Miele HS09 Vacuum Cleaner User Manual


 
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
non-compliance with these "Important
Safety Instructions". This appliance is
intended strictly for household use only.
This vacuum should not be used to
arrest or retain any hazardous
materials.
Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to
be used as a toy. Close attention is
necessary when used by or near
children.
Do not pull or carry by the cord,
use the cord as a handle, close a
door on the cord, or pull the cord
around sharp edges or corners. Do not
run the appliance over the cord. Keep
the cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not unplug by pulling on the
cord. To unplug, grasp the plug,
not the cord.
Do not handle the plug or vacuum
with wet hands.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers
and all parts of the body away from
openings and moving parts.
Turn off all controls before
unplugging.
Use extra care when cleaning on
stairs.
Floor attachments, accessories
and wands must not be used at
head level to avoid injury to eyes and
ears.
Do not use to pick up flammable or
combustible liquids, such as
gasoline, or use in areas where they
may be present.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to
pick up liquids, as this could impair
the electrical safety of the vacuum
cleaner. Wait for freshly shampooed
carpets to dry.
Do not pick up anything that is
burning or smoking, such as
cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner,
such as that used in printers and
photocopiers, can conduct electricity.
Do not turn on or attempt to
operate the vacuum cleaner unless
a dustbag, dust compartment filter and
exhaust filter are in place. Only use
genuine Miele double-layer dustbags
and filters (see "Maintenance" for
instructions on how to insert the
dustbag and filters.) If a dustbag has
not been inserted, the dust
compartment cover will not close. Do
not use force!
