WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:
Check the voltage rating of the vacuum cleaner before

connecting the power cord to an electrical outlet. Your
power source should correspond with the voltage rating
plate located on the underside of the vacuum. Use only
household AC outlets. Never use DC power sources. If you
are not sure of your home's voltage supply, consult a
qualified electrician. Connecting the vacuum cleaner to a
higher voltage than indicated in these instructions may
result in damage to the vacuum cleaner or injury.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a

polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.
Technical safety
The vacuum cleaner operates at 25.2 V.

It is classified as a class II
class III appliance in its construction.
This appliance is supplied by a safety extra-low voltage
(SELV) power source where the voltage is low enough to
protect users from the risk of electrical shock. A Class II
charger is used for supplying power to charge the vacuum
cleaner.
Compare the connection data on the data plate of the

charger (voltage and frequency) with that of the electricity
supply. This data must match exactly. Without
modifications, the charger is suitable for 50 Hz and 60 Hz.
The electrical outlet must be fitted with a 16 A or 10 A

slow-blow fuse.
