● Used vacuum cleaners
Used vacuum cleaners still contain many valuable
materials. Therefore, please take your used vacuum
cleaner to your retailer or recycling centre to be
recycled. For current disposal methods, please en-
quire at your retailer or your local council.
● Disposal of fi lters and dust bags
Filters and dust bags are made from environmental-
ly friendly materials. As long as they do not contain
substances that are not permitted to be disposed of
in the household rubbish, you can dispose of them
with your normal household rubbish.
PLEASE NOTE
The mains socket must be protected by at
least a 16 amp fuse. If a fuse should blow
when you switch on the appliance, 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 blowing, select the lowest
power setting before switching the appliance on, and
increase the power only once it is running.
CARE
Always switch off the vacuum cleaner and disconnect
the power cord from the mains before cleaning the
vacuum cleaner.
The vacuum cleaner and plastic accessories can be
cleaned with a commercial plastic cleaner.
Do not use a scourer, glass-cleaning agent or
allpurpose cleaning product.
Never immerse the vacuum cleaner in water.
The dust compartment can, if necessary, be cleaned
with a second vacuum cleaner or simply wiped with a
dry cloth or dusting brush.
