¥Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If vacuum clea ner is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged,Êleft outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center before using.

¥Do not pull or carry by cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges orÊcorners. Do not run vacuum cleaner over cord. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

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

¥Do not use extension cords or outlets with inadequate current carrying capacity.

¥Turn off all controls before unplugging.

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

¥Do not handle plug or vacuum cleaner with wet hands.

¥Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, andÊanything that may reduce airflow.

¥This vacuum cleaner creates suction. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, andÊall parts of body away from openings and moving parts.

¥Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

¥Do not use without dust bag in place.

¥Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.

¥Do not use to pick up flammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline, or use in areas where they may be present.

¥Store your cleaner in a cool, dry area.

¥Keep your work area well lighted.

¥Unplug electrical appliances before vacuuming them.

¥For Household use only.

¥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 into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Thermal Cut Off

This vacuum cleaner has a special thermostat that protects the cleaner in case of motor overheating. If the cleaner suddenly shuts off, push the on/off switch off (O) and unplug the cleaner. Check the cleaner for a possible source of overheating such as a full dust bag, a blocked hose or clogged filter. If these conditions are found, fix them and wait at least 30 minutes before attempting to use the cleaner. After the 30 minute period, plug the cleaner back in and push the on/off switch on (I). If the cleaner still does not run, then take it to a Eureka Authorized Service Center for repair.

Congratulations, youÕve bought the Harmony. The quiet vacuum that gives you the freedom to clean when you want.

But how do we build a quiet vaccuum?

It starts with the motor, which is engineered to keep high-pitched noises to a minimum. We also make ample use of multiple layers of insulation to dampen noise further. Additional insulation near the air passageways also reduces the tell-tale sound of turbulent air flow.

Design plays a part as well. Air ducts are aerodynamic and parts fit snugly to keep air inside and noise to a minimum. Ingeniously, that tight construction also creates maximum pull at the nozzle.

Multiple tasks. One smart machine.

Controlling noise doesnÕt mean you have to sacrifice power. In fact, the Harmony works brilliantly on both carpet and hard surfaces. And itÕs able to move between the two with a simple flip of the switch Ð from the foot Ð without bending or interrupting your cleaning.

The length of the wand can easily be adjusted with one hand. Plus, the nozzle rides close to the floor, making it possible to vacuum under furniture as well as further reducing noise.

Intrinsic to a quiet vacuum is its ability to move around with a minimum of fuss. Wheels on the Harmony are soft, gentler on your floor and quieter. And the vacuum weighs a slight 12 pounds, which not only aids in swift maneuvering but makes it easier to carry and store once your work is done.

Overlook no detail.

And of course, the Harmony is equipped with a full complement of accessories Ð a dusting brush, upholstery nozzle and crevice nozzle Ð all of which store smartly within easy reach. But theyÕre not just designed for hard-to-get-to floor surfaces. They allow you to care for other items in your home Ð furniture and upholstery, for example Ð and increase their longevity.

The Harmony has an incredible ability to trap the smallest of dust particles. ItÕs equipped with a HEPA H12 filter that makes the air exiting the vacuum cleaner than any air that went in. Debris is caught in the easy-to-change s-bagª, and an indicator removes any guesswork about changing the bag. You can even sign up for our dust bag subscription program at electrolux.com.

ItÕs about cleaning. And your life.

So as you can see, thereÕs quite bit of innovative thinking that goes into a vacuum like this. ItÕs using new technology to improve and streamline the cleaning process. And this, in turn, makes your home more enjoyable. In this case, itÕs a vacuum quiet enough to be used any time of day or night. After all, you shouldnÕt have to schedule your life around cleaning.

We understand that everyone appreciates a clean home. And we know how to make sure itÕs done exceptionally well. In fact, we have 80 years of experience in bringing innovation into consumersÕ homes so they can just that. As youÕll soon find out, our products combine traditional craftsmanship with advanced materials, creating durable vacuums that clean your home quickly and efficiently.
