Morphy Richards Goblin User Manual

Replacing the micro filters
The micro-filters must be cleaned everytime the bag is changed to remove the fine dust particles collected. This can be done by shaking them.
However, after approximately 5 dustbag changes, the filters should be replaced.
The motor protection filter is found in the dustbag compartment. With the dustbag removed, release the filter from the securing flap and clean or replace.
The exhaust filter is located behind the exhaust filter outlet cover
. To remove,
unclip the cover, remove the filter and clean or replace.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate without a micro filter fitted.
Care and maintenance
Your cleaner is manufactured to withstand normal day-to-day use, but an occasional wipe over with a damp cloth will help maintain its good looks. Abrasive cleaners should not be used.
Purchasing new dust bags and filters
Use original Goblin bags and filters. Replacement packs can be purchased from specialist retailers. If you have difficulty, call the number on the front of this booklet.

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 off the plug and refitting a new one.
WARNING: The plug removed from the
mains lead, if severed, must be destroyed as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged into a live socket outlet.
Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug require
replacement, a BS1362 13 amp fuse must be fitted.
