WARNING
The brush in the cleaning head rotates at high speed and can cause damage to the mains supply cable
if the vacuum passes over it during operations.
Care should be taken to ensure that this does not happen. If the cleaning head is accidentally passed over the
mains supply cable, the following action should be taken:
1. Switch off and remove the plug from the socket outlet.
2. Examine the mains supply cable for damage (only after removing the plug from the socket outlet).
3. If there is any sign of damage to the supply cable it MUST be renewed. The repair MUST be carried out by
an Authorised Electrolux Service Agent.
4. NEVER use the machine with a damaged mains supply cable.
