• Only use original spare parts and attachments approved by the manufacturer so as not to com-
promise the safety of the appliance.
• Do not vacuum up acids or solvents; these could cause serious damage to the appli-
ance. Above all, do not vacuum up explosive powders or liquids since, if these come
into contact with the internal parts of the appliance, they could explode.
• When in use, the appliance contains pressurised steam; improper use may be danger-
ous. This appliance is for home use only, as indicated in the manual. The manufac-
turer refuses to accept any liability for damages caused through improper or incorrect
use of the appliance.
• Always switch off the appliance at the main switch (8) and unplug it from the mains power
socket before proceeding to fill the boiler tank or performing any cleaning or maintenance
operations on the appliance itself.
• Never direct the steam jet towards people, animals, plants or appliances
• Never direct the steam jet towards the appliance.
• Do not pull the power cord or appliance to remove the plug from the mains power socket.
• Before switching on the boiler tank, make sure that the cap is tightly closed and remove any
water residues from the cavity.
• Never open the safety cap (16) when the boiler tank is pressurised.
• When the appliance is operating, always pick it up by the handle; since it contains a boiler
tank, its surfaces become hot during use.
• Do not vacuum up flammable liquids.
• Do not vacuum up hard or sharp objects; these could damage the appliance.
• Do not use the appliance if the air outlet filter covers are not correctly fitted.
• Make sure all filters are in their seating before starting the appliance.

when it is in an upright position since this could cause the water inside the container (4) to leak
out.
• While filling the boiler tank, take care not to pour any water into the rubber hose. Water inside
the hose could cause the float to remain in the up position, which will prevent the motor from
starting (the red light will continue to flash).
• If the VaporìAspira is used to clean particularly dirty areas where gravel, sand or large
amounts of dust are present, such as garages, terraces, cellars, etc., and in any case, after
intensive use, we recommend that you clean the water container and rubber hose inside it as
described in paragraphs 4.2 and 4.3 of the user's manual.
• Do not leave the appliance exposed to the elements (rain, frost, sun, etc.).
• In the event that you decide to dispose of the appliance, we advise you to make it inoperative
by cutting off the power cord. We also recommend that any parts that could be dangerous be
rendered harmless, especially for children, who may play with the appliance or its parts.
• Packaging must never be left within the reach of children since it is potentially dangerous.
