The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated underscores where none should exist based on the GT's visual context. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.

6* 7* 8* 4 2 5 3 1 2

ATTENTION:

Our optional turbo brush (i.e. depending on model and features in scope of delivery) is only for vacuuming scratch-resistant carpets, .rugs, mats, and the like. Do not clean any objects with the turbo brush that you would not clean without a second thought with a conventional brush. Therefore, do not clean furniture, or materials with a delicate texture, nor any other high-quality or polished substrates with the turbo brush. Otherwise material damage might occur. If in doubt, refrain from using the turbo brush. In every instance observe the instructions for care and cleaning of the respective manufacturer.

3.3 Assembly

1. Unpack the appliance and all its accessories.
2. Check that the contents are intact.

NOTE:

Immediately contact your dealer if you have found damage resulting from transport.

1. Select the nozzle according to the surface to be cleaned:

The following are included in the scope of delivery besides the floor nozzle (Fig. 2/1):

• Crevice nozzle (Fig. 2/2): Use it to vacuum dust from hard to reach places.
• The 2-in-1 combi nozzle (Fig. 2/3) is used as a:

Furniture brush (Fig. 2/3: Use this to vacuum dust off objects that have sensitive surfaces.

Upholstery nozzle (Fig. 2/4): By simply pulling off the collar brush (Fig. 2/5) you can transform the 2-in-1 combi nozzle into an upholstery nozzle (Fig. 2/4). Use this to clean soft, scratch-resistant surfaces (e.g. upholstered furniture).

- Optionally available* (*i.e. included in the scope of delivery depending on model and features) are also:

• Parquet brush (Fig. 2/6*): Its long bristles make it especially suitable for cleaning delicate floors.
• Turbo brush (Fig. 2/7*): This has a rotating brush head and is most suitable for deep cleaning carpets thoroughly.
• Long flexible crevice nozzle (Fig. 2/8*): Use this to vacuum dust from distant, hard-to-reach places.

NOTE:

When you use the long, flexible crevice nozzle, under certain circumstances the pressure inside the vacuum cleaner might drop too far thus triggering the safety valve. The signal for this is e.g. a whistling noise (depending on the vacuum cleaner model) and greatly reduced suction performance. In this case, depending on the vacuum cleaner model and equipment, you have to reduce the suction power or open the bypass vent until the valve no longer triggers.

1. Store nozzles not in use out of the reach of children.

! WARNING:

Danger of injury! Only attach the nozzles if the appliance is not connected to the power supply. The cylinder vacuum cleaner could be switched on by accident.

ATTENTION:

Before vacuuming, make sure that the fitted nozzle suits the surface to be cleaned. Also observe the flooring manufacturer's recommendations.

1. Attach the selected nozzle to the bottom end of the telescopic tube (Fig. 3/A1) or handle (Fig. 3/B1).

2. Insert the end of the suction hose into the intake opening (Fig. 4/A) of the vacuum cleaner until you hear and feel it locking into place.

If using the telescopic tube:

1. Insert the handle into the upper end of the telescopic tube (Fig. 4/B).
2. Adjust the length of the telescopic tube (Fig. 4/C). Press down the release latch on the tube to do this. Then extend the telescopic tube to the desired length. Let go of the release catch while pulling until it locks in place. You will hear a distinct click.

4.1 Operational safety

WARNING:

Danger of injury! Check appliance and power cord before each use. A damaged appliance must never be used.

WARNING:

Danger of injury! Especially when vacuum-cleaning stairs make sure that you always stand on a higher level than the appliance.

ATTENTION:

Only use the cylinder vacuum cleaner when all filters are intact, dry and correctly fitted. Make sure that no objects obstruct the telescopic tube, the suction hose or other openings.

NOTE:

Your vacuum cleaner has an integrated protective function which turns the appliance off automatically before it can overheat (e.g. due to blocked suction channels, an over-full dust container, or a dual protection filter that has not been maintained properly).

If this protective function triggers, the cleaning indicator (Fig. 5/5) flashes red fast. If this occurs, pull the plug out from the socket and proceed as described in Chapter 6.1, "Before you send in the appliance". You can then turn the clean, fully-assembled vacuum cleaner back on. If the cleaning indicator (Fig. 5/5) flashed red before the cleaning work was carried out, then it will still flash red slowly for 20–30 seconds (self-analysis mode) when the appliance is switched back on before changing to green.

4.2 Vacuum cleaning

6.1 Before you send in the appliance

WARNING:

Danger of injury! Never use a defective appliance! Always switch off the appliance and disconnect it from the mains before starting troubleshooting ▷ Chapter 4.3, "Switching off".

