use an extension cord, use only safety-certified, wa-
ter-protected single extension cords (no-multi-socket
distributors) designed for the power consumption of
the appliance.
- Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.
Keep it away from rain and moisture.
- Only operate the appliance if your mains voltage is
the same as that indicated on the appliance's type
plate. Wrong voltage can destroy the appliance.

5. Set the nozzle switch to "carpet" or "hard floor" accord-
ing to the floor (Fig. 15) to be cleaned:
-Hard floor (Fig. 15/a)
Parquet, laminate, tiles, PVC, etc.
-Carpet (Fig. 15/b)
Short- and deep-pile carpets, rugs, etc.
6. When working with the vacuum cleaner, pull if after you
like a sleigh.
3.2 If anything has acci-
dentally caught in the
vacuum or been vacu-
umed up
If objects (such as curtains, etc) have caught in the
vacuum cleaner:
1. Sometimes it is sufficient to open the bypass vent
(Fig. 17), thus reducing the suction power.
2. Otherwise, switch off the cylinder vacuum cleaner with
the on/off switch (Fig. 18/1) and pull the plug from the
mains socket.
If you vacuum up objects by accident
1. Switch off the cylinder vacuum cleaner with the on/off
switch (Fig. 18/1) and pull the plug from the mains sock-
et.
2. Proceed as described in ZChapter 4.1, "Emptying the
dust container".
NOTE:
In normal situations the bypass vent (Fig. 16) must be
completely closed. With the bypass vent you can quickly
reduce the suction power, to release objects such as cur-
tains that have been sucked in.
NOTE:
Your vacuum cleaner is equipped with a safety switch to
prevent overheating. It automatically cuts off the power
supply if the motor is overheated. In this case switch off
the vacuum cleaner with the on/off switch and pull the
plug from the mains socket. Eliminate the cause of over-
heating (e.g. clogged suction paths). Wait for about
45 minutes. After the appliance has cooled off, you may
switch it on again.
