Do not vacuum areas which contain moisture or water, inflammable matter, needles, pins, razor blades, matches, cigarette-ends, etc., since they may damage the cleaner or dust bag.
Make sure a dust bag and a motor protection filter are always inserted.
When rewinding the power cord, hold the plug body before pressing the cord rewind button to prevent whipping.
Do not pull the power cord out beyond the red mark.
This product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug fits 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 safety purpose of the polarized plug.
This vacuum cleaner should only be used for normal dry household dust and dirt. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by use or operation of the cleaner contrary to these instructions. If the cleaner is wrongly used for a purpose other than that for which it is intended, no liability can be accepted for any possible damage.
