IMPoRTanT
Your vacuum cleaner requires a certain amount of maintenance to
function properly.
The following points should be observed:
• Check the voltage marked on the adapter and make sure it matches
the voltage to which you are connecting.
• Do not use the vacuum cleaner on surfaces that have been cleaned
with flammable solvents until the solvents have dried completely.
• Do not use your vacuum cleaner to remove hot or burning particles.
This may cause a fire.
• Never apply a lubricant to the motor unit.
• Do not leave the vacuum exposed to direct sunlight or in the vicinity
of a heat source.
If your vacuum cleaner is damaged in such a way that the batteries
become exposed:
• Do not leave the battery in the vicinity of strong heat.
• Do not short-circuit the battery.
• Do not remove the batteries if they are broken or leaking.
Dispose of the entire unit as you would a battery.
• Use only the original charger designed for the unit.
• Recharge your vacuum cleaner after each use.
