Frequently Asked Questions - CJ132WT-060 Hanseatic

How do I adjust the suction force?

You can adjust the suction force by using the air bypass vent on the telescopic tube handle. Opening the vent reduces suction, which is useful for delicate surfaces or when the vacuum accidentally picks up an object.

Can I vacuum liquids or wet carpets?

No, the vacuum cleaner is designed only for dry vacuuming. Vacuuming water or other liquids can cause short circuits and damage the appliance. Never vacuum wet carpets or freshly shampooed carpets until completely dry.

How often should I empty the dust bin?

It is recommended to empty the dust bin after each use, or at the latest when the lower third of the dust bin is full. This maintains optimal suction power and prevents dust from escaping.

How do I clean the motor protection filter?

Remove the dust bin, pull out the motor protection filter (foam), tap it out over a waste bin. If very dirty, rinse under warm running water, squeeze gently (do not wring), and let it dry completely before reinserting.

How do I replace the hygiene filter?

Remove the dust bin and dust bin lid. Take out the hygiene filter. If dirty, tap it out or rinse with clear water (max 40°C) and air-dry for at least 24 hours. Replace if odors persist or filter is heavily soiled.

What should I do if the suction power is weak?

Check if the dust bin is full or incorrectly inserted, if the air bypass vent is open, if the brush/nozzle is blocked, or if the filters are dirty. Also ensure the telescopic tube and hose are not blocked. Clean or empty as needed.

Is it safe to use the vacuum cleaner without filters?

No, never operate the vacuum cleaner without filters or with damaged filters. Doing so allows dust to penetrate the motor and escape into the air, posing health and damage risks.

How do I store the vacuum cleaner?

After use, switch off, unplug, and press the foot switch to retract the cord while holding the plug. Insert the nozzle bracket into the storage holder on the appliance for compact storage.

How do I clean the turbo brush?

Unplug the vacuum and remove the turbo brush from the tube. Open the maintenance flap on the bottom, remove lint and hair from the brush and air blade wheel, then close the flap securely.

What does the overheat protection do?

If the motor protection filter is blocked or the appliance overheats, the vacuum cleaner automatically switches off. Let it cool for at least 30 minutes, clean the filter, and it will be ready to use again.

• Set up the device as described in the chapter “Setting up the device” (see “Setting up the appliance” on page EN-15).

Vacuuming floors

CAUTION

Risk of electric shock! Improper use of the appliance can cause severe damage.

■ Do not vacuum glowing ash, burning cigarettes or matches, sharp objects, glass fragments, water or other liquids. Glowing ash, burning cigarettes, etc. set the fi liter on fi re; moisture can cause short circuits; sharp objects damage the fi liter and can cause short circuits.

CAUTION

Health hazard!

Improper handling of the appliance may result in health hazards.

■ Do not use the appliance if the hygiene or motor protection fi lter is missing or damaged. Otherwise, vacuumed dust can penetrate the appliance and escape into the ambient air.

■ Never vacuum clay, plaster, cement, masonry dust or drilling dust.

NOTICE

Risk of damage to property! Failure to unplug the supply cord in an appropriate way may damage the appliance.

■ When using the vacuum cleaner, always pull out the

supply cord completely to the yellow marker.

■ Never pull the supply cord out beyond the red marker. Pulling the cord out further can damage the cable reel.

1. Pull the mains cord (9) out until the yellow marking (25) is visible on the mains cord (9).

If the red marking (26) is visible, the mains cord (9) has been pulled out too far. Allow the mains cord (9) to retract slightly (see “Finishing vacuuming” on page EN-19).

1. Insert the mains plug (9) into a properly installed socket.

1. To switch the appliance on, use your foot to operate the On/Off foot switch (3).
2. To vacuum, push and pull the nozzle across the surface you are vacuuming. Rotate the telescopic tube handle (14) slightly to reach corners more effectively. This positions the nozzle diagonally.

