Do not use the vacuum cleaner if it is

At the end of its life, the vacuum

For safety reasons, vacuum
cleaners with an output of 2,000 watts
or more are fitted with a temperature
safety switch, which automatically
switches the vacuum cleaner off if it is
blocked and overheating. Unplug the
power cord from the mains and make
sure that the nozzle, tube and hose
are not blocked. Also check whether
the dust bag needs changing.
Having cleared the blockage, leave
the vacuum cleaner to cool down for

Disposal information
Packaging
The packaging is designed to protect
the vacuum cleaner from being
damaged during transportation.
It is made of environment-friendly
materials and can be recycled.
Dispose of unneeded packaging at
the appropriate recycling points.
Used vacuum cleaners
Old appliances still contain many
recyclable materials.
Therefore, please take used
appliances to your retailer or recycling
centre so that they can be recycled.
For current disposal methods, please
enquire at your appliance dealership
or local council.
!
Please note
The mains socket must be protected
by a 16A fuse.
If a fuse should blow when you switch
on the vacuum cleaner, this may be
because other electrical appliances
which have a high current draw are
connected to the same power circuit.
To prevent the fuse from tripping,
select the lowest power setting before
switching the vacuum cleaner on, and
increase the power only once it is
running.
