Keep the power cord, hair, loose
clothing, fingers and all parts of the

Do not place anything into the
openings of the vacuum cleaner. Do
not use if any openings are blocked;
keep them free of dust, lint, hair, or
anything that may reduce air flow.

cord. A damaged vacuum cleaner can
be dangerous.

Monitor the dustbag change
indicator and inspect all filters regularly.
For best performance, the dustbag and
filters should be replaced when
necessary. A full bag or blocked filter
will reduce the vacuum cleaner's
suction power. A temperature limiter
automatically switches the vacuum
cleaner off if it gets too hot, see
"Frequently asked questions".
