Thermal Cut-out Device

• If the dust container and filters are not cleaned on a regular basis, the vacuum cleaner may overheat, which will cause the thermal cut-out device to activate due to restricted flow of air around the unit. If the vacuum cleaner cuts out, press the power switch to turn it off and unplug it from the mains power supply. Proceed to empty the dust container, clean all of the filters and allow the vacuum cleaner to cool for approx. 1 hour.

Care and Maintenance

• Always unplug the vacuum cleaner from the mains power supply before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.
• Wipe the external surface of the vacuum cleaner with a soft, damp cloth and allow to dry thoroughly.
• Do not use any harsh or abrasive detergents or cleaning agents to clean any part of the vacuum cleaner.
• Clean the filters after every removal of the dust container.
• To clean the inside of the dust container it is possible to remove the cyclonic cone.
• Keep the HEPA filter clean and replace when it becomes worn.

Dos and Don’ts

DO:

• Check that the HEPA filters are kept clear of obstruction.

• Make sure that the dust container and HEPA filters are cleaned regularly to preserve suction and prolong the life of the
  vacuum cleaner.

• Clean the dust container and HEPA filters at least every three weeks with clean water to keep the vacuum cleaner working efficiently.

DON’T:

• Use the vacuum cleaner without the HEPA filters or dust container in position.
• Use the vacuum cleaner to pick up flammable liquid, matches, cigarette ends, hot ashes or any hot, burning or smoking objects. Use the vacuum cleaner to pick up water or any other liquid, as this poses risk of an electric shock.

Instructions for use

Before First Use
Before using the vacuum cleaner for the first time, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Do not immerse the vacuum cleaner in water or any other liquid.

Installing the Wall-mountable Storage Base
The wall-mountable storage base can be fixed to a wall.

STEP 1: Using a pencil, mark the positions of two screw holes, 65 mm apart, on the desired surface. The markings should be horizontally aligned using a spirit level (not included).
STEP 2: Using a suitable drill bit, no larger than 5 mm in diameter, drill 30 mm deep pilot holes into the markings. Consult a qualified professional if required.
STEP 3: Firmly place the wall plugs into the pilot holes so that they sit flush with the surface of the wall.
STEP 4: Position the wall-mountable storage base onto the surface, aligning the holes on the surface with those on the wall-mountable storage base.
STEP 5: Insert the screws provided through the wall-mountable storage base and into the wall and tighten so that the wall-mountable storage base sits flush with the surface. STEP 6: Slide the vacuum cleaner into position on the wall-mountable storage base, ensuring that it engages with the supports.

NOTE: Check that the chosen surface is strong enough to support the wall- mountable storage base.
Make sure that the wall mount is secured at an adequate height to store the fully assembled vacuum cleaner.
Consult a qualified professional if required.

CAUTION: Check that there are no electrical, plumbing or gas supplies situated beneath the surface of the wall. These services normally run vertically or horizontally behind the wall, and the electrical wiring will radiate from the socket, possibly in more than one direction. Testers are available from good DIY stores. Consult a qualified professional if required.

Using the Swift Vac Pro
STEP 1: Plug in and switch on the vacuum cleaner at the mains power supply.
STEP 2: Turn on the vacuum cleaner by pressing the power switch to the on position. To turn it off, press the power switch to the off position.

WARNING: Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the HEPA filters, dust container or cyclonic cone in position. Make sure that the filters and the dust container are regularly cleaned to preserve the suction and prolong the life of the vacuum cleaner.

Using the Telescopic Extension Tube
The floor brush and crevice and brush tools fit onto the telescopic extension tube to allow for a more accessible and convenient clean. Before fitting any accessories, make sure that the accessory adaptor is attached to the hand held unit and check that the vacuum cleaner is disconnected from the mains power supply.

STEP 1: Fit the accessory adaptor onto the hand held unit.
STEP 2: To attach the telescopic extension tube to the main unit, firmly push the end of the telescopic tube onto the accessory adaptor. To remove the telescopic extension tube, carefully pull it away from the accessory adaptor.
STEP 3: Push the chosen attachment onto the end of telescopic extension tube and secure into place.
STEP 4: Adjust the telescopic extension tube to the required length by pressing the telescopic extension tube button down and sliding the inner tube in or out.
STEP 5: Turn on the vacuum cleaner by pressing the power switch.

NOTE: The telescopic extension tube comes disassembled. The accessory adaptor must be attached to the handheld unit before attaching the telescopic tube.

Using the Floor Brush
