Safety cut-out

If the cleaner overheats, a motor protection thermostat will
automatically switch the motor off. If this happens, switch the cleaner
off, unplug from the power supply, and leave the cleaner to cool for at
least 60 minutes. Check the airways for blockages, empty the dust
canister and clean the filters before restarting.

Electrical requirements

Check that the voltage on the rating plate of your appliance
corresponds with your house electricity supply which must be
A.C. (Alternating Current).
This product does not need to be earthed as it is a double
insulated product.
UK only
If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug
supplied with this appliance, the plug should be removed and the
appropriate one fitted.
WARNING: The plug removed from the mains lead, if severed,
must be destroyed, as a plug with a bared flexible cord is
hazardous if engaged into a live socket outlet.
IMPORTANT: If you cut off the plug and let go of the cable, it
will rewind into the machine, therefore you must pull out a
length of cable and secure it before cutting the plug off and
re-fitting a new one.
Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug require changing, a 13 amp
BS1362 fuse must be fitted.
