IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUC
TIONS
Read all instructions in this guide before assembling or using your vacuum cleaner.
Your safety is important to us. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury to persons or damage when using your vacuum cleaner, follow basic safety precautions including the following:
WARNING:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Proper assembly and safe use of your vacuum cleaner are your responsibilities. Your vacuum cleaner is intended for Household use. Read this Use & Care Guide carefully for important use and safety information. This guide contains safety statements under warning and caution symbols.
Use your vacuum cleaner only as described in this guide. Use only with Sears recommended attachments.
Do not leave vacuum cleaner when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before performing servicing.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock - Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
Do not use with a damaged cord or plug. If vacuum cleaner is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped in water, return it to a Sears 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 vacuum cleaner 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 vacuum cleaner with wet hands.
Do not put any objects into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep
free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.
Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from openings and moving parts.
Turn off all controls before unplugging.
Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
Do not put on chairs, tables, etc. Keep on floor.
Do not use vacuum cleaner to pick up flammable or combustible liquids (gasoline, cleaning fluid, perfumes, etc.), or use in areas where they may be present. The fumes from these substances can create a fire hazard or explosion.
Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
Do not use vacuum cleaner without dust bin and/or filters in place.
Always empty the dust bin after vacuuming carpet cleaners or freshener, powders, and fine dust. These products clog the filters, reduce airflow and can cause damage to the vacuum cleaner. Failure to do so could cause permanent damage to the vacuum cleaner.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner to pick up sharp hard objects, small toys, pins, paper clips, etc. They may damage the vacuum cleaner.
Do not operature the vacuum cleaner without the exhaust filter and filter door in place.
Hold plug when rewinding onto cord reel. Do not allow plug to whip when rewinding.
You are responsible for making sure that your vacuum cleaner is not used by anyone unable to operate it properly.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Pull cord out of canister to desired
length.
NOTE: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this vacuum cleaner 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 the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
HOW TO START
WARNING
Personal Injury and Product Damage Hazard
• DO NOT plug in if switch is in ON position. Personal injury or property damage could result.
• The cord moves rapidly when rewinding. Keep children away and provide a clear path when rewinding the cord to prevent personal injury.
• DO NOT use outlets above counters. Damage from cord to items in surrounding area could occur.

stop using the product immediately and disconnect the power plug.

SUGGESTED SWEEPING PATTERN
For best cleaning action, the floor brush should be pushed straight away from you and pulled straight back. At the end of each pull stroke, the direction of the nozzle should be changed to point into the next section to be cleaned. This pattern should be continued across the carpet with slow, gliding motions.
NOTE: Fast, jerky strokes do not provide complete cleaning.
HOSE SWIVEL
The hose swivel allows the hose to turn without moving the canister. This is helpful for cleaning in small areas. Check hose for twisting before pulling canister.
VACUUMING TIPS
WARNING
Personal Injury and Product Damage Hazard
• DO NOT pull plug from wall by
the power cord. If there is damage to the cord or plug, personal injury or property damage could result.
STAIRS
For best cleaning results, keep the airflow
passage open. Check each assembly area, in REMOVING CLOGS (page 12), occasion­ally for clogs. Turn off and unplug from
outlet before checking.
WARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
Use care if canister is placed on stairs. It may fall, causing personal injury or property damage.
CAUTION
Product Damage Hazard
Do not pull on the hose to move the canister from one stair to the next. When finished cleaning in one area use the handle grip on the canister to move the vacuum cleaner to a new location for further cleaning.

PERFORMANCE FEATURES
THERMAL PROTECTOR
This vacuum cleaner has a thermal protector which automatically trips to protect the vacuum cleaner from overheating.
If a clog prevents the normal flow of air to the motor, the thermal protector turns the motor off automatically. This allows the motor to cool in order to prevent possible damage to the vacuum cleaner.
To correct problem: Turn off and unplug vacuum cleaner to allow the vacuum cleaner to cool and the thermal protector to reset. Check for and
remove clogs, if necessary. See REMOVING CLOGS (page 12). Also check and replace any clogged filters. Wait approximately thirty (30) minutes and plug the vacuum cleaner in and turn back on to check if the thermal protector has reset.
HOSE STAND
The vacuum cleaner with the floor nozzle, wand, and hose can be stored while still connected.
NOTE: The wand must be in the shortest position
1. Stand the vacuum cleaner up and insert the wand holder into the wand holder hole.
2. Hold the hose and wind it around the wand.
WARNING
Personal Injury and Product Damage Hazard
DO NOT carry the vacuum cleaner while it is in the storage position. Injury or damage may result if the hose or extension pipe becomes unattached.
