TING INSTRUCTIONS
Danger!
This device uses a high electrical voltage which can be dangerous. Do not use
the appliance when the cable is defective or if the device has visible damage.
Never open the casing; this should only be done by the service engineer. Do not
vacuum hot ashes, live cigarette ends, matches, sharp objects, splinters, water or any
other liquids. This can damage the vacuum cleaner and can put you in serious danger.
Hot ashes, live cigarette ends etc. can set the filter on fire and liquids can lead to short
circuits. Sharp objects can damage the filter. Do not allow children to play with any
plastic packaging as it may result in suffocation.
Danger!
Never expose the vacuum cleaner to outdoor elements such as rain or snow.
Always unplug the vacuum cleaner from the mains before cleaning or removing
the filter. Children maybe unaware of the dangers of electrical products so should not
use the vacuum cleaner without supervision.
Caution!
Hold the plug firmly when rewinding the cable. The powerful rewind mechanism
can result in the cable whipping. Despite having a filter, it is possible that a
small quantity of dirt is present in the air emitted by the exhaust. This can be inhaled
and result in allergic reactions. For this reason, do not vacuum when someone who
may have a reaction is present.
Important!
Never pull the plug out of the socket by tugging on the cable, always grip the
plug itself. Never sit on or place objects on the vacuum cleaner. Only use the
vacuum cleaner when the filters are fitted. The filters must not be damaged.
Important!
Before vacuum cleaning a shampooed carpet, wait until it is completely dry. Never
leave the vacuum cleaner close to a heater or an oven.

customer service department. Faults resulting from improper use, failure to follow the
instructions or damage caused by repairs done by a third party are not covered by the
guarantee. This also applies to the wear of component parts such as the filter.
