u
doors.
NOTE: Clean the float regularly and check whether it
u
is damaged. Otherwise, the equipment may not function
properly.
If operating the vacuum cleaner in a damp location is
u
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD). Use
of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Connect the vacuum cleaner to a properly earthed
u
power supply system. The socket and extension cable
must have a fully functioning protective conductor.
Always check the vacuum cleaner, cable and plug be-
u
fore use. Do not use the vacuum cleaner if you dis-
cover any damage. Do not open the vacuum cleaner
yourself. It should be repaired exclusively by a quali-
fied professional using only genuine spare parts. Dam-
aged vacuum cleaners, cables and plugs increase the risk
of electric shock.

cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
Pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning or per-
u
forming maintenance on the vacuum cleaner, making
tool adjustments, changing accessories or putting

The vacuum cleaner should be repaired exclusively by

a qualified professional using only genuine spare
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the vacuum
cleaner is maintained.
The vacuum cleaner contains dust
WARNING
particles that pose a risk to health.
Emptying and maintenance procedures, including the
disposal of dust collectors, should only be carried out by
professionals. Suitable protective equipment is re-
quired. Do not operate the vacuum cleaner without the
complete filter system. Otherwise, you are putting your
health at risk.
Before using the equipment for the first time, check
u
that the vacuum hose is in perfect condition. Leave
the vacuum hose fitted to the vacuum cleaner while
doing this so that no dust escapes accidentally. Other-
wise, you may end up inhaling dust particles.
Do not sit on the vacuum cleaner. You can damage the
u
vacuum cleaner this way.
Take care when using the power cable and the vacuum
u
hose. Improper use of these can put other people at risk.
Do not clean the vacuum cleaner by spraying a jet of
u
water directly at it. Water entering the top of the va-
cuum cleaner will increase the risk of electric shock.

If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be
cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an au-
thorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
