IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Your safety is important to us. To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, injury to persons, or damage when using your vacuum cleaner, follow basic safety precautions including the following:

READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE ASSEMBLING OR USING YOUR VACUUM CLEANER.

Use your vacuum cleaner only as described in this manual. Use only with supplied attachments.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

Disconnect electrical supply before servicing or cleaning out brush area. Failure to do so could result in electric shock or brush suddenly starting.

Always turn vacuum cleaner off before connecting or disconnecting the hose.

Always turn vacuum cleaner off before unplugging.

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

Do not use with damaged cord or plug.

If the vacuum cleaner is not working properly due to the unit being dropped, damaged, left outdoors or submerged in water do not use.

Do not pull or carry the vacuum using the cord. Do not allow the cord to be caught underneath the vacuum while using. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.

Do not leave the vacuum plugged in when you are not using it.

Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.

Do not operate or unplug the vacuum with wet hands.

Do not put any object 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.

Do not use the vacuum cleaner without the dust tank and filters properly placed.

Always clean the dust tank and filters after using the vacuum on carpet cleaners, fresheners or fine dirt such as drywall dust. These products clog the filter, reduce airflow, and can cause damage to the vacuum cleaner. Failure to clean the dust tank could result in permanent damage to the vacuum cleaner.

Do not use the vacuum cleaner to pick up sharp hard objects, such as small toys, thumbtacks, paper clips and other similar objects. These may damage the vacuum cleaner or other internal parts.

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

Do not use vacuum cleaner to pick up flammable or combustible liquids (gasoline, cleaning fluids, perfumes, etc.), or use in areas where they may be present. The fumes from these substances can create a fire hazard or explosion.

Use extra care when cleaning stairs. Do not set the vacuum on chairs or tables, always keep the unit on the floor.

You are responsible for making sure that your vacuum cleaner is not used by anyone unable to operate it properly.