In rare cases there can be a whistling noise initially. This is not a malfunction and stops after a while.

Setting the suction force

Air by-pass vent

You can adjust the suction force as needed by using the air bypass vent (27). The covering of the air by-pass vent (27) can be adjusted as desired.

Should the vacuum cleaner accidentally vacuum up an object, opening the air bypass vent immediately reduces the suction force. This remedial action will prevent such items from being drawn into the dust-bin.

Waste prevention, free return and disposal

Waste prevention

According to the provisions of Directive 2008/98/EC, waste prevention measures always take priority over waste management.

For electrical and electronic devices, waste prevention measures include extending the lifespan of defective devices through repair and reselling used working appliances instead of disposing of them.

Please help us reduce waste and contact our customer service if your product is faulty.

More information can be found in the brochure ‘Waste Prevention Programme – of the German Government with the Involvement of the Federal Länder’.

Free return of old electrical appliances

Upon purchasing a new electrical appliance of the same type with essentially the same function, consumers may return an old electrical appliance to a distributor obliged to take back old appliances, at no extra cost for the consumers. This option also exists for deliveries made to a private household. For distance selling, the option of having old electrical equipment collected for free applies only in the case of purchase of new electrical equipment with heat exchangers (e.g. refrigerators, dehumidifiers), screens and display devices with a screen surface > 100 cm ^2 , and large devices with at least one of its external dimensions measuring more than 50 cm.

In addition, consumers may return up to three old electrical appliances of the same type to a distributor's collection point for free, without having to purchase a new electrical appliance. In this case, however, the old appliances' external dimensions may not exceed 25 cm.

Disposal

Environmentally friendly disposal of old electrical devices

Electrical appliances contain harmful sub- stances as well as val- uable resources.

Every consumer is

therefore required by law to dispose of old electrical appliances at an authorised collection or return point. They will thus be made available for environmentally-sound, resource-saving recycling.

You can dispose of old electrical appliances free of charge at your local recycling centre.

Please contact your dealer directly for more information about this topic.

Don't forget to erase data!

If necessary, each consumer is responsible for erasing personal data from electrical and electronic equipment.

Batteries and rechargeable batteries, lamps and bulbs

If necessary, old single-use and rechargeable batteries that are not encased by an old electrical appliance, as well as lamps/bulbs that can be removed from an old electrical appliance without being destroyed, must be removed and disposed of separately before you return the appliance.

This symbol means that single-use and rechargeable batteries may not be disposed of with the household

waste.

Consumers are required by law to bring all single-use and rechargeable batteries, regardless of whether they contain harmful substances*) or not, to a collection point operated by their communal authority or borough or to a retailer so that they can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner and so that valuable resources (e.g. cobalt, nickel or copper) can be recovered.

Batteries and rechargeable batteries can be returned free of charge.

Some of the possible contents (e.g. mercury, cadmium and lead) are toxic and, if improperly disposed of, can have adverse effects on the environment. Heavy metals, for instance, can have detrimental health effects on humans, animals and plants and accumulate in the environment and food chain, and then enter the body indirectly through the consumption of food.

There is a high risk of fire with old lithium batteries. Special care must therefore be taken to properly dispose of old lithium batteries and rechargeable batteries. Improper disposal can also lead to internal and external short circuits due to thermal effects (heat) or mechanical damage. A short circuit can lead to a fire or an explosion and have serious consequences for people and the environment. It is therefore important to tape off the terminals of lithium batteries and rechargeable batteries before disposing of them to prevent an external short circuit.

Single-use and rechargeable batteries that are not built into the device should be removed before disposal and then disposed of separately.

Please only dispose of single-use and rechargeable batteries in a discharged state!

If possible, use rechargeable batteries in place of disposable batteries.

Charge your batteries properly and fully to maximize their lifespan. If necessary, fully discharge them using a suitable charger before recharging.

Always use the correct type of batteries for your devices. Incorrect use can shorten the life of the batteries and possibly cause harmful effects.
