Please note
The mains socket must be protected by at least a
16-amp fuse.
If a fuse is tripped when you switch on the vacuum
cleaner, this may be because other electrical applian-
ces which have a high connected load are connected
to the same power circuit at the same time.
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.

Instructions on disposal

„ Packaging
The packaging is designed to protect the vacuum
cleaner from being damaged during transportation.
It is made of environmentally friendly materials and
can therefore be recycled. Dispose of packaging that
is no longer required at an appropriate recycling
point.
„ Old appliances
Old appliances still contain many valuable materi-
als. You should therefore take appliances that have
reached the end of their service life to your retailer
or recycling centre so that they can be recycled. For
current disposal methods, enquire at a retailer or
your local council.
„ Disposal of filters and dust bags
Filters and dust bags are manufactured from envi-
ronmentally friendly materials. Provided they do
not contain substances that are not permitted in
household waste, you can dispose of them with your
normal household waste.
