VI • FOR YOUR SAFETY
Read the instructions for use carefully and keep them in a safe place.
• Your vacuum cleaner is an electrical appliance: it must only be used under normal operating conditions.
The appliance should be used and stored out of the reach of children. Never leave the appliance unattended when it is
switched on. Always keep nozzles and tube ends well away from eyes and ears.
• Make sure that the operating voltage of your vacuum cleaner is the same as your supply voltage - 230-240v.
• Unplug the appliance by removing the plug from the power outlet: immediately after use, before changing accessories,
before maintenance, cleaning or changing the dustbag.
• Do not vacuum wet surfaces, any kinds of liquids, hot substances, ultra-fine substances (plaster, cement, ash, etc.)

cleaners, etc.), inflammable or explosive products (petrol- or alcohol-based).
• Do not immerse the appliance in water, do not project water on the appliance or store it outdoors.

- if it has been dropped and shows signs of damage or functions abnormally.

tools are needed to avoid accidents during repairs.

operational (by unplugging it and cutting off the electricity supply cord).
