NOTICE – Risk of Damage to Material and Property

• Only connect the device to a socket that is properly installed and matches the technical data of the device. The socket must also be readily accessible after  connection so that the connection to the mains can quickly be isolated.

• Make sure that the connection not squashed, bent or laid over sharp edges and does not come into contact with hot surfaces. Do not wrap the connection  around the device (danger of the cable breaking).

• Switch off the device and pull the mains plug out of the plug socket:
  – in the event of a thunderstorm,
  – in the event of damage / faults (e. g. unusual noises, odour or smoke development)
  – if liquids have been sucked up,
  – if the device has been dropped.
  Have the device checked by an expert before it is used again.

• The device must be switched off when inserting or removing the mains plug.

• Never pull or carry the device by the mains cable. Always pull the mains plug and never the mains cable to disconnect the device from the mains power.

• Protect the device from heat, naked fl ames, sub-zero temperatures, persistent moisture, wet conditions and impacts.

• Do not try to lubricate the rollers with lubricant or oil. This would cause dust and dirt to increasingly adhere to the rollers.

Safety Devices

The device has two safety switches (8, 12). The UV-C lamp (10) only switches on if both safety switches are pressed into the motor unit (3) (automatic switch-off  function of the UV-C lamp deactivated). This happens automatically when the device is placed on a fl at surface. If the safety switches lose contact with the  surface below, the automatic switchoff function is activated and the UV-C lamp stops being lit.

Tips and Notes

• Always clean mattresses on both sides.
• We recommend cleaning new mattresses once a month. Older mattresses should initially be cleaned every day for a week. We then recommend cleaning them once a month.
• The fi lters should be replaced every 12 – 18 months; the UV-C lamp (10) should be replaced every 12 – 24 months. If you have any questions about  spare  parts, please contact the customer service department via our website: www.dspro.de/kundenservice

Use

PLEASE NOTE!

• The device should only be used if it has been completely and correctly assembled! The dust container and the fi lters must be inserted and must not be  damaged. If the dirt were to get inside the motor unit, this could damage the motor.
• Make sure that the safety switches of the UV-C lamp are not blocked!
• Always test the device fi rst on a small, inconspicuous spot.

1. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed plug socket that is easily accessible.
