●
Only use the appliance to carry out work for which has been designed.
●
Use only genuine accessories and spare parts.
●
The guidelines in the operating instructions must be observed. The safety and accident-prevention
regulations from the lawgiver are also to be observed.
●
Important! Hazardous material must not be extracted with the ash filter.
●
Do not extract ashes from prohibited fuels.
●
Do not use the ash filter to extract hot, glowing or inflammable objects (e.g. charcoal, cigarettes ...).
●
Important. The ash vacuum cleaner is not suitable for vacuuming soot or fine dust.
●
Important! The extracted material must not exceed a temperature of 40°C.
●
Important! If this temperature of the extracted material exceeds 40°C, there is a risk of fire.
●
Important! If the permissible temperature is exceeded, the extractor, the ash filter and the hoses could
be damaged.
●
Important! Extracted material which looks as though it has cooled off on the outside may still be hot
on the inside. Hot extracted material could be set alight again in the air current.
●
Before beginning extraction, please wait until the material is completely cooled off. Hot ashes should
not be purged with water, as the sudden temperature difference can cause ruptures to the chimney.
●
Wait at least 24 hours before vacuuming an oven or a fireplace in order to be sure that the fire has
gone out and the ash has cooled down.
●
Check the hoses, the ash filter and the extractor regularly when extracting, to assess levels of heating.
●
If the appliance heats up, switch it off, pull the mains plug out and remove the filter bag immediately.
Separate the ash filter from the extractor and remove the extracted material. Next, let the extractor
and the ash filter cool off outside, under supervision.
●
If the power cable for this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-
sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid danger.
●
Cold ash is ash which has cooled for a sufficiently long time and no longer contains any glowing embers.
This can be checked by combing through the ash with a metal object before you use the ash vacuum
cleaner. Cold ash no longer radiates any perceivable heat.
●
After and before vacuum cleaning, empty and clean the tank in order to prevent the accumulation of
materials which could present a fire hazard in the vacuum cleaner.
