When using this appliance, all of the basic security instructions should be observed,
in particular the following:
Before using, all the components should be correctly attached.
Warning: working with water together with electrical appliances demands the utmost care!
When connecting or disconnecting the main power supply, make sure your hands are dry.
The suction cleaner should never be used as a dry suction cleaner, only for sucking up liquid materials!
The suction cleaner should only be used by suitably trained or experienced persons.
Warning!
You should never use the suction cleaner to suck up explosive or poisonous liquids, glowing ashes or petrol (danger of an
explosion).
Warning, extremely dangerous: the suction head should never be dipped into water or any other liquid. Never hold the suction
head under running water and always protect it from being splashed!
When cleaning, always disconnect the power supply and then clean the suction head with a damp cloth.
Always clean the appliance after you have finished working with it. Never wait until you are about to start work before cleaning
the appliance!
Never reach into the appliance while it is running!
Before starting work, always completely unroll the power cable. Never use the power cable to pull the appliance.
Check carefully that the power cable is not trapped, squashed or has been driven over. This could damage the insulation.
Only connect up the appliance to an officially installed 230 V main socket with earth contact.
If you need to use an extension cable, make sure that the extension cable is suitable for use with the suction cleaner. With cable
drums, the cable must be completely unrolled. (Danger of overheating).
Remove the mains power plug from the power supply:
To clean the suction cleaner
To clean the waste pump
To empty the container
If the appliance is not working properly
When the appliance is no longer being used
Please note:
The suction cleaner is supplied with an automatic cut-out. The suction cleaner will cease to work if the liquid in the container
reaches a level which is too high, thus activating the cut-out. Remove any dirt or foreign objects in front of the suction opening
of the suction pump (Remove the appliance from the main power supply).
Never put your hand in the suction opening when the suction pump is running.
When working, the suction cleaner develops a high level of suction power, never touch the suction opening.
Never touch humans or animals with the suction opening!
If the appliance falls over when working, immediately disconnect from the power supply. Before resuming work, make
absolutely sure that no liquid has got into the suction head.
Regularly check the suction cleaner for damage.
The appliance should not be used if the power supply cable or any other part of the appliance is damaged (as the result of falling
over).
Never try to open the appliance yourself or replace the power supply cable. Repairs should only be carried out by the
manufacturer. Repairs which are not carried out properly can cause damage or injuries to the user.
Before disconnecting the power plug from the power socket, switch the appliance off with the ON/OFF switch.
Never pull on the power cable, remove the plug from the socket by hand in order to disconnect from the main electricity supply.
If it is raining, the appliance should only be used under a roof.
The suction cleaner should never be used below the level of the water. There is danger of back-flooding and a flooding of the
appliance itself and the building.
If the end of the discharge hose is higher than the suction cleaner, a non-return valve should be installed between the suction
cleaner and the hose connection in order to avoid water flowing back into the suction cleaner (Danger of flooding)
Improper or inappropriate use will invalidate any guarantee from the manufacturer.
