IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS VACUUM CLEANER

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

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY

1 Do not leave plugged in. Unplug from electrical outlet when not in use

and before servicing.

2 Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces or to vacuum water or other liquids

– electric shock and personal injury could occur.

3 Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used

by or near children.

4 You are responsible for making sure that your vacuum cleaner is not

used by anyone unable to operate it properly.

5 Use only as described in this manual. Use only with Dyson recommended

or approved attachments and accessories.

6 Check to ensure your electricity supply corresponds to that shown on the

rating plate, which can be found on the base of the machine between the wheels. The machine must only be used as rated.

7 Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If the machine is not functioning

properly, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or immersed in liquid, contact the Dyson Helpline on 1-866-693-9766.

8 Do not pull or carry by the cord, do not use the cord as a handle, do

not close a door on the cord or pull the cord around sharp edges or corners. Do not run the machine over the cord. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces and open flames.

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

the cord.

10 Hold plug when rewinding onto cord reel. Do not allow plug to whip

when rewinding.

11 Do not handle the plug or machine with wet hands.

12 Do not use the machine without the clear bin

and the filters in place.

13 Do not put any objects into openings in the machine. Do not use with

any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair and anything that may reduce air flow.

14 Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from

openings in the machine and moving parts such as the brushbar.

15 Do not use the machine to pick up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins,

paper clips etc. because they may damage the machine.

16 The use of an extension cord is not recommended.

17 Store the machine indoors. Put the machine away after use with the

cord coiled safely, to prevent tripping accidents.

18 Turn off all controls before unplugging.

19 Take extra care when cleaning on stairs; always work with the machine

at the bottom of the stairs. Do not put the machine on chairs, tables etc, keep it on the floor.

20 Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes,

matches, or hot ashes.

21 Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids, such as

gasoline, or use in areas where they may be present.

22 When vacuuming, certain carpets may generate small static charges in

the clear bin

or wand. These are not associated with the electricity supply. To minimize any effect from this, do not put your hand or insert any object into the clear binTMunless you have first emptied it and rinsed it out with cold water.

23 Use only identical replacement parts.

24 Do not carry out any maintenance or repair work other than that shown

in this manual or advised by the Helpline.
