• 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.
• Switch off the appliance and/or remove the adapter from the wall
socket in the event of a malfunction during use or charging, 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 adapter
from the wall socket immediately. Do not use the appliance any more.
• Never immerse the appliance, power cord or adapter in water or other
liquid. After washing the filters make sure they are thoroughly dry
before returning them to the appliance.
