to place fingers or other objects into any openings.
• Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended
attachments and products.
• 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,
take it to a service center prior to continuing use.
• 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 place product on cord. 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 plug or appliance with wet hands.
• Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked;

• Turn off all controls before unplugging.
• Use extra care when cleaning on stairs. To avoid personal injury or damage,
and to prevent the cleaner from falling, always place cleaner at bottom of

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

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGE:
• Avoid picking up hard, sharp objects with this product, as they may cause damage.
• Store appropriately indoors in a dry place. Do not expose machine to freezing
temperatures.
• Do not use sharp objects to clean out hose as they can cause damage.
• With brushroll on, do not allow cleaner to sit in one location for an extended period
of time, as damage to floor can result.
A Thermal Protector has been designed into your cleaner to protect it from overheating. When the
thermal protector activates the cleaner will stop running.
If this happens proceed as follows:
1. Turn cleaner OFF and unplug it from the electrical outlet.
2. Empty dirt cup.
3. Inspect the nozzle inlet, hose connector, hose, dirt cup inlet, cyclonic filter, rinsable filter, and
HEPA filter for any obstructions. Clear obstructions if present.
When cleaner is unplugged and motor has cooled for 30 minutes, the thermal protector will deactivate
and cleaning may continue.
If the thermal protector continues to activate after following the above steps, your cleaner
needs servicing.
