4. Attach the Handle to the top Cover housing the Turbine.
The Turbine is a machine which is housed within the protective (black) cover. For
simplicity’s sake, the entire housing is referred to as the “Turbine”. The Turbine sits on
top of the Dust / Water container.

Dry Vacuuming
5. When vacuuming dry dust and materials which are not wet, attach the HEPA Filter
around the cylindrical component at the bottom of the Turbine as shown.
6. (Optional) A Paper (Dust) bag is provided (non-replaceable). It is not necessary to use
the bag. However, if you wish to do so, attach the opening of the Paper (Dust) bag
around the Connector at the side of the Dust / Water container. Empty the bag after each
use as a full bag will not fit into the tight confines of the Dust / Water container with the
HEPA Filter already present. DO NOT wash the bag.

and dangerous. The manufacturer is NOT responsible for possible damages caused by
the inappropriate and/or unreasonable use.
3. The installation/assembly of the appliance will be made in accordance with the
indications of the manufacturer. A wrong procedure may cause damages to persons,
animals or objects, for which the manufacturer cannot be considered responsible.
4. This appliance must NOT be used for vacuuming burning, smoking, toxic, volatile or
flammable substances. The appliance must NOT be used to clear sewers. An explosion
may occur if the machine suctions sewer gases. Sewer gases inhalation may lead to
unconsciousness and death.
5. It is NOT recommended to use the appliance for cleaning open stoves or other devices

resistant to water action.
6. DO NOT vacuum mud, gypsum material, wall powder, blade, kindling, clumps of hair,
large pieces of paper and other items such as sharp metal objects as that may make
the Air Inlet, Tube/s, Hose and Filter/s get blocked and the Turbine get burned. An
indication of blockage may manifest as an abnormal sound or poor suction. If these
small particles were absorbed, please disconnect the power cable and remove them
from the Dust Bag or Filter immediately.
7. Before use, check the integrity of the appliance and power cable. DO NOT operate the
appliance when Turbine or power cable is damaged. They must be replaced by the
manufacturer or its service agent, or a qualified technician in order to avoid a shock
hazard.
8. Before powering the appliance make sure the rating (voltage and frequency)
corresponding to the grid and the socket is suitable for the plug of the appliance, and
that the wall socket is properly grounded. This appliance is fitted with an earth wire for
extra safety.
9. DO NOT power the appliance using multiple sockets. Avoid the use of adapters and/or
extension cables; if their use is absolutely necessary, use only materials in compliance

with the current safety regulations and according to the electrical parameters of the
adapters.
10. The appliance must NOT be switched on using external timers and/or other remote
control appliances which are not specified in this manual.
11. Only use original components & accessories provided by the manufacturer. Any non-
original component or accessory NOT recommended by the manufacturer (including,
but not limited to Turbine, Dust / Water container, Wheels, Filters, Paper (Dust) bag,
Extension tubes, Hose, Floor Brush, etc.) made by other manufacturers or by the same
manufacturer but for other models of the same capacity or otherwise may cause injuries
to persons or damage to the appliance.
12. The packing materials (plastic bags, expanded polystyrene, etc.) must be kept out of the
reach of children or disabled persons since they represent potential sources of danger.
Location
13. This appliance is NOT suitable to be used or stored near heat sources (open flame,
ovens, heaters, stoves, etc.) and/or in an explosive environment (in the presence of
flammable substances such as gas, vapour, mist or dust, in atmospheric conditions
when, after ignition, the combustion is spread in the air). Items containing these
substances should never be placed in the appliance, and never be used to clean the
appliance in order to avert the risk of fire or explosion.
14. Place and use the appliance on a horizontal and stable surface. Damage may occur if
the appliance is placed on an incline or decline. Be extra careful when vacuum cleaning
on stairs as the machine might topple
15. Avoid placing the power cable on abrasive or sharp surfaces or in positions where it can
be damaged easily. Avoid placing heavy objects on the cable. Arrange the cable away
from high traffic areas, and where it will NOT be tripped over. DO NOT pull or carry the
appliance by the cable, run the appliance over the cable or close a door on the cable.

Operation
18. If you are using the appliance for the first time, you should:
a. Clean the exterior of the fan with a damp cloth. Make sure that the Turbine DOES
NOT come into contact with water.
b. Assemble the appliance fully and check that the Turbine is NOT damaged. Use the

appliance only if the HEPA Filter is installed; or, the Sponge filter is installed with
1000 ml of water placed in the Dust / Water container. This is especially so if the
surroundings to be vacuumed is extremely dusty. Failure to do so will only send the
dust back out after being suctioned. DO NOT use other filters except the ones
provided by the manufacturer.
c. Ensure that the turbine is tightly secured by the Barrel clips to the Dust / Water
container before switching on the appliance. Failure to do this could cause a risk of
injury to persons and would defeat the utility of the appliance.
d. Make sure to remove any label or protective sheet which may prevent its proper
functioning.
DO NOT:
cover the appliance during functioning;
obstruct totally nor partially the air outlet with anything that may reduce the suction,
such as dust, lint, hair, etc.;
insert objects or body parts (including clothing and hair) inside the Turbine to avoid
personal injury or damage to the machine when the appliance is in operation;
push the Switch too forcefully;
use the appliance near curtains or textiles;
carry the machine with your hand while using the machine for cleaning operations;
operate the appliance for more than 20 minutes without turning it off for at least 10
minutes to let the appliance cool down for a total usage of 2 hours a day – failure to
heed this warning may result in motor failure;
use any of the following agents as a cleaner: gasoline, thinner, or benzene;
leave the appliance unsupervised during operation.
19. During operation, DO NOT touch the Turbine with wet body parts, and it is recommended
to have between you and the standing surface, an isolating element (for example,
wearing shoes with rubber soles). If it should be necessary to step on a wet or damp
floor to pick up water, do not touch the metallic parts of ANY electric device, lamp or
switch while performing this operation.
20. DO NOT soak the Turbine in water or other liquids, wash it under the tap, or let any liquid
flow into the internal casing of the appliance to prevent electric shock. In case of
accidental fall in water, DO NOT try to take it out, but first switch the appliance off.
21. Hold the plug when rewinding the power cable. DO NOT allow the plug and the cable to
whip around when rewinding.
22. Avoid bending, stamping and dragging the hose. DO NOT use the vacuum cleaner if the
Hose is damaged.
23. Excess water in the water container will cause shaking and vibration. If this occurs, the
vibrations are your warning that the water container is overfilled.
24. Switch the appliance OFF before unplugging the appliance. Plug and unplug the power
cable firmly holding it with dry hands. Always unplug the power cable to avoid

overheating and if it is NOT used for a long period, before storing, assembling &
disassembling, cleaning or performing any maintenance operation. Before storing,
cleaning or performing any maintenance operation, leave to cool for at least 30 minutes.
