We do not recommend extinguishing the fire rapidly with water. The chimney ma- terial will not withstand the quick tem- perature changes and may crack. – Continuously check hoses and vacuum cleaner for heat while vacuuming ash- es.

Do not pull the plug from the socket by pull- ing on the connecting cable. Check the power cord with mains plug for damage before every use. If the power cord is damaged, please arrange immediately for the exchange by an authorized custom- er service or a skilled electrician. To avoid accidents due to electrical faults we recommend the use of sockets with a line-side current-limiting circuit breaker (max. 30 mA nominal tripping current). Caution Certain materials may produce explosive vapours or mixtures when agitated by the suction air! Never vacuum up the following materials: – Explosive or combustible gases, liquids and dust particles (reactive dust particles) – Reactive metal dust particles (such as aluminium, magnesium, zinc) in combi- nation with highly alkaline or acidic de- tergents – Undiluted, strong acids and alkalies – Organic solvents (such as petrol, paint thinners, acetone, heating oil). – Hot, burning or glowing objects with temperatures greater than 40°C.
