safety advice.

•Do not use or keep this product outside

when it is raining.

•Do not store the appliance near hot ovens

or heating appliances.

Mains lead

•Do not allow the mains lead to become

strained or run this appliance over it.

•If the electrical cable becomes damaged

the complete cable assembly must be

replaced. Do not attempt this task

yourself, contact Goblin using the helpline

number.

•Children do not understand the dangers

associated with operating electrical

appliances. Never allow children to use

this appliance.

Other safety considerations

•Never use in the presence of explosive

liquids or vapours.

•Never pick up inflammable or poisonous

liquids such as petrol, copier toner, or

other volatile substances. Never pick up

acids, asbestos or asbestos dust.

•Always disconnect the appliance from the

mains supply after use or prior to cleaning

or replacing dust bags.

•The appliance should never be left

running unsupervised.

•Repairs to electrical appliances are only to

be undertaken by trained personnel.

Unprofessional repairs can be dangerous

for users.

•Use only genuine Goblin spare parts and

accessories

Product safety

•Never use the appliance without the filter

installed.

•Never use the appliance to vacuum hot

ashes, broken glass, sharp objects or

liquids.

•Never modify the cleaner in any way.

Electrical

requirements

Check that the voltage on the rating plate

of your appliance corresponds with your

house electricity supply which must be A.C.

(Alternating Current).

If the socket outlets in your home are not

suitable for the plug supplied with this

appliance, the plug should be removed and

the appropriate one fitted.

If you cut off the plug and let go of the

cable it will rewind into the machine.

Therefore you must pull out a length of cable

and secure it before cutting off the plug and

refitting a new one.

WARNING: The plug removed from

the mains lead, if severed, must be

destroyed as a plug with bared flexible

cord is hazardous if engaged into a live

socket outlet.

Should the fuse in the 13 amp plug

require replacement, a BS1362 13 amp fuse

must be fitted.
