,
Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the electricity supply
for maintenance work and for
cleaning. Switch off at the wall
socket and remove the plug (pull on
the plug, not the cable).
External surfaces of the vacuum
cleaner and all plastic accessories can
be cleaned with a dry cloth or a slightly
damp cloth or with a proprietary
cleaner suitable for plastic.
,
Do not use an abrasive cleaner,
a glass cleaner or an all-purpose
cleaner.
Because of their chemical
composition they could cause
serious damage to the plastic
casing.
The dust compartment can, if
necessary, be cleaned using a
duster, dusting brush or, if available, a
second vacuum cleaner to suck the
dust out.
,
Never immerse the vacuum
cleaner in water or let it get wet. If
moisture gets into the appliance
there is the risk of an electric shock.
