DANGER:
• To reduce the risk of fire, electric shocks or injury, please carefully read and comply with all the
safety instructions and warnings. This vacuum cleaner has been designed to be safe when it
is used for cleaning in the manner specified. If damage to electrical or mechanical components
is found, the vacuum cleaner and/or the accessory must be repaired at the relative authorised
service centre or else at the manufacturer before use, in order to prevent further damage to the
appliance or physical injury to the user.
• Before connecting the appliance to the electricity socket, make sure the electrical information on
the plate corresponds to that of the mains supply. The appliance must only be powered with
alternating current and with the voltage shown on the rating plate
.
• The power supply cable outlet must have an earth connection in compliance with the regulatory
standards.
• Before using, check for any damage on the connection cable and on the power plug. If the
power cable is damaged, it should be changed by customer services or by a technician with
similar qualifications.
• Connect the appliance only to an electrical connection installed by an electrical installer in
conformity with IEC 60364-1.
• Never touch the power plug with wet hands.
• Make sure that the cable to the mains or the extension cable have not been damaged by having
been walked on, crushed, pulled or the like. Protect the cable from heat and from contact with
oils or sharp edges.
• Regularly check that the cable connecting to the mains is not damaged, for example with signs
of ageing or cracks. If damage is found, the cable should be replaced before using the appliance
again.
• Protection against splashes of water and the mechanical strength need to be ensured also after
any replacement of the joints of the power cable or the extension cable.
• Do not clean the appliance with a hose or a jet of high pressure water (risk of short-circuit or
other electrical faults).
ATTENTION:
• The procedure causes short-term reduction in voltage.
• In unfavourable grid conditions the other appliances could be damaged.
• This damage could occur if the grid impedance is less than 0.15Ω.
CONNECTION TO THE ELECTRICITY GRID
DANGER:
• Never use with a damaged cable or plug. When removing from an electrical socket, pull the plug
and not the cable. Do not handle the plug or the vacuum cleaner with wet hands. Deactivate all
the controls before connecting or disconnecting from the electrical socket.
• Do not pull or transport the appliance by the cable, do not use the cable as a handle, do not
close a door on the cable, and do not pull the cable around sharp edges or corners. Do not pass
the vacuum cleaner over the cable. Keep the cable away from hot surfaces.
• Be careful when cleaning on stairs.
• The appliance must not be used or kept outdoors, in damp conditions or directly exposed to
rain.
