Transport and storage

and dispose of
its contents properly.
WARNING:
Danger of injury! A damaged appliance must never be used. Always check the appliance and its AC adapter
for damages before using it.
WARNING:
Danger of squeezing! Be careful that you don't squeeze your hands when turning the handle into the upright
position (fig. 8, Fig. 13).
ATTENTION:
Only use the appliance with all filters intact, in dry condition and correctly fitted. Make sure that no openings
are clogged.
ATTENTION:
Do not overheat the appliance. Switch it off after no more than 10 minutes and let it cool off to room
temperature.
ATTENTION:
Never use the upright vacuum cleaner with its rotating brush for delicate surfaces. These might suffer
scratches. Also observe the flooring manufacturer's recommendations. Do not vacuum-clean near cables,
long rug fringes, curtains or draperies. These might be pulled in, block the rotating brush and thus damage
the motor.
NOTE:
The crevice nozzle will automatically be partially extended. If you actually want to use the crevice nozzle,
extend it completely until its latch becomes visible on the underside of the handheld (fig. 11) and clicks into
place. If you do not want to use the crevice nozzle, push it all the way back into the handheld. Never operate
the appliance without the crevice nozzle, because the air will not be properly sucked in without it.
ATTENTION:
Never store the appliance next to heat sources (e.g. stoves or radiators). Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight.
Heat can damage the appliance. Store the appliance in such a way that it cannot start up by itself.
