Cleaning and care
,
Always disconnect the vacuum
cleaner from the electrical supply
before cleaning it. Switch off at the
wall socket and unplug it.
Vacuum cleaner and accessories
The vacuum cleaner and all plastic
accessories can be cleaned with a dry
or a slightly damp cloth, or with a
proprietary cleaner suitable for plastic.
,
Do not use abrasive cleaning
agents, glass cleaning agents,
all-purpose cleaners or oil-based
conditioning agents.
Dust compartment
The dust compartment can, if
necessary, be cleaned using a dry
duster, brush or, if available, a second
vacuum cleaner to vacuum the dust
out.
,
Do not let the vacuum cleaner
get wet. If moisture gets into the
appliance, there is a risk of electric
shock.
