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.
