The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by

Safety Instructions. This appliance is

Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to

Unplug the vacuum when
changing accessories, especially
the Turbobrush and Electrobrush.
Never use the vacuum without the
dustbag or filters in place. It may
be damaged.
Do not vacuum liquids or damp
dirt. This will cause major faults
and could seriously impair the
operation and electrical safety of the
appliance. Wait until freshly cleaned or
shampooed carpets and floor
coverings are completely dry before
attempting to vacuum.
Do not vacuum anything that is
burning or smoking such as
cigarettes, matches or hot ashes. The

Do not vacuum toner dust. Toner,
such as that used in printers and
photocopiers can conduct electricity.
The filter system in the vacuum cleaner
may not filter it completely and
therefore toner could be blown back
into the air by the fan.
Do not vacuum items which are
heavy, hard or have sharp edges.
They could cause a blockage and
damage the appliance.
