IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

General Warnings

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

Read all instructions before using this vacuum cleaner

WARNING! To reduce the risk of ﬁre, electric shock, or injury:

• The vacuum is intended for household use only.

• Use the vacuum only as described in this manual.

• Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

Environment

Use of the vacuum outdoors or on wet surfaces may result in damage to the appliance and void the warranty. Do not use outdoors or on wet surfaces.

Use of the vacuum on stairs may cause imbalance, slippage or tumbling. Always check your balance and ensure your footing when cleaning on stairs.

Use of the vacuum in an enclosed space containing ﬂammable, explosive materials or toxic vapors may result in an unexpected spark or ﬁre. Do not use the vacuum in such an enclosed space. Always check exposed wiring and wire connections before use.

Operation

This appliance has powerful suction capability. Do not allow it to be used as a toy and always maintain close attention when used by or near children.

Loose clothing, jewelry and long hair may become entangled in the suction of the vacuum and cause personal injury. Always keep loose clothing, jewelry, ﬁngers and all parts of body away from openings.

Use of the vacuum with an opening blocked may reduce airﬂow. Keep all openings free of dust, lint, hair etc. Ensure the ﬁlter bag assembly is in place before use.

Improper handling of the power cord may result in wiring, connection damage and potential sparking or shock. Always follow these instructions when handling the power cord:

• Do not pull or carry the vacuum by the cord

• Do not use the cord as a handle

• Do not unplug the vacuum by pulling on the cord

• Do not close a door on the cord

• Do not pull the cord around sharp edges or corners

• Keep the cord away from heated surfaces

• Do not run the vacuum or other appliance over the cord

• Always grasp the plug, not the cord, when unplugging the vacuum

A damaged cord or plug may cause a spark, shock and ﬁre. Always check the cord and plug before use. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center or call customer service at: U.S.: 1-800-989-3535 Canada: 1-888-676-7325.

Using the vacuum with wet hands and on wet surfaces may result in unexpected shock, slippage and personal injury. Do not handle the plug or appliance with wet hands or on wet surfaces.

Vacuuming burning or smoking objects, ﬂammable or combustible liquids and toxic material may result in a ﬁre and personal injury. Do not vacuum burning or smoking objects, ﬂammable or combustible liquids.

Unplugging the vacuum while the controls are ON may cause sparking and ﬁre. Turn OFF all controls before unplugging. Do not leave appliance unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.

Polarized Plug Notice

This product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will ﬁt into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to ﬁt, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the polarized plug.
