Safety instructions (read carefully)
Every electrical device must be used for its particular function only, respecting the manufacturer’s instructions.
Failure to adhere to these instructions could result in serious bodily injury to the operator (shock, electrocution,
etc.).
Please read the following safety instructions carefully and ensure that you understand them prior to using the
machine.
•
Before putting the machine’s plug in the wall socket, check that the voltage available is the same indicated
on the label of the machine.
•
Be sure that the electrical system is well grounded and that it has a GFI.
•
Verify that the cable plug is the same as the outlet.
•
Do not use adapters or multiple sockets
•
If any electrical extension is used, ensure it is the correct gauge of wire and make sure it is watertight.
•
Take care of the electrical cable. Do not repair the cable in case of tears, but replace it with a new one.
•
Do not pull the cable to drag the machine or to pull the plug out. Pull the plug out only when the machine is
switched off.
•
Do not handle the plug with wet hands.
•
Do not spray water near electrical outlets. Do not use the machine to spray or to suck dust, corrosive
liquids (acids or bases) and explosive or inflammable liquids.
•
Do not use the machine in an explosive atmosphere.
•
Do not let the machine be used by children and people unable to understand the danger connected with
the use of electrical power.
•
Do not bring the end of the suction hose or one of the accessories near your face or others’, particularly
near ears and eyes: the sucked air could seriously damage them.
•
If the machine is used as a wet vacuum cleaner, you must check the level of water in the recovery tank, in
order to prevent water from being sucked through the vacuum motor.
•
If the chemical you are using produces foam, or if you are cleaning carpet previously treated with shampoo,
you
must
add
defoamer
into the recovery tank to prevent damage to the vacuum motor.
•
In case of abnormal working (very noisy motor, pump not running, extreme temperature rise, or other
suspicious signals) switch off the machine and pull the plug out.
•
After using, store the machine, well cleaned, in a cool and dry place.
Attention:
all electrical repairs must be performed by qualified personal only!
