IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS VACUUM CLEANER.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electric shock, or injury:

• Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

• Do not leave vacuum cleaner when plugged in. Turn off the switch and unplug the

electrical cord when not in use and before servicing.

• Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near

children.

• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended

attachments.

• Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If vacuum cleaner is not working as it should,

has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center before using.

• Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close door on cord, or pull cord

around sharp edges or corners. Do not run vacuum cleaner over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

• Connect to properly grounded outlet only. (Refer to Grounding Instructions.)

• Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.

• Turn off all controls before unplugging.

• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

• Do not handle plug or vacuum cleaner with wet hands.

• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free

of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce airﬂow.

• This vacuum cleaner creates suction and contains a revolving brush roll. Keep hair,

loose clothing, ﬁngers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.

• Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot

ashes.

• Do not use without dust bag in place.

• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

• Belt pulleys can become hot during normal use. To prevent burns, avoid touching the

belt pulley when servicing the drive belt.

• Do not use to pick up ﬂammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline, or use in

areas where they may be present.

• Store your cleaner indoors in a cool, dry area.

• Keep your work area well lighted.

• Unplug electrical appliances before vacuuming them.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE YOU START CHECK THE VOLTAGE

First check the voltage shown on the data plate (see rear view) to make sure that the cleaner is of the correct voltage for your electricity supply. If it is not, do not use the cleaner but refer back to your dealer.

CONNECTING TO YOUR ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

Permanently connected to the cleaner is a mains supply (3-core) cable ﬁtted with a non-rewirable plug incorporating a 13A fuse. In the event of the fuse requiring replacement the fuse cover should be removed using a small screwdriver. The old fuse MUST be replaced by a 13A ASTA approved BS1362 fuse or a BSI approved fuse. The cover must be replaced before the plug is used again. In the event of loss of the fuse cover, replacements can be obtained from your Electrolux dealer or Electrical Retailers and must be of the same colour as indicated by the coloured insert on the base of the plug. If difﬁculty is experienced in obtaining a replacement, contact Electrolux on 08706 055055.

In no circumstances must the plug be used without a correct fuse cover ﬁtted.

If the plug that is ﬁtted to your appliance is not suitable for your socket outlet, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug ﬁtted. Remove the fuse from the cut off plug. The cut off plug should then be disposed of to prevent the hazard of shocks in case it should be plugged into a 13 amp socket in another part of your home. The wires in the mains cable of this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code: Blue: Neutral.

Brown: Live. Green/Yellow: Earth.

As the colours of the wires in the mains cable of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. The wire which is coloured yellow and green must be connected to the terminal which is marked with a letter E or coloured yellow and green. It is in your interest to ensure that the plug is correctly attached to the mains cable. In case of doubt, have it done by a qualiﬁed electrician, as Electrolux cannot regard the repair of faults on the plug connection as a service that can be given free of charge under the terms of the guarantee.

WARNING

If the mains supply cable becomes damaged during cleaning the following action should be taken:

1. Switch off and remove the plug from the socket outlet.

2. Examine the mains supply cable for damage (only after removing the plug from the socket outlet).

3. If there is any sign of damage to the supply cable it MUST be renewed. The repair MUST be carried out by

Electrolux Service Staff or a similar qualiﬁed person.

4. NEVER use the machine with a damaged mains supply cable. The wire which is coloured yellow and green must be connected to the terminal which is marked with a letter E or

coloured yellow and green.

DANGER

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of an equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualiﬁed electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it will not ﬁt the outlet, have proper outlet installed by a qualiﬁed technician.

SERVICE

Should you require service on your Electrolux cleaner, please telephone 08706 055055.

Important - in the event of the mains supply cable of this cleaner requiring replacement, we recommend that this be carried out by a Electrolux Service Agent.

DO NOT OIL the motor or the brush roll at any time. The bearings are permanently lubricated and sealed.

Rating Plate

The model, type, and serial numbers are indicated on the rating plate located on the underneath side of the cleaner. For prompt and complete service information, always refer to these numbers when inquiring about service.
