READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MACHINE
3
1. Do not leave vacuum while plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.
2. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
3. Do not use near small children or pets. Do not allow to be used as a toy. Use of this product by children should always be supervised by an adult.
4. Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer-recommended attachments.
5. Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If vacuum is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, take it to a SEBO service center.
6. Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run vacuum over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
7. Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug – not the cord.
8. Do not plug in if switch is in the “I” (ON) position.
9. Do not use outlets above counters to plug in vacuum – damage to items in the surrounding area could occur.
10. Always carry the vacuum over steps and sills.
11. Do not handle plug or vacuum handle with wet hands.
12. Do not put any object into vacuum openings. Do not use machine with any openings blocked. Keep openings free of lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.
13. Do not re-use filter bags or wash the filters.
14. Do not remove any screws from vacuum.
15. Do not vacuum up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
16. Do not use vacuum without filter bag and/or filters in place.
17. Turn off all machine controls before unplugging.
18. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
19. Do not use machine to vacuum up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they may be present.
20. Machines can cause a fire when operated near flammable vapors or materials. Do not operate this vacuum near flammable fluids, dust or vapors.
21. Maintenance and repairs must be done by qualified personnel.
22. Use only original SEBO replacement parts.
23. Do not use vacuum as a step.
24. If vacuum is used on plush carpet or carpet with thick padding, do not leave machine standing in one place with machine turned on.
25. While the vacuum is in use, the power cord should be unwound from the cable reel at least two thirds of its length. Hold plug when rewinding onto the cord reel. Do not allow plug to whip while rewinding.
26. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from vacuum openings and moving parts. Do not place fingers or other body parts under vacuum unless it is unplugged.
27. Do not place the power head over rug or carpet edges.
28. The vacuum has a manual reset thermal protector. The protector is reset by switching off the vacuum. The thermal protector needs some time to cool down after switching off! Check the vacuum for air blockages or mechanical failures before switching on.
29. Store the vacuum in a dry place at room temperature. When the vacuum is not in use, you should rewind the cord onto the cord reel
30. Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
31. The hose contains electrical wires. Do not use if damaged, cut, or punctured. Avoid picking up sharp objects.
32. Always unplug vacuum before connecting or disconnecting either hose or power head.
33. Use a SEBO power head only in combination with a SEBO vacuum cleaner.
34. Do not connect power head to a malfunctioning or damaged vacuum.
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions must always be followed.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this vacuum cleaner has a polarized plug; one blade is wider than the other. This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Connect only to the outlet type specified on the serial number plate underneath the machine.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

SPECIAL SEBO PRODUCT FEATURES
4
Your SEBO AIRBELT C canister vacuum is among the most technically advanced vacuum cleaners in the world. Some of its unique features are:
S-Class Filtration. Certified by leading Allergy foundations in Europe, the AIRBELT C vacuum provides the
user with S-Class filtration of 99.9% of particles to 0.3 microns. This is accomplished by the SEBO three-step filtration system. First, the three-layer full-size filter bag (a) collects the vast majority of the debris. Then, the remainder of the particles are collected by the hospital-grade microfilter (b). Finally, the micro-exhaust filter (c) cleans the exhaust air that the vacuum emits. The AIRBELT disperses the filtered exhaust air around the canister which provides quiet, gentle air flow. SEBO’s unwavering attention to the complete sealing of the machine ensures no dirt escapes around the microfilters. If the microfilters are changed regularly (every 10­20 bags), the AIRBELT C is perfect for allergy or asthma sufferers.
AIRBELT Shock Absorber. Your SEBO canister vacuum has a unique soft bumper (d) which protects your
furniture, walls and vacuum from damage. The AIRBELT disperses the filtered exhaust air around the canister which provides quiet, gentle air flow. Personalize your canister with a replacement AIRBELT textile cover avail­able in a variety of patterns and colors (part # 6047 AM/01 to 10). See your SEBO Dealer.
Bag Full or Clog Warning Light – Auto Shut-Off. If the vacuum’s airflow pathway becomes restricted
due to a full bag or the existence of a clog, the amber “BAG FULL OR CLOG” light (located on top of the canis­ter near the hose connection) will illuminate. If the user ignores this warning, the suction motor will heat up due to the lack of cooling provided by the airflow. Once the motor reaches a certain temperature it will shut off to protect itself from damage. The user should turn the switch off, unplug the machine and immediately insert a new bag or remove the clog (to remove a clog, refer to the Clog Removal section on page 10). After approxi­mately 30 minutes, the motor will have cooled and the vacuum can be restarted. If the airflow is still restrict­ed, the “BAG FULL OR CLOG” light will again illuminate and the machine will shut off.

Push the neck (6) of the hose (10) into the suction opening of the canister (7). The notch in the suction opening will line up with the raised bar on the neck.

Connect the handle (1) to the top of the telescopic tube (4). Snap in place. To release the telescopic tube (4) from the handle, push the handle release button (3) and slide the handle out.
Attach the head or brush to the bottom of the telescopic tube (4). Insert the bottom of the telescopic tube into the neck of the head or brush (26) until it locks into place; or line up the square hole in the telescopic tube with the notches in the front of the neck, and snap firmly into place. To release a head or brush from the telescopic tube (4), push the release button (9), and pull the head or brush tool off the end of the telescopic tool. The release button (9) is in the same position on all of the heads, brushes and power heads.
