sécurité, notamment les suivantes.
LIRE ET COMPRENDRE TOUTES LES DIRECTIVES AVANT D'UTILISER L'APPAREIL.
AVERTISSEMENT : Se conformer aux mesures suivantes afin d'éviter les risques
d'incendie, de secousses électriques ou de blessures.
• Ne pas laisser l'appareil branché sans surveillance. Le débrancher lorsqu'on ne s'en sert
pas ou qu'on doit le réparer.
• Utiliser à l'intérieur seulement. Ne pas s'en servir sur des surfaces mouillées.
• Ne pas utiliser ni ranger l'appareil à l'extérieur ou sur des surfaces mouillées. Afin de ne pas
trébucher, ranger l'aspirateur après chaque utilisation.
• Surveiller avec vigilance lorsque des enfants se trouvent à proximité de tout appareil. Il ne
s'agit pas d'un jouet.
• Utiliser seulement aux fins décrites dans le présent guide. Utiliser seulement des
accessoires recommandés par le fabricant.
• Ne pas utiliser un appareil dont la fiche ou le cordon est abîmé, qui présente un problème
de fonctionnement, qui est laissé à l'extérieur, qui est tombé dans l'eau ou qui est
endommagé. Le rapporter au centre de service autorisé de la région
• Ne pas tirer sur le cordon, ni transporter l'appareil par le cordon. Ne pas se servir du cordon
comme d'une poignée. Ne pas refermer une porte sur le cordon ni tirer sur le cordon
lorsqu'il se trouve près d'une arête ou d'un coin tranchant. Ne pas faire passer l'appareil sur
le cordon. Éloigner le cordon des surfaces chauffées.
• Ne pas tirer sur le cordon pour débrancher l'appareil. Il faut plutôt saisir la fiche.
• Ne pas manipuler la fiche ni l'appareil lorsque les mains sont mouillées.
• Ne rien insérer dans les orifices. Ne pas utiliser lorsque les orifices sont bloqués; s'assurer
qu'il n'y a aucune accumulation de poussière, de charpie, de cheveux ou de tout autre
corps qui pourrait réduire le débit d'air.
