TROUBLESHOOTING
Decreasing cleaning power
Note:
The amount that can be vacuumed up can vary
depending on the vacuuming material.
If the cleaning power of the appliance deteriorates
please check the following:
●
Accessories, suction hose or suction tubes are
clogged, please remove the obstruction using a

on the use of the appliance by such person.
●
Keep packaging
fi
lm away from children - risk of suf-
focation!
●
Switch the appliance off after every use and prior to
every cleaning/maintenance procedure.
●
The appliance may not be used in areas where a
risk of explosion is present.
●
The ash and dry vacuum cleaner must not be used
for the separation of hazardous substances.
●
Only ashes from permissible fuels (e.g. natural
wood, wooden briquets, wood pellets, lignite and
hard coal) must be vacuumed.
●
Do not vacuum up soot.
●
Vacuuming material which appears to have cooled
down from the outside may still be very hot inside.
Hot ash particles may ignite again in the air
fl
ow.
●
Stir up the ashes with a metal object to check wheth-
er the ashes are still hot.
●
Please make sure that the oven is cold before you
vacuum clean ovens.
●
Continuously check hoses and vacuum cleaner for
heat while vacuuming ashes. If you notice a temper-
ature rise, switch off the vacuum cleaner immediate-
ly. Pull out the mains plug. Remove the vacuuming
material from the ash and dry vacuum cleaner. Allow
device to cool down outside under supervision.

Electrical connection
The appliance may only be connected to alternating
current. The voltage must correspond with the type
plate on the appliance.
Risk of electric shock
Never touch the mains plug and the socket
with wet hands.
Do not pull the plug from the socket by pulling on the
connecting cable.
Check the power cord with mains plug for damage be-
fore every use. If the power cord is damaged, please
arrange immediately for the exchange by an authorized
customer service or a skilled electrician.
To avoid accidents due to electrical faults we recom-
mend the use of sockets with a line-side current-limiting
circuit breaker (max. 30 mA nominal tripping current).
Caution
Certain materials may produce explosive va-
pours or mixtures when agitated by the suc-
tion air!
Never vacuum up the following materials:
●
Explosive or combustible gases, liquids and dust
particles (reactive dust particles)
●
Reactive metal dust particles (such as aluminium,
magnesium, zinc) in combination with highly alkaline
or acidic detergents
●
Undiluted, strong acids and alkalies
●
Organic solvents (such as petrol, paint thinners, ac-
etone, heating oil).
●
Hot, burning or glowing objects with temperatures
greater than 40°C. Temperatures above 40°C repre-
sent a
fi
re hazard.
●
Not suitable to separate health-hazardous dust
(dust classes L, M, H).
