When using the vacuum cleaner, basic safety precautions
should always be observed, including the following:
1. Only use the vacuum cleaner indoors on dry
surfaces. Do not handle the plug or vacuum cleaner
with wet hands. Do not use outdoors or on wet
surfaces.
2. Turn off the vacuum cleaner controls before
connecting or disconnecting from the mains supply.
3. Always unplug the vacuum cleaner before
connecting or disconnecting the vacuum hose and
accessories.
4. Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
5. The 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 use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
6. Use only as described in this manual.
Use only the manufacturer’s recommended
attachments.
7. Do not use the vacuum cleaner if it has been
dropped, damaged, left outdoors or dropped into
water. Do not use the vacuum cleaner with a
damaged cord or plug. If the supply cord or plug is
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer
or a recommended Service Agent to avoid hazard
and invalidating the guarantee.
8. Do not pull or carry by the cord/hose. Do not use the
cord/hose as a handle, close a door on the cord/hose
or pull the cord/hose around sharp edges or corners.
Do not run the vacuum cleaner over the cord/hose.
Keep the cord/hose away from heated surfaces.
9. Do not put any objects into openings. Do not use
with any openings blocked and do not restrict air
flow. Keep all openings free of dust, lint, hair or
anything that may reduce airflow.
10. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of the
body away from openings and moving parts.
11. Do not pick up hot coals, cigarette butts, matches or
any hot, smoking or burning objects.
12. Do not pick up flammable or combustible materials

17. Keep vacuuming area well lit.
18. Store the vacuum cleaner indoors in a cool, dry area.
19. Turn off the on/off switch before unplugging the
vacuum cleaner.
20. Only use CE-approved 13 amp extension cords. Nonapproved extension cords may overheat. Care should
be taken to arrange the cord so that the cord cannot
be pulled or tripped over.
WARNING: Always switch off and unplug the
vacuum cleaner from the electrical outlet
before assembling, opening or emptying the dirt
container, or before connecting/disconnecting the
attachments.
CAUTION: The vacuum cleaner is a very
powerful unit. Before plugging the cord into
the electrical outlet, make sure the switch is in the
‘off’ position.
IMPORTANT: If the inlet, hose or telescopic
tube is blocked, switch off the vacuum cleaner
and remove the blockage(s) before re-starting the
vacuum cleaner.
IMPORTANT: Cleaning filters regularly
maintains vacuum performance. Make sure all
filters are replaced back into the vacuum cleaner
before using.
