9.This vacuum cleaner is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the vacuum cleaner by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the vacuum cleaner.

11.Store the vacuum cleaner indoors. Do not use or store this vacuum cleaner below 0ºC (32ºF). Ensure that the vacuum cleaner is at room temperature before operating. Put the vacuum cleaner away after use with the cable stored safely, to prevent tripping hazards.
12.This vacuum cleaner is fitted with a thermal protection device. If any part of your vacuum cleaner becomes blocked it may cause the device to operate and automatically stop the vacuum cleaner. If this happens, the vacuum cleaner must be switched off, unplugged and allowed to cool down before attempting to check filters or for blockages.
Ensure any blockage is cleared before
13.Do not unplug by pulling on cable. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cable.
