sAfety instructions - during use
• Never use the appliance outdoors.
• Never use the appliance in a humid room.
• Make sure that your hands are dry before touching the appliance,
power cord or plug.
• The power cord has a yellow and a red mark. Pull out the power cord
to the yellow mark. Never pull out the power cord beyond the red
mark.
• Guide the power cord whilst it rewinds onto the reel, since otherwise
the cord
could become tangled or the plug could strike the back of
the appliance. Take hold of the power cord near the mark, and allow
it to gently slide through your fingers back into the appliance.
• Make sure that the dust bag does not become pinched between the
cover and the motor unit. This could damage the appliance and/or the
dust bag.
• Do not use the appliance to suck up the following objects:
• glowing or burning objects
• glass splinters or other sharp objects
• residues of plaster, cement, stone, soot, and similar
• liquids, or moist dirt.
These objects could cause serious damage to the appliance and the
filter system, and make it unsafe to use.
• Do not use the vacuum cleaner on wet rugs and carpets.
• Never insert objects in the air-exhaust vents.
• Make sure that the suction and exhaust openings are open, and that
the filters are not blocked. Blockages will cause the appliance to
overheat. Switch off the vacuum cleaner immediately! Once you have
remedied the problem, wait 20 to 30 minutes to allow the vacuum
cleaner to cool down completely. The vacuum cleaner will then be
ready for use again.
• Keep the nozzle and the tubes away from the body while the vacuum
cleaner is running. This could cause serious injury, for example to the
eyes or ears.
• Never roll the appliance over the cord.
• Switch off the appliance and remove the plug from the wall socket in
the event of a malfunction during use, and before filling or emptying the
appliance, cleaning the appliance, fitting or removing an accessory, or
storing the appliance after use.
• Do not pick up the appliance if it falls into water. Remove the plug
from the wall socket immediately. Do not use the appliance any more.
• Never immerse the appliance, the power cord or the plug in water or
other liquid. After washing the filters make sure they are thoroughly
dry before returning them to the appliance.
