[. . . ] 4 Keep hair, clothing, fingers (and toes), away from the end doing the sucking, and from the brush. It won't drag you into the bin, but it may give you a bit of a start. 5 Stuff you mustn't pick up: a) don't pick up any liquid ­ you'll short the motor b) don't pick up stuff that may ignite spontaneously, like matches, bits of fire-lighter c) don't pick up anything burning or smouldering, like cigarette ends, ashes, or embers ­ wait till they're extinguished and cold d) don't pick up spillage from toner cartridges ­ the fine carbon particles may pass through the filter, short circuit the motor, and burn it out e) don't pick up cement or plaster dust ­ they'll combine with moisture in the air, clog the filter, scour the bin, and maybe burn out the motor too f) don't pick up anything sharp ­ you may puncture the filter and damage the motor g) don't pick up anything biological ­ you'll eventually have to clean it off the filter, and there's always the possibility that viral particles may pass through the filter, reach the air outlet, and enter your air supply 6 If you use the cleaner outdoors (e. g. cleaning the car), connect it to the electricity supply via a residual current device (RCD), with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA. [. . . ] 15 Push the wide end of the tube on to the nozzle. 16 Choose a tool, and push it on to the narrow end of the tube. suction control 17 There are two ways to control the suction: a) The suction control on the top of the cleaner, behind the bin ­ move it towards the bin to increase the suction, away from the bin to reduce suction. b) The suction control on the nozzle ­ move it towards the nozzle for maximum suction, away from the nozzle, to reduce suction. plug it in. This could give you a bit of a start, so be careful. 18 Put the plug into a socket near the area to be cleaned (switch the socket on, if it's switchable). 4 plug in caution If you've accidentally pressed the on/off switch 3, the cleaner will work when you 19 Press and release the on/off switch 3, to turn the cleaner on. switching on cleaning 20 Move the tool over the surface, cleaning a small area at a time. 21 When you move to a new area, overlap the previous area, to make sure none of the surface is missed. switching off 22 If you've finished, if you want to change tools, or if you just want to stop for a rest, press and release the on/off switch 3, to turn the cleaner off. 23 Press and release the on/off switch 3, to turn the cleaner off. 24 Unplug the cleaner (switch the socket off first, if it's switchable). 25 Stand clear of the cable, and press the C button ­ the cable will rewind. 26 Keep clear of the cable, as it rewinds at a fair lick. If it catches on anything, stop pressing, and it'll stop rewinding. 27 We've tried not to make it too powerful, to avoid wrecking your home, so you may need to push the plug end into the storage area manually. finished cleaning? suction light 28 The suction light, on top of the cleaner, monitors the amount of suction available to the cleaner. 29 It glows when the cleaner is stressed, then goes out as the stress is removed. a) unless it glows steadily, you needn't worry about it b) it'll flicker while you're cleaning, as the load on the motor changes c) it'll pulse when you're using the turbo brush, as the load varies more with this brush d) it'll glow steadily if you block the end of the hose ­ moving the hose will cure this e) it'll glow steadily if you let the bin get full ­ stop and empty it f) it'll glow steadily if there's a blockage ­ stop and clear the blockage removing and emptying the bin 30 You don't have to empty the bin after each use, but it's a very good idea. Your cleaner will happily work till it's chock full, but you'll be wasting energy swirling yesterday's dust around. Energy that could be better used sucking up today's dust. 31 Switch off, unplug, and leave it for a minute, to let the dust settle. 32 Press in the lock on the hose end, and pull the hose out of the cleaner ­ this'll keep the hose out of your way. 33 Hold the bin handle, press the bin release button (on top of the bin handle), then lift the bin up and out of the cleaner. 34 Lower the bin into your dustbin so the bottom of the bin is below the rim ­ this'll prevent the dust dispersing into your environment. 35 Press the latch on the front of the bin, to open the bottom of the bin, and dump its contents into the dustbin.
