- Safety Precautions:
- Always ensure the voltage on the rating label matches the mains voltage.
- Avoid contact with moving parts.
- Do not immerse the motor assembly, plug, or power cord in water or any other liquid.
- Remove the plug from the socket by gripping the plug, not by pulling the cord.
- Unplug the unit when not in use, before cleaning, or when adding/removing parts.
- Do not use accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
- Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces or place it near heat sources.
- Do not use the appliance on a gas or electric cooking top or near an open flame.
- Use of an extension cord is not recommended; if necessary, ensure it is suited to the appliance's power consumption and placed safely.
- Do not carry the appliance by the power cord.
- Do not leave the appliance unattended during use.
- Operate on a smooth, even, stable surface.
- Ensure the switch is in the "Off" position after each use.
- Do not operate with wet hands or without shoes.
- Do not place objects into any openings or operate if any openings are blocked.
- Keep the unit free from dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce airflow.
- Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and other body parts away from openings due to suction.
- Do not pick up burning, smoking, or flammable objects (cigarettes, matches, hot ash).
- Do not pick up flammable or combustible liquids (gasoline) or use in areas where these liquids are present.
- Do not use the unit without the filter in place.
- Motor Cooling: The motor needs to be switched off for 1 minute after 15 minutes of consecutive use to cool down and prevent motor failure. Do not operate the unit for more than 4 hours (including cool-down periods) on any given day.
Maintenance Features
- Cleaning:
- Always disconnect the plug from the mains power supply before cleaning.
- Empty the drum regularly as suction power will decrease as it fills. Be careful when emptying, as a full drum can weigh up to 24kg.
- To empty, release the two latches, remove the motor housing, and use the handle grip on the underside of the drum.
- Clean the drum with a warm, moist cloth and buff dry. Do not use harsh abrasive or other cleaning aids.
- Clean the filter periodically by gently beating it over a rubbish bin.
- After cleaning, place the motor housing back on the drum, ensuring the vacuum inlet and blower outlet line up vertically, and secure the latches.
- Never spray water over the upper section of the vacuum cleaner.
- Storage:
- Unplug the unit and clean all parts as instructed.
- Ensure all parts are dry before storing.
- Store the appliance in its box or in a clean, dry place.
- Never store the appliance while it is still wet or dirty.
- Never wrap the power cord around the appliance.
- Troubleshooting: If the unit is not operating correctly, check that instructions have been followed, wiring is correct, the wall socket is switched on, mains power supply is ON, and the plug is firmly in the mains socket.
- Repair: There are no user-serviceable parts. In case of technical problems, switch off the machine and return it to an authorised service facility for examination, adjustment, or repair, insisting on original spare parts. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an authorised service agent.
- Plug Replacement: If the fitted plug needs to be changed, follow the provided instructions for connecting a three-pin plug, ensuring correct wiring according to the colour code (Green/Yellow = Earth, Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live). If the appliance has three wires, it MUST be earthed. If it has only two wires (Blue, Brown), it does not need to be earthed.
