See page 5 for more details.

Blockages

Check nozzles, tubes and hose for blockages.

Safety cut-out

If the cleaner overheats a motor protection thermostat will automatically switch
the cleaner off. If this happens, switch the cleaner off, unplug from power supply
and leave the cleaner to cool for at least 60 minutes. Check the airways for

ELECTRICAL
REQUIREMENTS

Check that the voltage on the
rating plate of your appliance
corresponds with your house
electricity supply which must
be A.C. (Alternating Current).

If the socket outlets in your
home are not suitable for the
plug supplied with this
appliance, the plug should be
removed and the appropriate
one fitted.

If you cut off the plug and let
go of the cable, it will rewind
into the machine, therefore you
must pull out a length of cable
and secure it before cutting the
plug off and re-fitting a new
one.

WARNING: The plug
removed from the mains
lead, if severed, must be
destroyed, as a plug with a
bared flexible cord is
hazardous if engaged into
a live socket outlet.

Should the fuse in the 13 amp
plug require changing, a 13
amp BS1362 fuse must be
fitted.
