Do not vacuum close to the head when using a nozzle
and tube.
=> This could cause injury!
When vacuuming stairs, the appliance must always be
positioned below the user.
Do not use the power cord or the hose to carry or
transport the vacuum cleaner.
Fully extend the power cord when using the vacuum
cleaner continuously for several hours.
When disconnecting the appliance from the mains,
pull on the plug itself to remove it; do not pull on the
power cord.
Do not pull the power cord over sharp edges or allow
it to be-come trapped.
For safety reasons, if this appliance's mains power
cable becomes damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, their after-sales service department or a
similarly qualified person.
Pull out the mains plug before carrying out any work
on the vacuum cleaner.
Do not operate the vacuum cleaner if it is damaged.
Unplug the appliance from the mains if a fault is detec-
ted.
For safety reasons, only authorised after-sales service
personnel are permitted to carry out repairs and fit
replacement parts to the vacuum cleaner.
Protect the vacuum cleaner from the weather, moistu-
re and sources of heat.
Do not pour flammable substances or substances con-
taining alcohol onto the filters (dust bag, motor pro-
tection filter, exhaust filter, etc.).
The vacuum cleaner is not suitable for use on con-
struction sites.
=> Vacuuming up building rubble could damage the
appliance.
Switch off the appliance when it is not in use.
At the end of its life, the appliance should immediately
be rendered unusable, then disposed of in an appro-
priate manner.
Plastic bags and films must be kept
out of the reach of children before
disposal.
=> Risk of suffocation.
!
Please note
The mains socket must be protected by at least a 16
amp circuit breaker.
If a circuit breaker is tripped when you switch on the
vacuum cleaner, this may be because other electrical
appliances which have a high current draw are
connected to the same power circuit.
To prevent the circuit breaker from tripping, select the
lowest power setting before switching the appliance
on, and increase the power only once it is running.
Disposal information
Packaging
The packaging is designed to protect the vacuum clea-
ner from being damaged during transportation. It is
made of environmentally friendly materials and can
therefore be recycled. Dispose of packaging that is no
longer required at an appropriate recycling point.
Old appliance
Old appliances still contain many valuable materials.
Therefore, please take appliances that have reached
the end of their service life to your retailer or recycling
centre so that they can be recycled. For current dispo-
sal methods, please enquire at a retailer or your local
council.
Disposal of filters and dust bags
Filters and dust bags are manufactured from environ-
mentally friendly materials. Provided they do not con-
tain substances that are not permitted in household
waste, you can dispose of them with your normal hou-
sehold waste.
