For safety reasons, only authorised after-sales service
personnel are permitted to carry out repairs and fit
replacement parts to the vacuum cleaner.
The vacuum cleaner should be protected from moisture
and sources of heat.
Switch off the vacuum cleaner when it is not in use.
At the end of its life, the vacuum cleaner should be dis-
posed of in an appropriate manner.
For safety reasons, vacuum cleaners with a power rating
of more than 2300 W are fitted with a temperature safety
switch.
This automatically switches off the vacuum cleaner if it is
blocked and overheating.
Unplug the power cord from the mains and make sure
that the nozzle, suction pipe and hose are not blocked.
Also check whether the filter needs changing.
Having cleared the blockage, leave the vacuum cleaner
to cool down for at least one hour. It can then be
switched back on again.

Disposal information

Packaging
The packaging is designed to protect the vacuum clean-
er from being damaged during transport.
It is made of environmentally-friendly materials and can
be recycled.
Dispose of packaging that is no longer required at an
appropriate recycling point.
Used vacuum cleaners
Used vacuum cleaners still contain many recyclable
materials.
Therefore, please take used vacuum cleaners to your
retailer or recycling centre so that they can be recycled.
For current disposal methods, please enquire at your
appliance dealership or local council.
Please note
!
Only connect the appliance to a socket rated for at least
16 amps.
If a fuse is tripped when you switch on the vacuum
cleaner, this may be because other electrical appliances
which have a high current draw are connected to the
same power circuit.
To prevent the fuse from tripping, select the lowest
power setting before switching the vacuum cleaner on,
and increase the power only once it is running.
