1. Precautions before use
• Your vacuum cleaner is an electric appliance: it must always be used under normal conditions. Use and store the
appliance away from children’s reach. Never leave the appliance on and unattended. Never hold the end of the
vacuum tube near your eyes or ears.
• Never vacuum wet surfaces or liquids, no matter what their nature; hot substances; ultra-fine substances such as
plaster, cement or ashes; large cutting waste materials such as glass; toxic products such as solvents or paint strip-
pers; aggressive products such as acids or strong cleaners; or gasoline or alcohol-based flammable or explosive
materials.
• Never submerge the product or charge it under water or under any other liquid. Never spray water on the ap-
pliance or on the charger.
• Do not store the appliance outdoors and keep it in a cool, dry place at all times.
• Do not place the appliance near a heat source (ovens, electric heaters or hot radiators).
• Do not expose the batteries to a room temperature above 104ºF (40°C).
• Do not take the vacuum cleaner apart while it is on.
• Never use your vacuum cleaner without the dust tray and the foam rubber motor protection filter.
• Do not use the appliance:
- If it fell and shows visible signs of deterioration or functional anomalies.
- If the charger or the charger cable are damaged.
In any of these cases, do not try to take the appliance apart. Rather, take it to the authorized Tefal Service Center
nearest to your home, because special tools will be needed in order to safely carry out any repairs.
