IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING (THIS APPLIANCE)
When using an electrical appliance basic precautions should always be followed,
including the following.
Before connecting the cleaner to an electrical supply outlet ensure that the voltage marked on
the rating plate (on the underside of the cleaner) is correct for your electrical supply.
If it does not comply do not use the cleaner prior to contacting the manufacturer.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of re, electric shock or injury:
1. Do not leave the vacuum cleaner when plugged in. Remove the plug from the outlet when
not in use and before servicing.
2. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
3. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
4. The appliance is not intended for use by young children or inrmed persons
without supervision.
5. Use only as described in this manual. Use only the manufacturers
recommended attachments.
6. Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If the vacuum cleaner is not working as it should,
has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors or dropped in water, arrange for it to be taken to

Warnings Continued
13. Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
14. Do not use to collect ammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas
where they may be present.
15. Unplug the appliance prior to connecting the hose.
16. Do not collect anything that is burning or smoking such as cigarettes, matches or hot
ashes.
17. Do not use without lters in place.
18. Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.
19. Do not use your vacuum cleaner on carpet cleaning foams, sharp or heavy building
materials or plaster dust or other ne powders. They could damage or clog the cartridge
lter and cause failure to other key parts in your vacuum cleaner and render your
warranty invalid.
20. Store your vacuum cleaner indoors in a cool dry area.
21. Keep your work area well lighted.
22. Unplug electrical appliances prior to vacuuming them.
SERVICE & REPAIR
It is dangerous to alter the specications or modify the product in any way. Under no
circumstances should you attempt to repair the cleaner yourself.
Repairs undertaken by unauthorised or inexperienced persons may cause injury and / or
serious malfunction of the cleaner and may void the warranty conditions on page 10 of this
instruction booklet.
NB! To avoid injury and prevent damage to the vacuum cleaner a defective cord must only
be replaced by an authorised service provider approved by the manufacturer to avoid a
hazard. The vacuum cleaner should be serviced by an authorised service provider and only
genuine Volta parts should be used.
DOUBLE INSULATION
Your vacuum cleaner is double insulated. This means that all external parts are electrically
insulated from the mains. This is done by placing insulation barriers between the electrical
and mechanical components, making it necessary for the cleaner not to be earthed.
WARNING: On collection of proprietary carpet conditioning powder, plaster / concrete dust
and talcum powder, it is recommended that the dust container is emptied and the cartridge
lter is cleaned after each use. Some of thee preparations contain substances which while
left in the vacuum cleaner for extended periods could cause damage. Many air fresheners,
household deodorants, sprays and polishes contain highly inammable gas propellants,
because of this it is particularly important that these products are used strictly in accordance
with the relevant manufacturers instructions. It is essential that none of the above products
are sprayed directly into the vacuum cleaner or any of the lters, hose assembly or dust
chamber.

vacuum cleaner and the dust penetration, which is visible by the discolouring of the lter.
• Disconnect the electrical power cord from the power outlet prior to cleaning the lters.

CLEANING THE HOSE AND NOZZLE
The vacuum cleaner stops automatically if the nozzle, tube or hose becomes blocked or if
the lters are blocked. This is due to a safety precaution which prevents the motor
overheating. Switch o the cleaner at the mains power outlet and remove the plug from
the power outlet, grasping the plug not the cord for removal. Allow the cleaner to cool
down for approximately 30 minutes.
TUBES AND HOSE
1. Use a exible hose or similar item to clear the tube and hose.
2. Use a exible hose or similar item to clear the hose by “massaging” it. However, be careful
in case the obstruction has been caused by glass or needles caught inside the hose.
NOTE: The warranty does not cover any damage to hoses caused by cleaning them.
CLEANING THE FLOOR NOZZLE
3. To avoid reduction in suction power, frequently clean the dual-purpose oor nozzle. The
easiest way to clean it is by connecting the hose to the vacuum cleaner and using the
hose bent end handle.
