IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

1. Read all instructions carefully. Before switching on, make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of the cleaner.
2. WARNING : Do not use the vacuum cleaner when rug or floor is wet.
   Do not use to suck up water.
3. Do not use the vacuum cleaner without a dust bin.
   Empty the dust bin before it is full in order to maintain the best efficiency.
4. Slide to the Stop(or Min)position before inserting a plug into the electrical outlet.
5. Do not use the vacuum cleaner to pick up matches, live ashes or cigarette butts.
   Keep the vacuum cleaner away from stoves and other heat sources. Heat can deform and discolour the plastic parts of the unit.
6. Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with the vacuum cleaner as they may damage the cleaner parts. Do not stand on the hose assembly. Do not put weight on the hose.
   Do not block the suction or the exhaust port.
7. Switch the vacuum cleaner off on the body of the

machine before unplugging from the electrical outlet. Disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet before changing the dust bag or dust container. To avoid damage, please remove the plug by grasping the plug itself, not by pulling on the cord.

1. This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
2. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
3. The plug must be removed from the socket outlet before cleaning or maintaining the appliance.
4. The use of an extension cord is not recommended.
5. If your vacuum cleaner is not operating correctly, switch off the power supply and consult an authorized service agent.
6. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
7. Don't carry the vacuum cleaner by holding the hose. Use the handle on the vacuum cleaner set.
8. Unplug the cleaner when not in use. Turn off the power switch before unplugging.
