and before cleaning or servicing.

• 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;
keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce air flow.

• 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 stairs
on floor. Do not place cleaner on stairs or furniture, as it may result in injury
or damage.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF DAMAGE:
GROUNDING
OUTLET BOX
• 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.
• Brushroll continues to turn while product is turned on and handle is in upright
position. To avoid damage to carpet, rugs, furniture and flooring, avoid tipping cleaner or setting it on furniture, fringed area rugs, or carpeted stairs.
• 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.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor (C) and grounding plug (A). The plug must be
inserted into an appropriate outlet (B) that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if
you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and
has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug (A) illustrated in Fig. 1. A temporary
adapter (D) may be used to connect this
plug to a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a properly
grounded outlet is not available (Fig. 2).
The temporary adapter should be used
only until a properly grounded outlet (B)
can be installed by a qualified electrician
(Fig. 1). The green colored rigid ear, lug,
or the like (F) extending from the adapter
must be connected to a permanent ground
(G) such as a properly grounded outlet box cover
(Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter is used, it must be
held in place by a metal screw. NOTE: In Canada, the
use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the
Canadian Electrical Code.
