• Do not allow nozzles and tubes (when the appliance is switched
10
GB
on) to come within the proximity of the head – danger for eyes
and ears, for example.
• Do not vacuum noxious substances or corrosive or solvent liquids.
• Never operate the appliance in rooms where inflammable
materials are stored or where gases have formed.
• Store the appliance and its attachments in a dry, clean and
enclosed space.
• Materials such as petrol, paint thinner and heating oil can form
explosive gases or mixtures by being subjected to centrifugal air
from the appliance.
• Never vacuum hot ash or glowing objects.
• Check before every use to be sure that you have correctly fitted
the filters required for the specific application.
• Do not vacuum toner dust! Toners such as those used in printers and
copiers, can be electric conductors! Furthermore, it is possible that
the appliance's filter system will not completely filter out toner dust,
and in this way it can enter the air supply of the room.
• Extreme care is required when vacuuming stair carpets with your
appliance. Ensure that the vacuum cleaner stands firmly on the
step and take care that the flexible hose is not stretched beyond
its actual length. When using the vacuum cleaner on stairs,
always ensure that you hold the appliance steady with one
hand.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is switched on.
