Before start-up
Ensure that the voltage shown on the rating plate corresponds to the voltage of the local mains power supply. It is recommended that the 
vacuum cleaner should be connected via a residual current circuit breaker.
Inspect power cord regularly to detect signs of damage, e.g. cracks or ageing. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Nilfisk 
Service or an electrician to avoid danger before use of the vacuum cleaner is continued. Never use the vacuum cleaner if the filter is dam-
aged.
 Picking up liquids
Before liquids are picked up, always remove the filter bag. Insert filter for wet operation. Check that the float works properly. If foam develops 
or liquid emerges, stop work immediately and empty the dirt tank.

If suction performance drops:
1.  Switching on the vacuum cleaner.
2.  Close the nozzles or suction hose opening with the palm of your hand.
