cleaner features double insulation and does not need to be earthed. Disconnect the plug from the mains before

and repairs must be carried out by an authorised Electrolux service centre.

• When housing shows visible signs of damage.
Never vacuum:
• Sharp objects, uids.

• Fine dust, for example from plaster, concrete, our, hot or cold ashes.
The above may cause serious damage to the motor – damage which is not covered by the warranty.
