WARNING:
Do not use for a long time while
the float is at work. Using the cleaner with its float at
work for a long time can cause overheat, resulting in
the cleaner deformation.
WARNING:
Do not pick up foam or soapy
liquid. It can cause foam to come out of air exit
before the float works. Continuous use under such
conditions may cause an electric shock and breakage
of the cleaner.
The auto-suction stop feature works only while the
cleaner is used with the float and float cage.
The cleaner has a float mechanism that prevents water
from entering into the motor when picking up more than
a certain amount of water. When the tank is full and the
cleaner no longer picks up water, switch off the cleaner
and empty the tank.
