Safety instructions
Electrical safety
• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such
as pipes, radiators, cookers, stoves and refriger-
ators. There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed.
• Do not expose the vacuum cleaner to rain
or wet conditions. Water entering a vacuum
cleaner will increase the risk of electric shock. In
such instances, remove the battery immediately,
dry the device and send it to a repair service for
checking.
• WARNING: If foam or liquid escapes from the
machine, switch off immediately and remove the
battery.
Personal safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do not use a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medi-
cation. A moment of inattention while operating
the power tool may result in serious personal
injury.
• Always wear your personal protective equip-
ment (PPE) including safety glasses. Depending
on the type of power tool you are using and
its purpose, wearing safety equipment such as
a dust mask, slip-resistant safety shoes, a hard
hat or hearing protection will reduce the risk of
injury.
• Never use the vacuum cleaner in extremely
dusty conditions.
• Misuse can result in liquid escaping from the
battery. Avoid contact with the liquid. Escaping
battery fluid can cause skin irritation or burns.
If contact occurs, rinse off the affected area
immediately with water. In the event of the liquid
coming into contact with the eyes, rinse the eyes
immediately with plenty of water and consult a
doctor.
General information on using power
tools/vacuum cleaners
• Store power tools out of reach of children when
not in use. Do not allow persons who are not
familiar with the tool or its instructions to operate
it. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
inexperienced persons.
