• Check the voltage stated on the vacuum cleaner before connecting the power cable to the mains power
supply; the mains voltage needs to be the same as the voltage stated on the appliance rating plate,
which is located on the bottom of the vacuum cleaner. If you are not sure of your power supply voltage,
please check with a qualified electrician.
• A damaged vacuum cleaner can be dangerous. Check the packaging, the vacuum cleaner and the
attachments for any signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.
• Never leave the vacuum cleaner plugged into the mains power. Unplug the cleaner when not in use or
before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance to the appliance itself.
• Only use the vacuum cleaner on dry surfaces; do not use it outdoors, on wet surfaces or to clean up any
type of liquid. Do not use this appliance to clean up liquids as this could reduce the electrical safety of the
cleaner. This also applies in the case of carpets that have just been washed: wait until they are dry.
• Do not allow the vacuum cleaner to be used as a toy. Take care if it is used by or near children.
• If the power cable rewind or the cable itself are damaged, they should be replaced only by an authorised
after-sales assistance service. Never use the vacuum cleaner with a damaged cable or plug.
• If the appliance does not operate correctly or if it has been dropped or damaged, left outdoors or
immersed in water, take it to your retailer or to an aftersales assistance service.
• For any repairs or to purchase parts or accessories, please contact your retailer or an authorised technical
service centre. Do not try to carry out repairs yourself.
• Do not pull or carry the vacuum cleaner by the cable; do not use the cable as a handle; do not close the
cable in doors or pull it across sharp edges or around corners. Never pass the appliance over the cable.
Keep the cable well away from hot surfaces.
