving the device back and forth during operation.
To make sure that the Automatic Electric Brush cleans right up to the edges
of the carpet, vacuum with the side of the Brush parallel to the edge.
The rotating roller brush can also work ‘mechanically’ and comb the
fringes of a rug when used in hard floor mode. Only pull the Kobold
EB400 Automatic Electric Brush over the fringes backwards, away from
the carpet.
3.1.3 Combination with older vacuum cleaner models
If you use the Kobold EB400 Automatic Electric Brush in combination
with the Kobold VK150 Upright Vacuum Cleaner or older models, the
manual switch operation and the suction regulation is disabled (Level
auto).