Before contacting your authorised Royal dealer, Royal service partner or appliance market or sending in the appliance, first follow the procedure in the following table to check if you can solve the problem yourself.

No.	Problem Possible cause Solution
1	The cleaning results are not satisfactory although the cleaning indicator (Fig. 1/8) is green.	The bypass vent (Fig. 1/19) is open. Close the bypass vent (Fig. 1/19).
		The attached nozzle is unsuitable. Change the nozzle, ▷Chapter 3.2, "Selecting the proper nozzle".
		The position of the 'carpet/hard floor' selector (Fig. 1/2) is unsuitable. Set the "carpet/hard floor" selector (Fig. 1/2) to the correct position for the type of floor, ▷Chapter 4.2, "Vacuum cleaning", step 4.
		The dust container is full. Empty the dust container, ▷Chapter 5.1, "Emptying the dust container".
		Nozzle, telescopic tube or suction hose is blocked. Remove the obstacle. If necessary, use a long wooden stick (e.g. a broom-stick) to do this.
2	The cleaning indicator (Fig. 1/8) suddenly begins to slowly flash red during cleaning.	The dust container has not been emptied often enough, or the nozzle, telescopic tube, or suction hose is blocked. 1. Switch off the appliance and pull the plug from the mains socket, ▷Chapter 4.3, "Switching off". 2. Empty the dust container, ▷Chapter 5.1, "Emptying the dust container". 3. Replace the dust container. 4. Plug the plug into a socket and turn the clean and fully-assembled vacuum cleaner back on. 5. If the cleaning indicator (Fig. 1/8) flashes red for more than thirty seconds after being switched back on despite the dust container being empty, then you also have to clean the components of the vacuum cleaner, ▷Chapter 5.2, "Cleaning the dust container and cyclone unit" and ▷Chapter 5.3, "Cleaning the dual motor protection filter". 6. Take this opportunity to remove the nozzle, telescopic tube, or suction hose from the appliance and remove any blockages (e.g. with a broom stick). 7. Plug the plug into a socket and turn the clean and fully-assembled vacuum cleaner back on. The cleaning indicator (Fig. 5/5) will continue to flash red slowly for 20-30 seconds (self-analysis mode) and will then change to green (operational).
3	The cleaning indicator (Fig. 1/8) slowly flashes red for 20-30 seconds after being switched back on.	This is normal. Your vacuum cleaner performs a self-analysis during this time. After 20-30 seconds the cleaning indicator (Fig. 1/8) turns back to green.
4	The cleaning indicator (Fig. 1/8) slowly flashes red for longer than 30 seconds after being switched back on.	The cleaning carried out was not sufficient. Proceed in accordance with the solution for problem no. 2.
5	The cleaning indicator (Fig. 1/8) flashes red fast after flashing red slowly for a while during cleaning.	The dust container has not been emptied often enough, or the nozzle, telescopic tube, or suction hose is blocked. If you do not react soon, the integrated protective mechanism in the vacuum cleaner will turn the appliance off automatically before it overheats. Proceed in accordance with the solution for problem no. 2.
6	The appliance suddenly stops vacuuming and the cleaning indicator (Fig. 1/8) continues to flash red fast.	The protective function in the vacuum cleaner, which turns the appliance off before it overheats, has been triggered because you continued to vacuum even though the cleaning indicator was flashing red, meaning there was a risk of over-heating. Proceed in accordance with the solution for problem no. 2.

We grant the legally prescribed warranty of 24 months from the date of purchase for the appliance distributed by us.

Within this period we will, at our discretion, either repair all appliance defects due to manufacturing or materials or replace the appliance or accessory (damages to accessories do not automatically cause a replacement of the complete appliance) at no cost. Damage due to inappropriate use (operation on wrong voltage or type of current, connecting to unsuitable power supplies, breakage, etc.) are exempt from warranty, as are normal wear and minor defects that only negligibly influence the appliance's serviceability. Interventions by unauthorised parties and the use of spare parts not supplied by RoyalAppliance make the warranty null and void. Consumable parts are not included in the warranty and therefore must be purchased by the customer!

The warranty is only valid if the date of purchase has been acknowledged by the dealer's stamp and signature on the warranty card or if a copy of the invoice or sales slip is included with the sent-in appliance. Warranty work does not extend the warranty period nor does it constitute a claim for a new warranty!

Send us the appliance with its dust container empty and a short description of the defect in printed letters.

Head your accompanying letter with the comment 'warranty claim'. Send it to the following address, including the warranty card or a copy of the invoice or purchase slip:
