1.1 Important Safety Advice

When using electrical equipment basic safety
precautions should be followed including the
following.

• Read all instructions carefully before use.

• Before using the appliance, check that the

mains power voltage corresponds with the
voltage shown on the data plate.

• Do not leave machine unattended when
plugged in.

• Keep children and unauthorised persons
away from the machine when in use.

• Do not leave the machine connected to the
electricity supply when not in use, always
remove the plug from the socket-outlet.

• Do not operate switches or touch the mains
plug with wet hands as this may cause electric
shock.

• Switch off the machine before removing the
plug.

• When unplugging pull the plug, not the supply
cord.

• Do not operate the machine with a damaged
supply cord or plug, or after the machine
malfunctions or is damaged in any way.
Contact an authorised Service Agent for
repair or adjustment.

• The plug of the power supply must be
removed from the socket-outlet before
commencing cleaning of the machine or
undertaking maintenance operations.

• The power supply cord must be regularly
inspected for signs of damage. If the power
supply cord is damaged, it has to be replaced.

• Do not use to pick up moisture or any liquids.

• Do not use where hazardous dust is present.

• Do not use in an explosive atmosphere.

• Do not use to vacuum up sharp objects.

• Do not pick up oil or other flammable material.

• Take care when using machine near the top

of stairs to avoid overbalancing.

• Do not use the appliance to vacuum lighted
cigarettes, hot ashes and other combustible
objects,

• Do not use the appliance to vacuum tiny
particles like cement or plaster dust as this will
shorten life of the motors.

• Do not block air flow, blocking the suction in
any way (blocked filters, blocked hose or full
dust bag) will decrease the efficiency and will
shorten the life of motor.

power cable.
