SAFETY ADVICE

EN
For your safety, this appliance complies with the applicable standards and regulations (Low Voltage,
Electromagnetic compatibility, Environment Directives, ...).
1 • OPERATING CONDITIONS
• Your vacuum cleaner is an electrical appliance: it must be used under normal operating conditions.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capacities or by persons lacking experience or knowledge unless they are supervised or given
prior instructions concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
• Never leave the appliance running without surveillance.
• Do not hold the nozzle or the end of the tube near the eyes or the ears.
• Do not suck up warm substances (embers), large sharp fragments (glass), harmful products (solvents,
scouring agents), inflammable and explosive (based on petrol, alcohol) substances.
• Never immerse the appliance into water, throw water on the device or store it outdoors.
• Do not use the appliance: if it fell and it presents visible damage marks or operation faults. In this case,
do not unscrew the appliance but send it to the nearest Approved Service Centre or contact the Rowenta
customer service department (see the contact information on the last page).
• In case you encounter problems in obtaining the attachments and the filters for this vacuum cleaner,
contact the Rowenta customer service department (see the contact information on the last page).
• Check that all the filters are well positioned.
• Never operate your vacuum cleaner without foam material: motor protection filter.
2 • POWER SUPPLY
• Check if the operating voltage (tension) of your vacuum cleaner corresponds to that of your electrical
installation.
• Unplug the appliance by removing the socket, without pulling the cord: immediately after use, before
each attachment change, before each cleaning, maintenance or filter changing operation.
• Do not use the device if the cord is faulty. The cord of your vacuum cleaner must be replaced only by
an Approved Service Centre because special tools are necessary to carry out any repairing operation in
order to avoid any danger.
• Before each use, the cord must be fully unrolled.
• Do not wedge the cord and do not pass it over cutting edges.
• If you are using an electrical extension tube, ensure that it is in good condition and it has the section
adapted to the power of your vacuum cleaner.
• Never unplug the appliance by pulling the cord.
• Do not move the vacuum cleaner by pulling the cord; the appliance must be moved using its carrying handle.
• Do not use the cord or the hose to lift and transport the appliance.
• Stop and unplug your vacuum cleaner after each use.
• Always stop and unplug your vacuum cleaner before its maintenance or cleaning.
• Keep the shampoo out of the reach of children. Do not swallow. Avoid contact with the eyes and
mucous membranes. In the event of any accidental spray, wash abundantly with fresh water.
3 • REPAIRING WORKS
The repairing works must only be performed by specialists using original spare parts. Repairing the ap-
pliance by yourself can be dangerous for the user and cancels the warranty.
