HOW TO MAINTAIN CLEANING
EFFICIENCY AND AVOID ACCIDENTS
● The plug of the power supply cord should be removed from the
socket outlet before cleaning the appliance or under-taking
maintenance operations.
● If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in
order to avoid a hazard.
● Be sure to replace a new cloth bag after disposing of the full one.
There is a device which prevents the bag compartment lid from
being closed when the cloth bag has not been replaced. Do not
tamper with this to use without bags as dust will be sucked directly
into the mechanical parts and may damage the motor.
● Do not use the cleaner to pick up wet dirt, and avoid using the
cleaner in a wet and moist place as moisture may damage the
motor and other mechanical parts.
● Do not pick up sharp objects, eg. nails, to prevent damage to the
vacuum cleaner.
● Do not block the air flow.
Any blockages or obstructions to the suction inlet, rug-and-floor
tool, extension pipe, hose, etc. or the exhaust air outlet can cause
loss of power and motor overheating.
● Do not pick up matches, fireplace ashes, or smoking material
with cleaner, as a possible fire hazard may result.
● To clean the cleaner body and attachments, wipe them with a
soapsuds-soaked cloth, and avoid using spirits.
● Avoid cleaning the switch part with a wet cloth and splashing water
on it as moisture may cause a short circuit.
● The carbon brushes of the motor are of special composition.
When replacing the defaced carbon brushes, it is necessary to
use the Hitachi special carbon brushes for the Hitachi Vacuum
Cleaner.
● Your vacuum cleaner is not a toy. Do not allow children to play
with the cleaner. Do not leave cleaner connected to an electrical
outlet and leave it unattended.
● Warning; Electric shock could occur if used outdoors or on wet
surfaces.
