dren. Whilst playing, children could become entangled in

Technical safety
 The vacuum cleaner operates at 25.2 V.
It is classified as a class III appliance.
This appliance is supplied by a safety extra-low voltage
(SELV) power source where the voltage is low enough to
protect users from the risk of electrical shock. A Class II
charger is used for supplying power to charge the vacuum
cleaner.

Before using the vacuum cleaner and its accessories,
check for any visible signs of damage. Do not use a dam-
aged appliance.
 Compare the connection data on the data plate of the
charger (voltage and frequency) with that of the mains
electricity supply. This data must match exactly. Without
modifications, the charger is suitable for 50 Hz and 60 Hz.

The mains electrical plug must be fitted with an appro-
priate fuse.
