HOW TO MAINTAIN CLEANING EFFICIENCY AND AVOID
ACCIDENTS
• Be sure to replace the filter after disposing of the dust.
If the cleaner is used without replacing its filter, dust will be sucked directly
into the mechanical parts and may damage the motor.
• Do not block the airflow.
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 the cleaner,
as a hazard may result.
• Do not use the cleaner to pick up wet dirt, and do not use the cleaner in a wet
and moist place as moisture will damage the motor and other mechanical parts.
• To clean the cleaner body and attachments, wipe them with a soapsudssoaked
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 :
Electrical shock could occur if used outdoors or on wet surfaces.
Before you plug in your Hitachi Vacuum Cleaner, make sure that the voltage
indicated on the rating plate located on the back of the vacuum cleaner is the
same as your local power supply.
