Information on the brush roller
The brush roller in the floor nozzle rotates
at high speed. This poses various hazards to
people, animals and objects:
Never vacuum clean people, animals or
plants. Keep parts of the body and items of
clothing away from the moving parts and
openings on the appliance when it is in
operation. They may otherwise be drawn in
and cause injuries.
Before you detach or attach, open or
clean the floor nozzle, switch off the appli-
ance.
Do not run over cords, cables etc. as
there is a risk of them becoming tangled in
the brush roller and may become damaged.
Keep the rotating brush roller away from
all delicate surfaces. This may otherwise
cause damage. Comply with the care and
cleaning instructions provided by the man-
ufacturer.
Also keep the rotating brush roller away
from curtains, long tassels and the like. The
objects may otherwise become drawn in
