IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
THIS ‘EASY GUIDE’ SHOULD BE READ COMPLETELY AND
REFERRED TO AT ALL TIMES BEFORE USING YOUR VAX.
This ‘easy guide’ should be retained with your VAX for
future reference. If your VAX is sold or transferred to
a new owner, this guide should be passed on so that
the new owner can become acquainted with the
machine and this information. The following informa-

IMPORTANT: When carrying out any maintenance or
cleaning operations on this product, it is essential
that the plug is removed from the wall socket.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured BLUE for
NEUTRAL and BROWN for LIVE.
If the plug provided is unsuitable for your socket
outlets, the plug must be cut off and a suitable plug
fitted. The cut-off plug should be disposed of and
must not be inserted into any 13 amp socket as this
can result in electric shock. The plug or adaptor or
the distribution panel should be provided with a 13
amp fuse.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of
this appliance may not correspond with coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows. The wire which is coloured blue
MUST be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which
is coloured brown MUST be connected to the terminal
which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH
TERMINAL OF A THREE PIN PLUG (TH1S 1S MARKED
‘E’ OR BY THE EARTH SYMBOL OR COLOURED
GREEN OR GREEN AND YELLOW).
When replacing or changing a fuse always replace
the fuse cover/holder. The appliance should not be
used with the fuse exposed. If lost, replacement fuse
covers can be obtained from VAX Ltd.
Only 13 amp fuses approved to B.S. 1362 A.S.T.A.
should be used. This appliance conforms with the
requirements of EEC Directive No. 82/499 EEC
relating to radio interference. In the interests of
product improvement, the Company reserve the
right to introduce modifications or alterations
without notice.
Ensure the mains cable is fully unwound and straightened before use.
Ensure the mains cable is kept well away from the revolving brushes (where fitted) of your VAX, when it is
turned on and running.
Keep the mains cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges and rough surfaces and avoid damage in any
other way.
Exercise extreme care when cleaning stairs.
Follow the instructions in this user guide when fitting and changing accessories or tools.
Remove the plug from the wall socket before carrying out any maintenance specified in this guide.
Change dust bags and filters at regular intervals.
Store your VAX in a dry place.
Switch the pump on occasionally (once per month) for 5 seconds to keep it in
good working order for when you next wash your carpets.

Never tug at the mains cable to remove the plug from the wall socket.
Keep all loose clothing, hair and body parts away from openings and moving parts.
Never use your VAX in the presence of flammable gases.
Avoid sucking up hot items, hazardous liquids or any other material which could damage your VAX.
Never leave your VAX running unattended.
Never use your VAX without a dust bag except when washing or sucking up spills.
If your VAX fails to operate, never attempt to repair it yourself as repairs carried out by an unauthorised
or inexperienced person may cause injury to you or damage to your VAX. Have your VAX serviced by an
authorised VAX Service Agent only using genuine VAX spare parts. Never alter the specification or modify
your VAX in any way.
