Siemens VSZ2 Instruction Manual page 7

The vacuum cleaner is not suitable for use on con-
struction sites.
= Vacuuming up building rubble could damage the >
appliance.
When not in use, switch off the appliance and pull out
the mains plug.
At the end of its life, the appliance should immediately
be rendered unusable, then disposed of in an appro-
priate manner.
!
Please note
The mains socket must be protected by at least a 16
amp circuit breaker.
If a circuit breaker is tripped when you switch on the
vacuum cleaner, this may be because other electri-
cal appliances which have a high current draw are
connected to the same power circuit.
To prevent the circuit breaker from tripping, select
the lowest power setting before switching the ap-
pliance on, and increase the power only once it is
running.
Disposal information
Packaging
The packaging is designed to protect the vacuum
cleaner from being damaged during transportation.
It is made of environmentally friendly materials and
can therefore be recycled. Dispose of packaging that
is no longer required at an appropriate recycling
point.
Old appliance
Old appliances still contain many valuable materials.
Therefore, please take appliances that have reached
the end of their service life to your retailer or recyc-
ling centre so that they can be recycled. For current
disposal methods, please enquire at a retailer or
your local council.
Disposal of filters and dust bags
Filters and dust bags are manufactured from envi-
ronmentally friendly materials. Provided they do
not contain substances that are not permitted in
household waste, you can dispose of them with your
normal household waste.
