Electrical safety:

A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack; never use the charger with another appliance or attempt to charge this product with another charger.

Before use, check the charger cord for signs of damage or ageing. A damaged or entangled charger cord increases the risk of fire and electric shock.

Do not abuse the charger cord.

Never carry the charger by the cord.

Do not pull the cord to disconnect from a socket; grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.

Don’t wrap the cord around the charger when storing.

Keep the charger cord away from hot surfaces and sharp edges.

Do not store or charge the appliance outdoors.

The charger must be removed from the socket before removing the battery,

cleaning or maintaining the appliance.

Battery safety:

This appliance includes Li-Ion batteries; do not incinerate batteries or expose to high temperatures, as they may explode.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

In an emergency situation contact professional help immediately!

Leaks from the battery cells can occur under extreme conditions. Do not touch any liquid that leaks from the battery. If the liquid gets on the skin wash immediately with soap and water. If the liquid gets into the eyes, flush them immediately with clean water for a

minimum of 10 minutes and seek medical attention. Wear gloves to handle the battery and dispose of immediately in accordance with local regulations.

Shorting the battery terminals may cause burns or fire.

When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that could make a connection from one terminal to another.

When you dispose of the appliance remove the battery and dispose of the battery safely in accordance with local regulations.

Service:

Before using the appliance and after any impact, check for signs of wear or damage and repair as necessary.

This appliance has been designed for domestic dry vacuum cleaning only.

Do not pick up liquids or use on wet surfaces.

Do not pick up anything that is flammable, burning or smoking.

Use only as described in this manual.

Don’t use on concrete, tarmacadam or other rough surfaces.

The brush bar may damage certain floor surfaces. Before vacuuming flooring, rugs or carpets, check the flooring manufacturer’s recommended

cleaning instructions.

May damage delicate fabrics or upholstery. Care should be taken on loose-weave carpets and coverings or where there are loose threads. If in doubt please test on an inconspicuous area first.

The BISSELL AirRam has been designed to clean a wide variety of floor surfaces without the need to change settings.

However some surfaces such as delicate loose-pile rugs or carpets, tasselled rug edges or damaged carpets with exposed threads are not suitable for cleaning with a rotary brush. The AirRam can still be used to clean such surfaces by removing the brush bar as shown on page 11 and using the supplied plug in the brush bar hole. This setting should also be used to give the best performance on hard floors with deep crevices.

WARNING:

Do not use water, solvents, or polishes to clean the outside of the appliance; wipe clean with a dry cloth.

Never immerse the unit in water and do not clean in a dish washer.

Never use the appliance without the filter fitted.
