Morphy Richards VC73270 User Manual

Bagless cylinder vacuum cleaner

Please read and keep these instructions

Dust canister

It is important to regularly empty the canister, even if it does not appear full.

Filters

It is important that the dust canister pleated/mesh filter is tapped and brushed clean over a dustbin each time the dust canister is emptied, this allows air through the appliance. Wash the canister filters regularly in luke-warm water and allow to air dry before re-fitting.

Blockages

Check nozzles, tubes and hose and dust canister connector for blockages or partial blockages that may impair the performance of the cleaner.

Eco switch and air-flow control

When maximum suction is required, make sure the air-flow control is closed and the Eco Switch is set to MAX.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The use of any electrical appliance requires the following common sense safety rules.

Primarily there is danger of injury or death and secondly the danger of damage to the appliance.

Please read these instructions before using the cleaner.

Location

• Do not use or keep this product outside.

• Do not store the appliance near hot surfaces eg. ovens or heating appliances.

Mains lead

• Do not allow the mains lead to become strained or run this appliance over it.

• If the electrical cable becomes damaged, the cable assembly must be replaced. Do not attempt this task yourself, contact the helpline number that is found at the bottom of the page.

Personal safety

• WARNING: Keep loose clothing, hair, fingers etc. away from the turbo nozzle during use.

• WARNING: When using the cable rewind, always hold the plug as the cable will rewind quickly.

• The plug must be removed from the wall socket before cleaning or maintaining the appliance.

• Never use in the presence of explosive liquid or vapours.

• Never pick up inflammable or poisonous liquids such as petrol, copier toner or other volatile substances. Never pick up acids, asbestos or asbestos dust.

• Never touch the plug or cable with wet hands.

• Unprofessional repairs can be dangerous for users.

• The appliance must never be left running unsupervised.

• This appliance is intended for domestic use only. Misuse or use for commercial or any other purpose will render the guarantee invalid.

• Always disconnect the appliance from the mains supply after use or prior to emptying, cleaning or maintaining.

• To protect against fire, electric shock and personal injury, do not immerse cord, plug or cleaner in water or other liquid.

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Product safety

• Never use the appliance without the filters being installed.

• Never use the appliance to vacuum hot ashes, broken glass, sharp objects or liquids.

• Use only Morphy Richards spare parts and accessories.

• Never modify the cleaner in any way.

Children

• Children do not understand the dangers associated with operating electrical appliances. Never allow children to use this appliance.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance, or stumble over the power cord.

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.
