When using your vacuum cleaner, basic
precautions should always be observed,
including the following;
1. This appliance is
not
intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack
of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
2. Children should be supervised to ensure that
they
do not
play with the vacuum cleaner.
3. Keep ends of the hose, telescopic tube and
other openings away from your face and body.
4.
Do not
operate the vacuum cleaner too close to
heaters, radiators or other hot surfaces.
5.
Do not
use the appliance to pick up flammable
items or combustible liquids (i.e. petrol,
hot ashes, cigarettes, matches, explosive
materials or anything burning) or use in areas
where such substances or items may be
present.
6.
Do not
use the appliance to pick up toxic
materials (i.e. chlorine, bleach, ammonia).
7. Before vacuuming, remove any large objects
from the floor or cleaning surface in order to
prevent damage to the filter.
8. Always check the power cord before use.
The power cord and the power plug should
be in a good condition and must not be
damaged. If the power supply cord is
damaged or defective, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
9.
Do not
extend the power cable beyond the
yellow mark.
10.
Do not
pull or carry the appliance by the power
cable, use the power cable as a handle or pull
the power cable around edges or corners.
Avoid running the appliance over the power
cable.
11. Ensure the appliance is switched off before
unplugging.
12.
Do not
unplug by pulling on the power cord.
To unplug, grasp the power plug not the power
cord and gently pull the power plug from the
power socket. Use only Australian and New
Zealand electrical safety approved extension
cords.
13. Hold the power plug when rewinding the
power cord. To prevent accidental injury
do not
allow the power plug to whip when
rewinding.
14.
Do not
handle or operate the appliance with
wet hands. Follow electrical safety precautions
at all times.
