IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR UPRIGHT VACUUM.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY:

» Always connect to a polarized

outlet (one slot is wider than the other). Do not modify the polarized plug to fit a non-polar ized outlet or extension cord.

» Do not leave vacuum cleaner

when it is plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.

» Do not use outdoors or on

wet surfaces.

Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.

» Do not use for any purpose other

than described in this User’s Guide. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, have it repaired at an authorized service center.

» Do not pull or carry by cord, use

cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run appliance over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

burning or smoking, such as

cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes. » Do not use without filters in place. » Do not pick up hard or sharp

objects such as glass, nails, screws,

coins, etc. » Use only on dry, indoor surfaces. » Keep appliance on a level surface. » Do not carry the vacuum cleaner

THIS APPLIANCE HAS A POLARIZED PLUG

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
