IMPORTANT- PLEASE READ
For efficient operation it is essential that all the airways and filters
are cleaned regularly and that the dust container is emptied before
it is full and after every use of the appliance. Failure to do this will
restrict the airflow and result in poor cleaner performance.
Damage caused by failure to empty the dust container and to clean
the filters and airways as specified in these instructions will not be
covered by the warranty.
AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF THERMOSTAT
There is a safety thermostat inside the cleaner to prevent the unit
from being run with too high a vacuum rate. If the airways or filters
get clogged the pressure in the cleaner will be excessive and the
thermostat will activate. The cleaner then will stop working to
protect the motor from overheating.
If this happens switch off and unplug the cleaner immediately.
Allow the motor to cool down for one hour and clean the airways
and filters thoroughly. Plug the cleaner in again and switch on: the
cleaner should now operate normally.
