When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should be observed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR UPRIGHT VACUUM.

Always connect to a polarized outlet (left slot is wider than right). Unplug from outlet when not in use and before conducting maintenance.

fire, electric shock, or injury:

■

Do not modify the polarized plug to fit a non-polarized outlet or extension cord.

■

Do not leave vacuum cleaner unattended when it is plugged in.

■

Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.

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.

■

Do not use with damaged cord or 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 centre.

■

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.

■

Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

■

Do not handle vacuum cleaner or plug with wet hands.

■

Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep openings free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.

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.

This model is for household use only.

CAUTION:

Do not plug in your vacuum cleaner until you are familiar with all instructions and operating procedures.

This User’s Guide has been designed to help you get the most satisfaction from your BISSELL CleanView. You’ll find assembly and operating instructions, safety precautions, as well as maintenance and troubleshooting instructions. Please read this Guide thoroughly before assembling your vacuum cleaner.

Pay particular attention to the product diagram, assembly instructions, and part names. Locate and organize all parts before assembly. Familiarize yourself with the parts and where they fit. Following this User’s Guide will greatly enhance your ability to get the most performance from your BISSELL CleanView for many years.

The only tool you’ll need to assemble your vacuum cleaner is a screwdriver.

Locate the vacuum Handle and remove the screw packet taped to the base of the Handle.

Stand the vacuum upright and slide the base of the Handle firmly into the grooves at the top of the vacuum body.

Check to be sure the Handle is fitted to the vacuum body. If there is a gap in front, continue to push firmly until the Handle is flush.

Insert one screw provided from the screw packet into the existing hole. Tighten securely with a screwdriver.

Position the Hose Assembly on the back of the vacuum as shown.

Attach the Hose with the remaining two screws from the packet. Tighten securely with a screwdriver.

Grasping the Quick Reach Handle, slide the end of the Hose Wand onto the suction intake opening. Snap the Hose into the Hose Clip.

NOTE: The Powerfoot will not operate effectively unless the hose wand is firmly attached to the suction intake opening.
