[. . . ] Do not operate the vacuum cleaner - if no dust bag is inserted or if the dust bag is damaged, - if the dust bag full indicator shows that the dust bag has reached its maximum capacity. A considerable risk exists especially where ears and eyes are concerned. Keep the nozzle away from the head at all times. When removing the plug from the wall socket, never pull on the power cord; always grip the plug itself. No responsibility will be accepted if damage results from improper use, or if these instructions are not complied with. [. . . ] - In addition, the suction power can be decreased further by opening the secondary air-flow opening slide in the hose grip. - Always start with a low setting when cleaning soft objects such as curtains. Always ensure that the power cord is not routed around or runs over corners or edges, and that it cannot be jammed in a door. - During operation, the hose may be used to pull the unit along behind you. To prevent the power cord from being pulled with excessive force, always change to the next suitable wall socket when cleaning larger areas. - Switch off the appliance after use and remove the plug from the wall socket. - To retract the power cord automatically into its storage, press the foot switch of the retract mechanism.
