Do not charge the appliance or turn the suction opening upwards when there is still water in the dust container.
Before cleaning or servicing the appliance and before changing accessories, switch off the appliance and make sure that the mains adapter is not connected.

Safety when handling rechargeable batteries
If rechargeable batteries are handled improperly, there is a risk of injury and explosion.

Never replace the rechargeable battery with other rechargeable batteries or other non-rechargeable batteries. Never short-circuit rechargeable batteries, i.e. never touch both poles at the same time, especially not with objects that conduct electricity. Store rechargeable batteries so that they cannot be short circuited by other rechargeable batteries or metal objects during storage.
To charge the rechargeable battery, only use the mains adapter included in the delivery. Never charge the rechargeable battery with another mains adapter. Only use the mains adapter included in the delivery to charge the rechargeable battery of this appliance.
At the end of its useful life, take the rechargeable battery to an appropriate collection point nearby without delay, thus ensuring safe and environmentally appropriate disposal. Never dispose of the rechargeable battery in household waste.
Never take the rechargeable battery apart, expose it to high temperatures or throw it onto fires.
In case of improper handling, liquid can escape from the rechargeable battery. Do not use the rechargeable battery if it is damaged or if it is leaking liquid.
- If liquid has escaped, avoid contact with the liquid.
- In case of contact with the liquid, rinse it off immediately with copious amounts of water. In case of after effects (irrespective of type), consult a doctor.

Rotating brush roller
The appliance contains a powered brush roller. This can cause injuries. Therefore, note the following:

Before cleaning or maintaining the appliance, make sure that the appliance is switched off and is not on charge.
Ensure that parts of your body can never get under the brush roller.
Do not vacuum near cables, wires and long fringes. On the one hand, there is a danger that the cable’s insulation will be damaged. On the other hand, these objects can get caught in the brush roller and thereby damage the appliance.

In order to prevent injuries, fires and damage, the appliance must not be used to vacuum:

People, animals and plants. Always keep appliance away from all body parts, hair and clothing. Do not vacuum near the head.
Glowing, burning or smouldering particles (such as ash, coal, charcoal, cigarettes, matches).
Explosive or highly flammable substances or toners.
Sharp objects, such as glass splinters, nails or construction waste.

Charging the rechargeable battery with wall mount
The rechargeable battery has to be charged using the wall mount before first use. It is best to charge the rechargeable battery before each use, especially if the appliance has not been used for a while. This increases the useful life of the rechargeable battery and ensures the longest possible cleaning cycles.

Make sure that the appliance is switched off (On/Off switch in the “0” position).
Connect the mains adapter included in the delivery to a socket.
Insert the appliance into the wall mount. The LED on the handle flashes red. The charging process starts. The LEDs light up green continuously if the rechargeable battery is fully charged. The charging process takes around 5 hours when the rechargeable battery is empty.
