
Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the cable,
and be careful not to damage the cable when withdrawing
the plug from the socket. Keep the cable away from sharp
edges and do not let it get squashed, for example, under a
door. Avoid running the vacuum cleaner over the cable.
This could damage the cable, plug or socket. The appli-
ance must not be used if any of these have suffered dam-
age.

When vacuuming, in particular fine dust, e.g. sawdust,
sand, plaster, flour, talcum powder etc., electrostatic
charges build up naturally. Under certain conditions these
charges will be released. To avoid the unpleasant effects of
these discharges, a metal inlay has been incorporated into
the underside of the handle. Please make sure that you
keep your hand in constant contact with this metal strip
during vacuuming.

Do not let the vacuum cleaner, the Electrobrush, the
electro telescopic suction tube and the electro suction
hose get wet. Clean only with a dry cloth or slightly damp
cloth when disconnected from the mains supply.

The Electrobrush, electro telescopic suction tube and
the electro suction hose contain electrical cables. The plug
connectors must not come in contact with water. Danger
of electric shock. They should only be cleaned with a dry
cloth.
