2. Safety Information

For Household Use Only

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.

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, return the vacuum cleaner to a Vax
Authorised Service Agent or suitably qualified
person for examination, repair or adjustment.

8. Do not pull or carry by the cord. Do not use the cord
as a handle, close a door on the cord or pull the cord
around sharp edges or corners. Do not run the
vacuum cleaner over the cord. Keep the cord away
from heated surfaces.

9. Do not handle the plug or vacuum cleaner with wet
hands. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

10. 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.
