be used unless a 13 amp (ASTA approved to BS 1362) fuse is tted in

the carrier contained in the plug. If for any reason the plug is cut off,

When using the hose attachment, please ensure that vacuum remains flat
and level on the floor surface to prevent contact from the brush roller with the
floor surface. If the vacuum does not remain flat and level, this could result in
damage to the flooring.

To reduce risk of injury and potential damage to floor surface, do not use the

vacuum on a staircase. Always use vacuum from the bottom of the staircase

and ensure that the vacuum remains securely flat on the floor surface.
