BEFORE YOU START (continued)

WARNING

The brush in the cleaning head rotates at high speed and can cause damage to the mains supply cable if the cleaner passes over it during cleaning operations.

Care should be taken to ensure this does not happen. If the cleaning head has accidentally passed over the mains supply cable the following action should be taken:

1. Switch off and remove the plug from the socket outlet.

2. Examine the mains supply cable for damage (only after removing the plug from the socket outlet).

3.If the supply cord is damaged, it MUST be replaced by the manufacturer, its Service Agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

4.NEVER use the machine with a damaged mains supply cable.

Proprietary carpet conditioning and air freshening materials After using proprietary carpet conditioning powders, it is recommended that the dustbag or filters be changed. Some of these preparations contain substances that, if left in the vacuum cleaner for extended periods, could damage the plastic mouldings that form the structure of the cleaner.

Many air fresheners, household deodorants, sprays and polishes contain a highly flammable gas propellant. Because of this, it is particularly important that these products are used strictly in accordance with the relevant manufacturer’s instructions.

It is essential that none of the above products are sprayed directly into the vacuum cleaner or any of its filters, hose assembly, dustbag chamber or dust cup.

SERVICE

Should you require service on your Electrolux cleaner, please call Electrolux Helpline on 08445 614614. Calls to this number will be charged at 5p per minute at all times from a BT Landline. Before requesting service, please check whether your problem is covered under the Service Checklist (see below). Electrolux will arrange the uplift of the product for repair should no local service agent be available.

New filter pads, dustbags, brushrollers and drive belts can be obtained from Electrolux Retailers. If difficulty is experienced in obtaining spares, please contact Electrolux Helpline.

SERVICE CHECKLIST

•If your cleaner will not operate, check the plug connection, plug fuse and mains fuse.

•Never allow the dustbag to become so full that it impedes the air-flow, thus reducing the cleaning efficiency of the machine. The character of household dust and its effect on the air-flow through the machine may vary considerably. Fluffy dust allows air to pass through readily whereas fine powdery dust or proprietary cleaning powders, pack tightly in the dustbag, offering greater resistance to air-flow and will reduce cleaning efficiency if the bag becomes overloaded. Always ensure that you have a spare genuine Electrolux dustbag.

•Always store your cleaner and spare dustbags/filters in a dry place.

•Renew the filter pads three or four times a year. This is essential to ensure continued high filtration of dust particles.

•Sucking up such items as stockings, clippings of cloth, sizeable pieces of paper, wrappings from cigarette packets or sweets etc., may block the hose. Electrolux regrets that the clearing of blocked hoses cannot be regarded as service that can be given free of charge, under the guarantee. Should a blockage occur, first disconnect the cleaner from the electricity supply, refer

to section headed “Blockages.” If these operations are not successful, contact Electrolux Helpline.

•Never pick up hot cinders or lighted cigarette ends.

•Make certain that your cleaner does not come into contact with water or any other liquid. It is not designed as a wet pick-up cleaner, and must never be used on damp carpets or wet floors.

Spares

New filters, dustbags, brushrollers and drive belts may be obtained from Authorised Electrolux Dealers and electrical retailers. If difficulty is experienced in obtaining spares please contact Electrolux Helpline.
