Safety Instructions

General

• Please read these instructions carefully and retain them for reference.
• Use this appliance solely in accordance with these instructions.
• Use solely accessories recommended by the supplier. The use of other accessories may result in damage to the appliance, thereby creating hazards for the user.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
  • Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Have any repairs carried out solely by a qualified electrician. Never try to repair the appliance yourself.

Electricity and heat

• Before use please verify that the mains voltage is the same as indicated on the rating plate of the appliance.
  • Always remove the plug from the socket when the appliance is not in use.
• Remove the plug from the wall socket by pulling the plug, not the power cord.
• Check the appliance's power cord regularly to make sure it is not damaged. Do not use the appliance if the power cord is damaged. Have a damaged power cord replaced by a qualified repair service.
• When using an extension lead always make sure that the entire cable is unwound from the reel.
• Use solely approved extension leads.
• Avoid stumbling over the extension lead or power cord.
• Make sure the air vents are not covered or blocked.
• Make sure that the appliance, the power cord or the plug do not make contact with heat sources, such as a hot hob or naked flame.
  • Make sure that the appliance, the power cord and plug do not make contact with water.

During use

• Never use the appliance outdoors.
• Never use the appliance in a humid room.
  • Make sure that your hands are dry before touching the appliance, power cord or plug.
  • Take care when fitting the filter. Do not use the appliance if the filter is damaged or fitted incorrectly; this could damage the appliance.
• Do not use the appliance to suck up the following objects:
• glowing or burning objects
• glass splinters or other sharp objects
  • residues of plaster, cement, stone, soot, and similar
  • liquids, or moist dirt.

These objects could cause serious damage to the appliance and the filter system, and make it unsafe to use.

• Do not use the vacuum cleaner on wet rugs and carpets.
• Never insert objects in the air-exhaust vents.
  • Make sure that the suction and exhaust openings are open, and that the filter is

not blocked. Blockages will cause the appliance to overheat. Switch off the vacuum cleaner immediately! Once you have remedied the problem, wait 20 to 30 minutes to allow the vacuum cleaner to cool down completely. It will then be ready for use again.

• Keep the nozzle and the tubes away from the body while the vacuum cleaner is running. This could cause serious injury, for example to the eyes or ears.
• Never roll the appliance over the cord.
• Switch off the appliance and remove the plug from the wall socket in the event of a malfunction during use, and before emptying the appliance, cleaning the appliance, fitting or removing an accessory, or storing the appliance after use.
• Do not pick up the appliance if it falls into water. Remove the plug from the wall socket immediately. Do not use the appliance any more.
• Never immerse the appliance, the power cord or the plug in water or other liquid. After washing the filters make sure they are thoroughly dry before returning them to the appliance.
